A           E                  D
 I've never been too good with names
A           E/G#           G             D/F#
 The cellar door was open, I could never stay away
A            E              D
 I know it's probaly not my place
A            E/G#           G            D/F#
 It's either or, I'm hoping for a simple way to say
 
[Chorus]
A       E           D
 It's a shame about Ray
A       E/G#             G                 D/F#
 In the stone, under the dust, his name is still engraved
A            E           D
 Some things need to go away
A       E/G#        G  D/F#   F   F   F   F
 It's a shame about Ray

 I'll know tomorrow not to leave my feelings out on display
A             E               D
 I'll put the cobwebs back in place
A           E/G#              G            D/F#
 I've never been to good with names, but I remember faces

 In the stone, under the dust, his name is still engraved

This isn't REALLY a correction, because you've got it right there, but the E/G# can be played like an open E chord... And it still sounds right.

I love the cords. better than I could have dreamed. I love the progression. In my ignorance, I can imagen that the band shared the cords with us!

Good tab, the E/G# can be played more easily as 4xx454 (use your thumb on the low E)
