CAPO 1

 This is the first song off of ‘The Shade Of Poison Trees’. It’s a pretty simple song,
here you go enjoy! You can figure out the strum pattern. I’m using my finger to mute the
on purpose in order to make the sound match the cd recording.

THIS IS FOR THE RHYTHEM GUITAR MEANT TO BE PA YED G  O

Intro:  G  C9 Em7 A


G
Step on the stage

     C9
The lights the praise

    Em7
The curtain calls

        A
And the big parade

G                  C9             Em7   A
You know that life all too well


G
The promise the pain

    C9
The valor the rage

Em7
Hold up your hands

        A
For the bow and the wave

G
You know his touch

  C9                  Em7     A
A little too well


Em7
You throw yourself

D/F#
Into their arms

G               C9
Mistresses have all the fun

Em7               D/F#              G
But no one's ever there to take you home


G
Box up your gloves and your

C9
Down coats

Em7
Bound for the sun and the

A
West coast

G                 C9                   Em7        A
Where upper crust tragedies abound

G
A tip for the girl at the

C9
Coat check

Em7
The guy at the door and the

A
Bar back

G
They know your face

C9            Em7    A
Oh so well


Em7              D/F#
But movies never made you famous

G                   C9
All your dreams got lost or traded

Em7              D/F#                G       C9
And all you ever cared about got lost

Em7              D/F#
But you were surely still an actress

G                   C9
Older men would find attractive

Em7              D/F#                G       C9
And all you ever cared about got lost


G      C9


              Em7             A
Where there's gold, there's a gold digger

G
You throw yourself

C9
Into their arms

Em7             A
Mistresses have all the fun

G                 C9                Em7        A
But no one's ever there to take you home
