Lake Tahoe by Sherwood




                               Lake Tahoe






Can be played with the high E and B strings on the third fret for the entire song (with 
pinkie and ring fingers), I’m not sure if this is how they play it.


Intro
G Em D C2    G Em D 
  G

							    C2
These steps they remind me of places I used to know,
    Em		   D		      G
The smell and the sand of Lake Tahoe,
    Em              D               C2			Em 
C G
The restaurants and strip malls and chimney smoke,
                        Em         D        C2
And these bricks they remind me of places I used to go,
     Em         D        G
With log cabins lining a dirt road,
     Em      D           C2					Em D G
When my obligations were in the snow,


D/F#   Em       D      C2   G
I miss home and I miss you,
             D/F#     Em       D         C2
When there's no one around and nothing to do,


And I still remember those weekends when I was nine,
And four hours seemed like a lifetime,
But look out the window son, you'll be fine,
And I traced the railroad through mountains and watched the trees,
The white powder resting on their leaves,
As I pulled a blanket over my knees,

Oh, I miss home and I miss you,
When there's no one around and nothing to do,
And I know that you're keeping busy too,
But I miss home and I miss you,

The song picks right back into the chorus with a longer chord progression.

G   Dsus4/F#   Em7       Dsus4    Cadd9   Cadd9   Em7   Dsus4
Oh, I miss     home and  I miss   you,

And I know that you're keeping busy     too,

G   Dsus4/F#   Em7       Dsus4    Cadd9   Cadd9   Em7   Dsus4
But I miss     home and  I miss   you.


and end it on G and you should have played an awesome and simple song.
