Here At The Right Time by Josh Ritter
Here At The Right Time
Capo:no capo
Normal Tuning.
Intro: C Am C Am…
With the intro chords I like to pluck the e string on the 3rd fret and open on
the e
to mimic the sound of the piano. You’ll have to listen to it and pick up the
rhythm for yourself.
…Am C
Under wide blue skies
Am
There¹s a place to lie
F G C * back to intro Am C Am…
For me and Evelyn to hide tonight
…Am C
I¹ll try my best to make a go
Am
But I¹m not sure what I don¹t know
F G C
Oh chariots, if you¹re out there Please swing low
C F
Tell me I got here at the right time
G C C/B
If I did it¹s probably the first time
Am F
No second guesses or secret signs
G C * back to intro Am C Am…
Tell me I got here at the right time
…Am C
You¹re so red in the eyes
Am
Either too low or too high
F G C
When I met you you Were sick but you did not know why
…Am C
I was a pretty poor cure
Am
But my love for you was always sure
F G C
The bucket was broken But the water was pure
C F
Tell me I got here at the right time
G C C/B
If I did it¹s probably the first time
Am F
No second guesses or secret signs
G C
Tell me I got here at the right time
C F
Tell me I got here at the right time
G C C/B
If I did it¹s probably the first time
Am F
No second guesses or secret signs
G C
Tell me I got here at the right time
Repeat Intro

version 2
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
Standard Tuning
The song is pretty repettative so once you get the picking down the rest
should come easily.
The only tricky part is figuring out at wich point of the song to start
singing the lyrics.
Listen to the acoustic track, or any of Josh's live performances, to get the
rhythm down.

[Verse 1]
Under wide blue skies
There’s a place to lie
For me and Evelyn to hide tonight
I’ll try my best to make a go
But I’m not sure what I don’t know
Chariots, if you’re out there, please swing low
[Chorus]
Tell me I got here at the right time
And if I did, it’s probably the first time
No second guesses or secret signs
Tell me I got here at the right time
[Verse 2]
You’re so red in the eyes
Either too low or too high
When I met you, you were sick but you did not know why
I was a pretty poor cure
But my love for you was always sure
The bucket was broken, but the water was pure
[Chorus, 2x]
See Josh Ritter Live
Get tickets as low as $67
[Fadeout]
Tell me I got
Tell me I got here at the right time
Tell me I got
Tell me I got here at the right time
