SONG STRUCTURE:
-->play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x2)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (both x1) over:
Well the fact of the matter
There aren't no back seat found
Take it further
It doesn't matter
Well out here on the border
Ants drag bones across the hot dry ground
Told me there at the trailer park
They got a million souls at the lost and found
-->Play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x1)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (both x1) over:
Well you should have known better
Dead thoughts and lost horizons
And to take it further
It don't get any better
Well out here on the border
Ain't nobody asking questions
No I don't need a miracle
But I could use a push in the right direction
-->Play rythym 3 (x1) over:
Handgun and a bottle of booze
and a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
Left from Boise Idaho 95
So when they crossed the state line
They were just in time to fall
Asleep at the wheel
-->Solo for 16 bars over rythym 2 (x1)
-->Play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x1)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (x1) over:
Last back doesn't matter
Never was no back seat found
And to take it further
It never really matters
Well out here on the border
Ants drag bones across the hot dry ground
Told me there at the trailer park
They got a million souls at the lost and found
-->Play rythym 3 (x2) over:
Handgun and a bottle of booze
And a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
Left from Boise Idaho 95
So I was just in time to miss
The 5:00 o'clock news
Velvet black Interstate is something that appeals to me
5:99 and a stone cold feelin'
I had a bottle of wine
I was feelin' just fine
And when I crossed the state line
I was just in time
To fall asleep at the wheel
-->Solo for 16 bars over rythym 2 (x1)
-->Solo over rythym 3 (x4) and:
Handgun and a bottle of booze
And a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
Left from Boise Idaho 95
So I was just in time to miss
The 5:00 o'clock news
Velvet black Interstate is something that appeals to me
5:99 and a stone cold feelin'
I had a bottle of wine
I was feelin' just fine
And when I crossed the state line
I was just in time
To fall
Handgun and a bottle of booze
And a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
Left from Boise Idaho 95
So I was just in time to miss
The 5:00 o'clock news
Velvet black Interstate is something that appeals to me
5:99 and a stone cold feelin'
I had a bottle of wine
I was feelin' just fine
And when I crossed the state line
I was just in time
To fall asleep at the wheel
-->Solo over rythym 3 (x1) and fade

version 2
INTRO:
The chords in the beginning are GM-Em-C9-GM. You can play them with the lead figure by using two guitars,
by using one guitar - just strum the bass notes of the chords and then play the the lead figure right afterwards.
Lead Figure:
e--3-2----0--------------------------------------|
B--3---3----3------------------------------------|
G--0-----0----0----------------------------------|
D------------------------------------------------|
A------------------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------------------|
Lead Figure with Chords:
e----3-2-----0---------3-2----0----------3-2----0-----|
B----3---3-----3-------3---3----3--------3---3----3---|
G----0-----0-----0-----0-----0----0--(0)-0-----0----0-|
D--0-----------------2----------------2---------------|
A--2-----------------2----------------3---------------|
E--3-----------------0--------------------------------|
And then he goes to this little thing here to finish off:
e-------------------------------|
B--3/6--3--0---------1/3\1---0--|
G--2/4--2--0------0--2/4\2-0-0--|
D-------------0h2---------------|
A-------------------------------|
E-------------------------------|
VERSE:
The verse is four chords: Em-CM-Am-CM, then Em-CM-Am-DM. Every time he plays the A minor chord, he does
hammer-on:
e--0----|
B--0h1--|
G--2----|
D--2----|
A--0----|
E-------|
And with the D Major, for the last chord, he does this:
e--2-3-2--| (alternate F# and G)
B--3------|
G--2------|
D--0------|
A---------|
E---------|
The strumming pattern for the verse is pretty easy to follow--just go with what feels natural.
CHORUS:
The chorus is more involved, but it's the same concept as the beginning. The top notes of the G Major
stay throughout most of it, and the bass notes walk down by step.

e-------3--3-------3--3--------3--3---------------------|
B-------3--3-------3--3--------3--3---------------------|
G-------0--0-------0--0--------0--0---------------------|
D--0--0-------0--0------2--2-2-2--0---------------------|
A--2--2-------X--X------3--3-3--------------------------|
E--3--3-------2--2------0--0-0--------------------------|

e-------3--3-------3--3--3--3-3--3-------------------|
B-------3--3-------3--3--3--3-3--3-------------------|
G-------0--0-------0--0--0--0-0--0-------------------|
D--0--0-------0--0-------2--2-2--2-------------------|
A--2--2-------X--X-------3--3-3--3-------------------|
E--3--3-------2--2-----------------------------------|
Then you go to the A minor hammer-on, and then to C Major (keep strumming like the rest):
e--0---------0------------|
B--0h1-------1------------|
G--2---------0------------|
D--2---------2------------|
A--0---------3------------|
E-------------------------|
And then, after that, you go back to the verse chord progression again. The guitar solo and the vocals
of overlap, and then the solo takes over.
