The Bitter End - Chapman Jones 10-30-2011 ***************************************************** No Capo Full Step Down - Em
Em............................................G I left you a note written by my tears D.........................................Am Dripping on the paper in between the beers I told you how I loved you, how you broke my heart How you put me on a ghost ship adrift in the dark (Cape Fear) Don't look for me to swim to your shores again If you can't tell girl, this is the end
.................C...............G This is the end, the end .........D.....................Em We'll never be in love again ...................C............G This is the end, the end D...................Em It's the bitter end
You left me a treasure chest of nightmare dreams Covered in the blood of a love that screams In the green murky depths off the coast of Cape Fear I'm sinking like a stone thrown over the pier Don't look for me to swim to your shores again If you can't tell girl, this is the end
This is the end, the end We'll never be in love again This is the end, the end It's the bitter end
[Lead Break - one verse round]
C.............................................................. And if you ever thought I'd reclaim your heart I'd sail the seven seas like a psycho shark Until I make my way to the edge of the world Where I'd fall over to be free of you girl
Well, I sunk every thing I had in you babe All you ever did was steal my heart and trade It in for another lover's hand to hold Well, let me tell you sweetheat, it's getting old Don't look for me to swim to your shores again If you can't tell girl, this is the end
This is the end, the end We'll never be in love again This is the end, the end It's the bitter end
This is the end, the end We'll never be here again This is the end, the end It's the bitter end

The intro lead guitar has that good bad and ugly vibe to it......once the vocals kick it's more of a Americana/country rock sound...which I like a lot. Good lyric!

<p>Been playing music since Hector was a pup. Nothin' fancy. Just like a thousand other musicians. Simple music. Easy on the ears music. No high and mighty cause. Just good ol' driving music. Like the 8-Track tapes we used to have. Just plug it in, play and drive. And Bill Gates thought he invented plug-n-play. I write music that you can put in and forget about it. It plays. And then next time you hit the road, you look for my work because it makes you feel good when you're driving. It's comfortable. I've done the church choir, school choir, studied piano during grade school. Plunked on the drums in my formative years and then heard Dylan. That sold me. Folk music was where it was at. And that's where I stayed the next 30 some odd years. I never played an electric guitar until 2005. So, in keeping with my folk spirit, I copped on a Rickenbacker 360/12. I was looking for a new old sound. I was looking for the jangle. The jangle tones from the 60's. Love that jangle. Live for the jangle. A lot of folks might wince in pain at the mention of the 60's folk/rock sound but the tones are to die for. The wind swept chiming guitars. The rootsy melodies. The simple down to earth lyrics. Few new musicians carry on the tradition these days. I've spent lot of time with Dylan, Prine, Lightfoot, Doc Watson and more recently The Heartbreakers, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, The Big "O" as in Orbison and John Cash. Of course, that is figuratively speaking. All these folks have influenced me more than any other musicians or music styles. I'm hopin' when all is said and done, it wasn't a bad thing.
