Capo: 3
Firecracker – Ryan Adams Written by Ryan Adams/Van Alston Tabbed by: JohnJoe Walters E-mail:johnjoewalters@hotmail.co.uk From the album “Suicide Handbook” Tuning:EADGBE Capo: 3rd Fret Chords (relative to Capo): 320003 G 332010 C 554030 D* (Dsus2sus4?) XX0232 D X02210 Am 022000 Em NB - A different version from the one on “Gold”. Three main differences are the tempo (slower), lyrics, and a little guitar riff used in the intro and in between verse lines. This little riff is just the notes B, C and D on the B string over a G chord. The way I play it is around the G chord shape, thus: ‘RIFF’ with/over G chord e|-X--X--X--X--X---| B|-0--1-—3--1--0---| G|-0--0--0--0--0---| D|-0--0--0--0--0---| A|-2--2--2--2--2---| E|-3--3--3--3--3---| Concentrating on the ‘B’ String but holding the shape for ease and accuracy. Intro: ‘RIFF’ G x 3 then harmonica over G C D* G x 2 Verse 1:
GBirds sing slow and softly sComeplace D*in my miGnd G C D* G (F#) Hey Louisiana she’s with me tonight EmWell everybody wants to Cgo forGever
EmI just want to burn up Chard and bGright EmI just want to be your fCirecrackDer AmMaybe be your baby toniCght, Ammaybe be your baby CtonigD*ht G
RIFF G x 3 Verse 2:
GBroken bluesy whispers sCing to D*me toniGght G C D* G (F#) Takes my hand for something kisses slow and nice EmWell everybody wants to Cgo forGever EmI just want to burn up Chard and bGright EmI just want to be your fCirecrackDer AmMaybe be your baby toniCght, Ammaybe be your baby CtonigD*ht G
Then harmonica over G C D* G x 2 Bridge: G (F#) Em So when does the plane go down (F#) G ‘Cos I’m gonna ride it ‘til it hits the ground Am (B) C D G Go out with a fight ‘cos I just want to be your baby tonight RIFF G x 3 then harmonica over G C D* G x 2 ENDS with a little run down C B A on 5th string and E then G on 6th i.e. e|-X--X--X--X--X---| B|-X--X-—X--X--X---| G|-X--X--X--X--X---| D|-X--X--X--X--X---| A|-3--2--0--X--X---| E|-X--X--X--0--3---| then finish with chords C G Please enjoy! ************
