Out of Summertime - Scotty McCreery
Tabbed by: Kahsm
Tuning: Standard
I'm by no means great at tabbing by ear, and this would be the first ever that I post,
but this song didn't seem to exist yet and this version worked out for me in impressing a
girl who, for some reason, adores Scottie. So I hope someone else might be able to use
it too.
Use a fast country feeling picking pattern through the verse to get that banjo feel,
with a few hammer-ons here and there. I kinda like 5 3 4 2 as a base pattern, but I vary _a
lot_ through the song. It should be quite brisk, I get through that 4 times between
"Duquoin" to "fair".
Actually I just tried it and it's more like... | 5 R 3 2 | h> 4 3 2 | 5 34 [1'3' 2] or
[2'4' 3] |
very light tap on transitional ' '-ed strings between beats
"34" is half notes, hit string 3 then 4 twice as quickly than in the other measures
Anyway, just trying to give you an idea of how I try to get the right feel given these
chords which may be horribly wrong. Good Luck!
It's the CDuquoin, Illinois county fair
I could still see you standing there F like a dreaCm
Flatbed stage on a little dirt track
She was second row, her hair pulled back
We were F young and fCree
G [hit 6th string string once then strum down on "Oh" similar for the F
everytime this part happens]
Oh, she could've been mine
F (let ring) C
But we ran out of summertiiiiiime
Spent a Cfew weeks out on a lake shore beach
Carved our names high as we could reach F on an old wooden Cpier
We made plans we planned to keep
300 miles from her to me and her F senior yeCar
GOh, she could've been mine
F (let ring, then build to chorous with single strums)
But we ran out of summertime
C [half strum half pick to ge a full sound without losing the twangy feel]
And of all the things I let get away
She's the one that keeps me awake at nFight C
And I've never seen days go by so fast
A little more sand falling through the glass
She was Fhot as July and sweet as sunCshine
GOh, she could've been mine
But Fwe ran out of summertiiiiCiime
If the Cdays had only stayed that long
And those autumn leaves didn't have to fall F
Oh, we'd have fell in Clove
'Cause what we felt on that Ferris wheel
Was just too right and just too real F
But just not long enCough
GOh, she could've been mine
F [let ring, then build to chorous with single strums]
But we ran out of summertime
And of Call the things I let get away
She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C
And I've never seen days go by so fast
A little more sand falling through the glass
She was Fhot as July, sweet as sunCshine
GOh, she could've been mine
But Fwe ran out of summertiiiCiime
C [very clean picking for this section]
And of all the things I let get away
She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C
And I've never seen days go by so fast
A little more sand falling through the glass
F sweet as sunCshine
C [back to half and half]
And of all the things I let get away
She's the one that keeps me awake at Fnight C
And I've never seen days go by so fast
A little more sand falling through the glass
She was Fhot as July, sweet as sunCshine
GOh, she could've been mine
But Fwe ran out of summertime
