John Jameson - The White Buffalo
Tabbed by: SnowLeopard84
Tuning: Standard
This is my first tab, I love this song and couldn't find the chords anywhere, so I decided to work it out. It's
a simple song to play once you work out when to lift certain strings on certain chords.
When playing C chord in the intro and verses The White Buffalo releases the D string at times, and he releases
the G string when playing the last few strums of the F chord in the intro and verses, too. Listen to the song
to get the rhythm. The only part of the song where her doesn't seem to release any strings during chords is
the 'Oh I need you...' to '...there's only shame.' part near the end of the song.
For the C chord in the intro and verses he alternates between this...
e|----0------------|
B|----1------------|
G|----0------------|
D|----2------------|
A|----3------------|
E|----x------------|
...and this...
e|----0------------|
B|----1------------|
G|----0------------|
D|----0------------|
A|----3------------|
E|----x------------|
The F chord he seems to play throughout the song is this (called F(open) I think)...
e|----x------------|
B|----1------------|
G|----2------------|
D|----3------------|
A|----3------------|
E|----x------------|
...and then the last few strums of the F he plays this...
e|----x------------|
B|----1------------|
G|----0------------|
D|----3------------|
A|----3------------|
E|----x------------|

VERSE (Same pattern)
Well, I'm Csloshed and seeing the stars, Cstumbling between bars,
CCurse you Jameson, you have deCstroyed me once again.
But I Fneed you, I need you now. C
I'm CBruised and busted now, got to Cget to you somehow.
Well, I can't Cstop before I start, to Cdry this drowning heart.
Oh, I Fneed you now, I need you now. C
GI think I drank more than my fill, and Fthat explains the evil in my eye. C
I'm Clost in the middle of a drunk, I'm not Csinking, I have sunk,
To the Cshadows at your back door, you scream you Cdon't need me no more.
Oh, I Fneed you now, I need you now. C
GIn this fog there's just John and me, helFp me find the remedy tonight. C
GAnd when there's only wrong in me there's nFothing that can lead me to the light. C
Oh, I nAmeed you, like the Cflowers need the rain.
I don't Amneed you, there's no Cflowers only pain.
Behind the emFpty of your eyes I see the sCadness and the blame,
In the daFrkness of my heart, there's only shame. C C
C C ...to fade.
Well I'm sloshed and seeing the stars.
