TURIN BRAKES - Moonlight Mile (Rolling Stones Cover) From the 'Late Night Tales' selection Tabbed by Keir Alexander OPEN G TUNING: D G D G B D [Intro and Verse] -played over the chord of G this is the main guitar sequence and is played throughout the song during the verses. As the song progresses the theme changes subtly, you can improvise in the same style at these parts and it sounds good. D|----------------------|-----------------------|------------------| B|---------------3/5 3--|--3h5 3h5 3---/10--8-5-|-3-0-3-3/5--------| G|----0h2 0h2 0--0------|--0---0---0----0---0-0-|-0---0-0---/4-----| D|----0---0---0—--------|-----------------------|------------0-----| G|----------------------|-----------------------|------------------| D|----------------------|-----------------------|------------------| -----------------------0-------| -----------------------0-------| ----0-/4---2-0---------0-------| ----0--0---0-----------0-------| ----------------0------0-------| -------------------------------| its played in a loose bluesy style, that's different to the stones version, the 0's are show that you play two stings at the same time, the string with the number and the below it. (intro) Ollie sings along the sequence which is played twice (verse) When the wind blows and the rain feels cold With a head full of snow With a head full of snow In the window there's a face you know Don't the nights pass slow Don't the nights pass slow [chorus chords] C G D D|-----5-----0-----7-----| B|-----5-----0-----7-----| G|-----5-----0-----7-----| D|-----5-----0-----7-----| G|-----5-----0-----7-----| D|-----5-----0-----7-----| (chorus)
CThe sound of strangers sending Gnothing to my mind DJust another mad madC day on the Groad I am just living to be lying by your side But I'm just about a moonlight mile on down the road (verse) Made a rag pile of my shiny clothes Gonna warm my bones Gonna warm my bones I got silence on my radio Let the air waves flow Let the air waves flow
(chorus) Oh I'm sleeping under strange strange skies Just another mad mad day on the road My dreams is fading down the railway line I'm just about a moonlight mile down the road (interlude) improvise along the same sequence
Cyeah so come Gon I'm jDust about a Cmoonlight mile on down the Groad
[Repeat sequence to end] This is a great version of a great song, its quite different from the Stones' version, are tabs for that version (in standard tuning) but after listening to the Turin Brakes I was sure that it was played in an open G tuning. Its worth trying even if you aren't used to playing in a different tuning. keiralx@yahoo.co.uk
