Artist: Bayside
Song: Megan (Acoustic)
After looking for the chords, I found the other set on the website. They were wrong,
corrected them, they seem ok to me.
These were worked out on a piano, and will probably sound even better when played on a guitar.
INTRO A Ab/A F#m F#m/E X2
A A/Ab
Butter on a summer day
F#m
When she's around
F#m/E
I was on the tracks
D
When the gate came down
A A/Ab
Suddenly I recognized
F#m F#m/E D
Those bloodshot rearview mirror eyes as mine
F#m E D
I heard that whistle call my name
F#m E D
I almost drove away
Chorus:
Am Db
But Megan I
E F#m B
had a feeling that you would be on that train
D E
So I just waited there for you
A A/Ab
Caught a ride to another town
F#m
Where the air was clean
F#m/E D
And the sun never goes down
A A/Ab
Everyone was standing in a line
F#m F#m/E D
Between the landing and the stairs
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/bayside/megan_crd_ver_2.html ]
F#m E D
I heard somebody call my name
F#m E D
I almost climbed the stairs
Am Db
But Megan I
E F#m B
had a feeling that someday you'd meet me there
D E
So I just waited there for you
SOLO: Chorus Chords x2
A A/Ab
Butter on a summer day
F#m
When I hear that name
F#m/E D
It's a dream that never came true
A A/Ab
Sat down on the tracks
F#m F#m/E D
And waited for a train to take me back to you
F#m E D
Somebody came and took my hand
F#m E D
I finally had to go
Am Db
But Megan I
E F#m B
just want you to know
D E
That I waited as long as I could
A A/E F#m
Butter on a summer day when she's around
END
NB. In the vereses, I found it also works than instead of changing to the F#m chord, you
stay on the A chord, and simply change the bass note. This is personal preference only
I suppose.
