Hey Kind Friend (guitars)
-Amy Ray
4/4 time
Part One: Amy's guitar
Part Two: Emily's dulcimer
*NOTE FROM ME: You absolutely NEED to listen to the
album to get the hang of this, especially for the outro
and for the dulcimer part. Excuse any and all typos.
Ok, enjoy! =)
Part Three: Amy's guitar, also, I believe
-------------------------------
_Parts One & Three_

E: 022100
_GUITAR RIFF ONE_:
D---2---2---4---4-l---0---0---2---2-l
A-0---0---0---0---l---------0---0---l
E-----------------l-3---2-----------l
*** intro = 10 measures. Riff one starts at the first
measure and continues until Part three enters
(part three is the chords at the bridge and chorus).
Guitar one should (also) play Part Three. ***
*** vocal comes in at eleventh measure ***
Hey kind friend
I don't know when I'll see you again
on a ferry boat bound to Victoria
layin' down to hide from the wind
Big Dipper hangin' over the city
and everything now is different for me
and it ain't no use in explainin'
the scenery
Esus
I said hey kind friend
A
Help me forget where I've been
Esus
Hey kind friend remember who I am
I was too late in Spokane
So I caught a ride through the Cascade range
I saw the sun die in Olympia
Running down on Capital Lake
Now I ask you for some relief
it's one true route that you bring to me
it's 3 am, and it's good company
Esus E A
I said hey kind friend help me forget where I've been
Esus E A
Hey kind friend help me remember who I am
Esus E A
Hey kind friend, don't know if I'm gonna see you again
Esus E A
it's okay friend, it's okay friend
*bridge*
A x3
Esus E A A x6
Esus E A (hold)
*** 4 measures of only part two, then 8 measures of part
one and part two, and then two measures of only part
one. ***
So I'll meet you in New Orleans
I'll see you around
'Cause I don't know if it's worth comin' down
and callin' from a gold rush town
Esus E A
And I said hey kind friend help me forget where I've been
Esus E A
Hey kind friend help me remember who I am
Esus E A
Hey kind friend, said I don't know if I'm gonna see you again
Esus E A
it's okay friend, I'm okay friend
Esus Esus (stop)
I said I'm okay friend, I'm okay friend.
*** THE OUTRO ***
After the last "I'm okay", and starting on the word "friend",
Part One ceases to exist for four measures. On the fifth
measure, Part Two rests for two measure when Riff One picks
back up. The both continue until they fade out into
nothing . . .
