Stringman : Unplugged
F C Bb C x4
F
You can say the soul is gone
Dm/G
And the feelings just not there
Bb C F C Bb C
Not like it was so long ago
F
On the empty page before you
Dm/G
You can fill in what you care
Bb C F C Bb C
Try to make it good before you go
Take the simple case of the sarge
Who wouldn't go back to war
Because the hippies tore down every -
Thing that he was fighting for
Or the lovers on the blanket
The city turned to whores
With memories of green kissed by the sun
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/neil_young/stringman_crd.html ]
You can say the soul is gone
And close another page
Just be sure that yours is not the one
F C Bb C
Bb F
And I'm singing for the stringman
Bb F
Who lately lost his wife
Bb Dm
There is no dearer friend of mine
C F
That I know in this life
On his shoulder is a violin
For his head where chaos reigns
But his heart can't find a simple way
To live with all those things
F C Bb C
All those things
F C Bb C
He's a stringman
F C Bb C
A stringman
F C Bb C
F
All those strings to pull
F C Bb C x4
