This is a real stand-out track on Tennessee Pusher, and probably the most technical one
I've seen this one live twice from about a foot away from the band, so I tried to make
as accurate as possible.
Song: Crazy Eyes
Album: Tennessee Pusher
CAPO 2
This is the main riff that is used for the vocal lines and really as a fill throughout
song:
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------3-|
B|-----------5-3---------------------------------------------------------0-|
G|0--2/4--0--0-0--2/4--2/4\2p0-2/4\2-0---------0-2-0------0------0-2-0---0-|
D|0--0----0------------0---------------2p0-0h2--------0h2----0h2-----------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------3---|
For the Verses use the main riff to accompany the vocal, but these are the base chords
you can use for Rhythm also:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/o/old_crow_medicine_show/crazy_eyes_crd.html ]
Verse 1-
G
I'm just a weary soul, I got nowhere to go
C/G G
Where I can ease my mind, nowhere can peace I find,
G
I have a troubled mind, worried all the time
C/G G
They call me crazy eyes, 'cause I can't keep from crying,
I've walked the longest mile for the darkest while,
And it kills my heart to see my people down,
They call me crazy eyes I have a troubled mind,
And a cardboard sign and a jug of wine,
C/G G
But I'll be all right,
C/G D
If I can make it through the night
Main Riff x2
Verse 2-
Say can you spare some change, I'm not the dangerous type
Just a hard-hit friend with an empty pipe
And when the morning comes, I struggle in the light
But I'll be alright, if I can just get high
Said I'll be all right,
If I can just get high,
Bridge-
C/G
Take a look at my crazy eyes,
G
Mama say if I'll be all right
C/G G
Ooooooooooh, Ooooooo-oo-oo-oooh
C/G
Take a look at my crazy ey-ey-eyes
G
Mama say if I'll be all right
C/G G
Heeeeeeey, heeeeeeeeey-e-e-heeey
Main Riff x2
I'm just a weary soul, I got nowhere to go,
Where I can ease my mind, nowhere can peace I find,
I have a troubled mind, worried all the time
They call me crazy eyes...
...'cause I can't keep from cryin'
