- No, this is not another repost due to my stupidity or typos.
- I've added the lead guitar part for the solo and the ending.
- It's not only accurate, it's also pretty easy. Have fun.

- COME ON COME ON (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
- ---------------------------------------
- [This is mostly based on Mary Chapin's performance of the song on the
- TV show "Austin City Limits" in early 1993. Thanks to Julie Tissue
- for the start.]
- [I've written this tablature as if all six strings were played on every
- chord, but that isn't really accurate. I only wrote out the tab to show
- the rhythm and fingerings.]
- [Every strum notated here is a downstroke with the thumb (no pick, no
- fingernails). There are a few upstrokes in between the downstrokes, but
- I haven't shown those.]
- [Some possible names for the chords are at the end of the file. I didn't
- put chord names about the tab because it would just be confusing. Oh,
- and the lyrics aren't lined up with the rhythm...sorry.]
- [Actually in Bb; capo 3.]
- [Tuning: DADF#GD (yes, tune your B string down to G).]

- It's a photograph taken in Paris, at the end of the honeymoon
- In 1948, late in the month of June
- Your parents smile for the camera in sienna shades of light
- Now you're older than they were then that summer night
-
- Come on come on, it's getting late now; Come on come on, take my hand
- Come on come on, you just have to whisper; Come on come on, I will understand

- It's a loss you never get over the first time you lose
-
- [instrumental solo: same chords as the chorus, except the last measure is 000020
- throughout (no 020100-020000). See tablature below for the lead guitar part.]
-
- And tonight I am thinking of someone, seventeen years ago
- We rode in his daddy's car down the river [skip two measures]
-
- (road) Come on come on, it's getting late now; Come on come on, take my hand
- Come on come on, you just have to whisper; Come on come on, I will understand
-
- Come on come on, it's getting late now; Come on come on, take my hand
- Come on come on, you just have to whisper; Come on come on, I will understand
- Come on come on
-
- [instrumental ending: same chords as chorus, but end on G (020100). Again, tab
- for the lead guitar part is at the end of the file.]
-
-
- CHORDS:
- 020100 = G/D 030100 = C(9)/D 000020 = D
- 777600 = Am7(4) 999800 = Gmaj7/B 450300 = D(4)/F#
- 020000 = Gmaj7/D 230000 = C(9)addF#/E 230100 = C(9)/E
- 222000 = Em9 [yuck!]

-
- LEAD GUITAR:
-
- In the recorded version of this song, the piano kind of dominates the
- guitar, especially in the solo. However, the version that I've transcribed
- here is from a 1993 tape of "Austin City Limits", because John Jennings'
- lead guitar part is more interesting on "ACL" than on the album. And since
- I have both video and audio for this song, it's probably the first time
- I'm 100% sure that I've got the fingerings right!
-
- Jennings' guitar, like MCC's, has a capo on the third fret, but his is in
- standard tuning. The chord names above the tab are rough guides, since
- the real chords have horrible names.
-
- The slashes are slides up (/) and down (\), and the equal signs (=) are
- pull-offs. Obviously, the "02," "242," and "353" sequences are hammer-ons
- and pull-offs. "Triplet" or "tri" denote triplets. In the beginning of
- each phrase (the part that sounds like "come on come on," put some vibrato
- on the 3rd fret of the B string. Arpeggiate the triple stops (places where
- you play three strings at once).
