I'll try to roughly TAB/TALK you through it. The opening riff is off the opening minor chord and goes roughly like this So... The intro is a held out minor. Seven more days, she'll be coming. I'll be waiting at the station For her to arrive. Seven more days all I got to do is survive. and the other change is There's kissing in the valley, thieving in the alley Fighting every inch of the way. Trying to be tender with somebody I remember In a night that's allways brighter than the day. Seven Days. Hope this helps. All off the top of my head and I haven't played this one in a couple of years. BTW, how's your open tuning playing going? Check out my sig for a good riff. -Jim >From: david@cats.ucsc.edu (David Michael Wright) Here are some chords, the way Wood does it is similiar but not the same. (anyone have any ideas?) sevan days sevan days , sevan long days she'll be comin' I'll be waitin' at the station for her to arrive sevan long days, all I gotta do is survive She been gone, ever since I been a child, ever since I seen her smile I've never forgotten her eyes She had a face that outshined the sun and the sky I've been good, i've been good while i've been waitin' forgive for hesitating, but i've been hangin on sevan more days and all that will be gone there's kissin' in the alley, theiving in the alley fightin' every inch of the way trying to get a lead on, providing the feat on the nights are always sadder than the days sevan days , sevan days the wind is knowin' the whistle will be blowin' and I know she'll be coming for my beautifull comrade from the north. repeat last first. -- "There is nothing in the marginal conditions that distinguish a mountain from a mole hill" Kenneth Boulding david@cats.ucsc.edu.
