intro:

4|e---|e---|f-g->-|e-c-|
4|c---|c---|d---d3|a--b|
3|a---|f---|g-----|f---|
b|1234|1234|123-4-|1234|

interlude:

Interludes are played three times during the song, each time a little different.
First I define some chords that I will use in the "chord-row" of the tab.

 Am  Fmaj7  G7   F+    C    G   Em   Dm
4|e| 4|e|  4|f| 4|e| 4|e| 4|d| 4|e| 4|f|
4|c| 4|c|  4|d| 3|a| 4|c| 3|b| 3|b| 4|d|(the "G7" sometimes sound better with a "b" instead of the "d")
3|a| 3|f|  4|g| 3|f| 3|g| 3|g| 3|g| 3|a|

In the interludes a chord is hit at each first beat of the measures, then the upper part
of the chord is repeated softly on each beat throughout the measure at the same time as
a number of other notes are hit. These other notes, and chords vary each time:

The first interlude (after the intro):

5|----e-c-|--g-c7g-|-5g-c7g-|-5g-c7e-|
4|--c-----|--------|--------|--------|
c|Am------|Fmaj7---|Em------|F+------|

c|Am------|Fmaj7---|G7------|F+----------------|
b|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-------3---4---|1...

The last interlude (outro):

5|----g*c-|--g-c7g-|-7c5c7g-|-5g-c7g-|
3|--a-b4c-|--------|--------|--------|
c|Am------|Fmaj7---|G7------|F+------|

c|Am------|Fmaj7---|G7------|C---G-----|
b|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3---4-|

play the two blocks above twice, only play an "e" instead of a "g" at (*) the second time...

5|----g-c-|--g-c7g-|-5a-c7g-|----------|
3|--a-b4c-|--------|--------|e-fed-c3b-|

b|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1-2-3-4-|1234|


verses, lyrics and song structure:

In the verses, I play the G7-chord, with a "b" in addition to the "d".
Play the chords freely, and add bass..

Before each new Am, there's a fill in:
4|-------cded-c--3b-|a...
b|1-2-------3---4---|1...

Between the Fmaj7 and the G7 there's also kind of a fill in:
1. verse:        2. verse:		       
4|--fe|...       4|--ff|...                     4|--fg|...
4|--cc|...       4|--cc|... the first time and: 4|--cc|... the second time
b|1234|1..       b|1234|1..                     b|1234|1..


intro + interlude 1...

Am	      Fmaj7
I left by the back door
G7		       F+
With my wife's lover's smoking gun
Am			Fmaj7
I don't know what I was hoping for
G7		    F+
I hit the road at a run

Am         F
I was your lover
G7	   C
I was your man
Am		   F
There never was no other
G7	     Dm
I was your friend
			C
Till we came along this road
			G
Till we came along this road
Till we came along this road

interlude 2...

I ain't sent you no letters, Ma
But I'm looking quite a trip
The world spinning beneath me, Ma
Guns blazing at my hip
You were my lover
You were my friend
There never was no other
On whom I could depend
Then we came along this road
We came along this road
We came along this road
