These Days Tabs

(ver. 1)
The Tallest Man On Earth
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: EADGBe

I tried to tab this song, which is a cover from the Tallest man on earth of a
song called "These days" from Jackson Browne.

You can hear this song at this link :

I think the chords are right.
For the picking pattern, this is some kind of travis picking, a lot ask for a tab
of this song, and nobody seems to provide one so i tried my best but it's
probably wrong.

Anyway, there is 2 parts in the song + outro.

It goes like this :


(Part 1) Well I've been out walking
(Part 1)I don't do that much talking these days
(Part 2)(Em)These (Em7)days
(F)These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot(G6) to do
And all the times I had the chance to(F,G6,F)

Then intro (once or twice) between each verse.
And finally outro after last verse.
It's the same progression during every verse.


Lyrics :

Well I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days-
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
For you
And all the times I had the chance to

And I had a lover
It's so hard to risk another these days
These days-
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life I have made in song
Well it's just that I've been losing so long

I'll keep on moving
Things are bound to be improving these days
These days-
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them


Enjoy :)
