7&7 (ain't It Strange) Chords

(ver. 1)
Turnpike Troubadours
Capo 2. 

The C/B is essentially just used to notate a walkup from the Am to a C. 
All you have to do is keep your pointer finger planted and move your middle 
finger up to the B on the A string (2nd fret on the A string). I tried 
to make the timing on those as close as I could. And the G/F# is just a 
walkdown from a G chord to an Em chord where all you have to do is lift 
your middle finger on the G and move your pointer finger up to the F# on
 the E string (2nd fret on the E string). 

Intro, Outro, and all instrumentals follow verse chord pattern. Enjoy!

G         D         Am      C/B      C
Back when you, well when you were my darlin
G        D       Am     C/B    C
I didn't mind to lose a little sleep and
G        D       Am   C/B    C
I didn't mind to do a little walkin
G      D         Am         C/B    C
Reputation never meant that much to me

Em       D         C            G    G/F#
How do I find that old familiar feelin 
Em           D             C          G  G/F#
The one that carried me so many years ago
Em      D           C            G   G/F#
Bottles dominos and seven up and seagrams
Em          D                C
Things were simple then just movin nice and slow

(Chorus)
        Am        C/B   C
Aint it strange
        Am        C/B   C
aint it strange
G     D       Am  C/B    C            G     D          Am  C/B  C
I had no clue I'd be the boy who your momma warned you about
G     D       Am  C/B    C            G     D          Am  C/B  C
I had no clue I'd be the boy who your momma warned you about


Well that old scene was always comin to me
I see you standin w/ your husband and your child
You're a picture of strength and grace and beauty
Me I'm just a fool in the supermarket aisle

No hello would surely end up awkward
I never had a knack for talkin anyway
You're not the kind for bendin over backwards
Stop and turn my shoppin cart around and walk away

(Chorus)

Ain't it strange how well I knew you back when I was 17
Lovin you was easy babe but I was just a child
These days you ain't nothing just an insterstate daydream
Folks were sleepin and you were runnin wild

Am                C/B      C
And I still do my share of sleepin on the floor
Am           C/B             C
Not sure if anybody knows me anymore 

(Chorus)
