DIMESTORE LIFE (Mary Karlzen)
-----------------------------
C C D D
Ohhh I know it's hard to let go
G6 G6 Dsus9 Dsus9 Em Em C C
But these mistakes I gotta make, I gotta make on my own [see tab #1]
C C Bm [hold]
Ohhh, what a wonderful ride
C C Bm Bm
When all the happiness in the world
G D/F# Em Em
Is right here on the inside
G D/F# Em Em [pause]
Right here on the inside
[DOUBLE TIME:]
C Em D G C Em D G
[instrumental; see tab #2.]
C Em D G C Em D G
[instrumental]
C Em D G
She was sixteen, never knew more
C Em D G
Than the backporch swing and the counter at the dime store
C Em D G
What do you know
C Em D G
[instrumental]
C Em D G
She had dreams, dreams of many things
C Em D G
A life on the road and all that brings
C Em D G
Ohhhh, there's got to be more
C Em D G
Than this counter at the dime store
C Em D G
[instrumental]
D D C C
Ohhhh, what does this life have in store
G G C C
I need to know if there's any more
D D C C
I need to know
G D/F# Em C
Mama, won't you please let me go
G D/F# Em C D D D [stop.]
Mama, won't you please let me go
Wave goodbye at the end of spring
Drop down a graduation gown and a high school ring
Echo on the gym floor
[instrumental]
A life made from cards and sticks
The kind of broke that money can't fix
Ohhhh, this road'll take me somewhere
And I'll know it when I get there
[instrumental]
Ohhhh, what does this life have in store
I need to know if there's any more
I need to know
Mama, won't you please let me go
Mama, won't you please let me go
C Em D G C Em D G
[guitar solo]
C Em D G C Em D G
[guitar solo]
Em Em C C Em Em D [hold]
[guitar solo]
Day to day, and town to town
Mama writes, "I can never track her down"
She's gonna find what she's looking for
[instrumental]
Thirty-one when she finally makes it home
With the wisdom of the world, a woman fully grown
Oh I never needed more
Than this counter at the dime store
Than this counter at the dime store
[instrumental]
Ohhhh, what does this life have in store
I need to know if there's any more
I need to know
Mama, won't you please let me go
Mama, won't you please let me go
Mama, let me go...
[repeat and fade G D/F# Em C with ad lib vocals]
TAB:
[Both of these are probably a little off, mostly because they're played on
an electric guitar and I only have an acoustic. I know the notes are right,
but I might be playing them on the wrong strings, as usual.]
