CRD: "Step Inside This House" album, disc 1, by Lyle Lovett

On my last trip to visit the parents in Alaska, I played the first
disc of Step Inside This House incessantly, about half the time with
a guitar in hand. Here are my notes from that week.

OLGA has started rejecting submissions that include lyrics, as a
result of their battle with the music industry lawyers. So this file
has been sanitized for the copyright fascists. It makes the chords a
bit harder to follow, but I'm already on the lawyers' hit list after
5 years of running the Eric Clapton Lyric Archive.

Mark Albert has already done 3 of these tracks (and even more from
the second disc) and in all cases his stuff is more accurate and
complete. Those are available at COWPIE and probably elsewhere.
Anyone working through this disc should track those down; the
strength of this file is breadth, not precision. :)

If you enjoy this file, or want to add to it, drop me a line at

I'VE HAD ENOUGH by Vince Bell and Craig Calvert

I'm not happy with what I've got here -- I'm basically providing this
in case someone else wants to use it as a springboard to do a better
job.

You're on your own for the solo break, which has some seriously funky

SLEEPWALKING by Willis Alan Ramsey

This is just a fragment, really. The tune meanders all around the
basic pattern, and the song doesn't grip me enough to go and catalog
all of the permutations.

B B C B A A A E

BALLAD OF THE SNOW LEOPARD AND THE TANQUERAY COWBOY by David Rodriguez

Mark Albert's tab of this one is highly recommended.

MORE PRETTY GIRLS THAN ONE (traditional)

Straightforward bluegrass, so simple your dog can play it. Great
track, though.
