Natural Mystic by Bob Marley

Original 1980
    Dm G Am  Am
There's a natural mystic flow thru' the air,
       Dm       G      Am   Am
if you listen carefully now you will hear.
   Dm Am
This could be the first trumpet,
Dm      Am
might as well be the last.
     Dm        Am
Many more will have to suffer,
     Dm        Am
many more will have to die,
     Am  Am
don't ask me why.


Things are not the way they used to be, I won't tell no lie.
One and all have to face reality now.
'Tho I've tried to find the answer
to all the questions they ask.
'Tho I know it's impossible
to go living through the past,
don't tell no lie.

There's a natural mystic bloom thru' the air, can't keep them down.
If you listen carefully now you will hear.

Blossom by James Taylor

Original
Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way
lately, I've been lonesome.
Blossom, it's been much too long a day,
seems my dreams have frozen,
melt my cares away.

Send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name,
I know what you mean to say to me,
girl, it's all the same.

Blossom, there's an empty road behind,
sit you down beside me.
Blossom, there's a sweet dream on my mind,
there's a song inside me,
take these chains away.

Now, send the sunshine down my way whenever you call my name,
I know what you mean to say to me,
girl, it's all the same.

Blossom, smile some sunshine down my way
lately, I've been lonesome.
Blossom, it's been much too long a day,
seems my dreams have frozen, melt my cares away.
Laaa laaa lalalalaaaa laaaa laaaa la la la la

You Can Close Your Eyes: James Taylor and Carole King

Original

Capo: Fret 1 
VERSE 1:

          A             G     D
Well the Sun is surely sin - kin' down,
         Em       Bm   A      G      Em   A
and the Moon is slowly ri - sing.
    D                   G          D       A
So this old world must still be spinnin' 'round,
    Em       A    D       G A D
and I still love you.

CHORUS:

     G    D    A     C                   G         Bm
So Close your eyes, you can close your eyes, its alright.
Em               A              C                 G     Bm
I don't know no love songs, and I cant sing the blues anymore.
 Em                   G         Em               G     A        Bm     G A
But I can sing this song; and you can sing this song, when I'm gone.

VERSE 2: 

    D               G     D       A
It won't be long before another day.
Em        A       G         Em A      
We gonna have a good time,
    D              G         D     A
and no ones gonna take that time away.
Em               A           D      G A D
You can stay as long as you like.

REPEAT CHORUS

If you're just getting into James Taylor, I believe this is the best song to learn his
Be sure to learn the licks he plays in between his singing. Anyone can just play the chords.

Verse:

have to be exact, but the licks in between are written out exactly.)

I have tabbed out some of the later picking patterns at the bottom of this tab. The
of the chorus are below.

From here on out it's pretty easy to figure out the picking patterns,
many from above are repeated or you can just improvise if you want. Just remember to
those bass notes like James.

Chorus:

   G     Em7  A7sus4 A7
So close your eyes


C                  G            Badd9 Bm  (tab below)
You can close your eyes, it's alright


Em7              A7sus4 A7      C                G            Badd9 Bm
I don't know no love songs, and I can't sing the blues anymore


    Em7   D/F#         G   (tab below)
But I can sing this song,

    Em7     D/F#        G  A        Badd9 Bm
and you can sing this song when I'm gone

Em7  F#m  G  Em7  A7sus4  A7   (tab below)

And back to (Verse) for second verse.


Here are some of the fingerpicking patterns from the chorus:
(Numbers in parentheses are usually just played as grace notes
while switching chords)

"You can close your eyes, it's alright..."
E--------0----------------3-------------------2---------------2------------|
B-------------------------------------------------2-----2h3-------3--------|
G----0-------0---0------------0------0----------------4---------------(0)--|
D------2----------------0-------------------4-------4-------4-------4------|
A--3-------3-----------------------0---2--------2-------2-------2----------|
E--------------2---3--------3----------------------------------------------|


Same pattern as above for "And I can't sing the blues anymore"


"But I can sing this song..."
  E |--------------------3----------------3------|
  B |--------------0------------1p0--------------|
  G |--0-----2--------0-------0-------0-------0--|
  D |-----0-----0--------------------------------|
  A |--------------------------------------------|
  E |--0-----2-----3--------3---3---3---3---3----|


"And you can sing this song when I'm gone..."
  E |------------------------------------2---------------2------------|
  B |--------------0-------2-----------------2-----2h3-------3--------|
  G |--0-----2--------0--------(0)---------------4---------------(0)--|
  D |-----0-----0------------2---------4-------4-------4-------4------|
  A |--------------------0---------2-------2-------2-------2----------|
  E |--0-----2-----3--------------------------------------------------|


Next, when (Em7  F#m  G  Em7  A7sus4  A7) is played, the pattern is roughly this:

  E |---------------------------|
  B |----3----2----3----3--3-2--|
  G |----0----2----0----0--0-0--|
  D |---------------------------|
  A |----------------------0-0--|
  E |--0----2----3----0---------|


Second verse and chorus are pretty much the same. At the end of the song
a second guitar part joins in. Both parts are below:


Guitar 1:
  E |------0-2--3-0--------|------0-2--3---------2--|
  B |----3------3-3-----2--|----3------3---3--2--3--|
  G |--2--------0-0-----0--|--2--------0---0--0--2--|
  D |----0-----------------|----0----------------0--|
  A |-------------0---0-0--|------------------0-----|
  E |-----------3----------|-----------3-2-0--------|

Guitar 2:
  E |-----------------------------------------------------(2)--|
  B |-----------------------------------------------------(3)--|
  G |---------------------------2---------0-2-4-0---2---2-(2)--|
  D |-----------------------0-2---0-2-4-0---------2--------0---|

          But someone's locked the door and took the key

                  C7           F7
          Feelin' alright
                          C7                 F7
          Not feelin' too good myself
                  C7           F7
          Feelin' alright
                          C7                 F7
          Not feelin' too good myself


          Boy you sure took me for one big ride

          Even now I sit and wonder why

          And when I think of you I start to cry

          I just can't waste the time I must keep dry

          Got to stop believin' in all your lies

          Cause I got to much to do before I die


           Don't get too lost in all I say

          If half the time I really felt that way

          That was then and now it's today

          Can't get off yet and so I'm here to stay

          Before someone comes along and takes my place

          With a different name and yes a different face

In My Time of Dying

"In My Time Of Dying"

In my time of dying, want nobody to mourn
All I want for you to do is take my body home

Well, well, well, so I can die easy [X2]

Jesus, gonna make up my dyin' bed.
Meet me, Jesus, meet me. Meet me in the middle of the air
If my wings should fail me, Lord. Please meet me with another pair

Well, well, well, so I can die easy [X2]

Jesus, gonna make up.. somebody, somebody...
Jesus gonna make up... Jesus gonna make you my dyin' bed

Oh, Saint Peter, at the gates of heaven... Won't you let me in
I never did no harm. I never did no wrong

Oh, Gabriel, let me blow your horn. Let me blow your horn
Oh, I never did, did no harm.

I've only been this young once. I never thought I'd do anybody no wrong
No, not once.

Oh, I did somebody some good. Somebody some good...
Oh, did somebody some good. I must have did somebody some good...
Oh, I believe I did

I see the smiling faces
I know I must have left some traces

And I see them in the streets
And I see them in the field
And I hear them shouting under my feet
And I know it's got to be real
Oh, Lord, deliver me
All the wrong I've done
You can deliver me, Lord
I only wanted to have some fun.

Hear the angels marchin', hear the' marchin', hear them marchin',
hear them marchin', the' marchin'

Oh my Jesus... [repeat]

Oh, don't you make it my dyin', dyin', dyin'...

[Studio Chatter:] "That's gonna be the one, isn't it? "
"Come have a listen, then. "
Oh yes, thank you."

Why Worry by Dire Straits

The Bm7 chord seems wrong????

the melody goes C# D E on those three red lyrics 

Dire Straits - Why Worry

D      A7                           D

Baby I see this world has made you sad

  A7                D

Some people can be bad

  G             E                  A    Bm7    A

The things they do, the things they say  ay    ay  

    D      A7                          D

But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears

     A7                          D

I'll chase away those restless fears

  G                    E          A   Bm7    A

That turn your blue skies into grey

      D      G                A               D    

Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain

  G            A                D

There should be sunshine after rain

 G              A               D

These things have always been the same

 G    A       D

So why worry now

 D      A7                     D

Baby when I get down I turn to you

     A7                    D

And you make sense of what I do

  G              E      A   Bm7    A

I know it isn't hard to say

D      A7                     D

But baby just when this world seems mean and cold

     A7                          D

Our love comes shining red and gold

  G                   E          A   Bm7    A

And all the rest is by the way

      D      G                A               D    

Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain

  G            A                D

There should be sunshine after rain

 G              A               D

These things have always been the same

 G    A       D

So why worry now
