[chorus] Date: Tue, 26 Nov 96 13:39:10 PST From: David Poch 6th Avenue Heartache by the Wallflowers, found on "Bringing Down the Horse" There's four chords throughout: E - B - F#min - A (Open E, B at 7th, ect) (You can add open high E & B's as drone notes). Sounds best "unplugged". I heard a GREAT version which was without drums and bass. Only vocals, resonator slide guitar (try a National Duolian!) for solo fills and background accordion were playing.

Transcription by Dave Poch (I am not responsible for any of the following, use at your discretion!) I play it in a different key than the recorded version: (E as opposed to F?) There's four chords throughout: E - B - F#min - A (Open E, B at 7th, ect) (You can add open high E & B as drone notes). The original, if you like would be F, C, Gmin and B flat, just capo at the first fret and finger the chords as shown. Play a full barre on the F#min if easier.

However the lyrics I had to figure out on my own, so don't scream if they're a little off, (Jakob can slurr like only a Dylan can [I mean that in a good way]). Try it with the Gm7 before the Bb and let me know what you think (bag@cjnetworks.com) I play it w/capo@3 like D(F) A(C) Em7(Gm7) G(Bb) its easy and sounds cool. I saw these guys in Lawrence KS recently..VERY COOL...like seeing a young pre-disillusioned(new word) Bob! THE WALLFLOWERS 6th Avenue heartache chords by Sam Stewart updated: Barry A.

Thank you Sam for getting me on the right track! the Gm7 thing was a gift from above...it just happened....and seemed right!?!? not sure why I can remember lyrics tonight while typing. I sure as hell can't when I'm singing it! I dont know how correct it is. The chords sound right though Ive only got the first verse lyrics, but they're pretty simple.
