TRACTION IN THE RAIN- David Crosby

TUNING: A A D G B E (drop E way down to get the A)

A6  A11  A6  A7sus2   A6  A11  A6  A7sus2

A6
 It's hard enough, I know
A11
 To find the strength to go
A6            A7sus2
 Back to where it all began
A6
 It's hard to enough to gain
A11
 Any traction in the rain
A6             A7sus2
 You know its hard for me to understand

CHORUS #1:
Am7 F#m7+5/A
           Hard to find a way
Am7 F#m7+5/A
           To get through another city day
Am7 F#m7+5/A
           Without thinking about
Am7 F#m7+5/A          A6  A11  A6  A7sus2
           Gettin' out

Now the strangest thing I've seen
Was a t-shirt turning green
In envy of turtle dove
The dove's lady was the cause
Or maybe it was the olive branch she held in her claws
Or maybe he could see they were in love

CHORUS #2:
You know it's hard for me to find a way
To get through another city day
Without thinking about
Gettin' out
