    Pass You By - Gillian Welch / David Rawlings

    Revival - song 3

    Drop E to D play D7 baseline / Capo 5 A

    Intro D

     

    I've got an D old V - 8, from the year I was born

    Don't G look like much, just a F flat black Em7 Ford

    But the D engine's clean, I could paint her some day

    But G most of the time, I think I F like her this Em7 way

     

    Chorus

    Don't G turn no heads, don't catch no F eye

    I'm just a D wind on the road, gonna pass you by

    Bb   F  Em7  D

     

    I D used to talk tough, I used to get loud

    Want to G paint my name, all F over this Em7 town

    But D folks lined up, just to dog my day

    Now if G I stay quiet, they stay F out of my Em7 way

     

    Chorus

    InstrumentalBb   F  Em7  D D

    GGDDGBb   F  Em7  D D

    I got a D brand new plan, gonna help myself

    'Cause it's the G fat man's turn, gonna F share the Em7 wealth

    Put the D money in the bag, and keep your hands in sight

    Turn G around, count to ten, I'll go F back into the Em7 night

     

    Chorus

    Don't G turn no heads, don't catch no F eye

    I'm just a D wind on the road, gonna pass you by

    Don't G call for help, don't scream, don't cry

    Just a Bb wind on the road, gonna F pass Em7 you D by D

     

    I've got an D old V - 8, from the year I was born

    Don't G look like much, just a F flat black Em7 Ford D

    Mmmmm, mmmm
