It was often talked about
It was often raised
(Same Progression Throughout)
But nothing was ever done about it
To hear the way they talked about it
Noone could be saved
But nothing was ever done about it
Shall I take back everything I’ve ever said
And live my whole life in silence instead?
It was oversimplified
It was underthought
And nothing was ever done to stop it
Everything was fortified by
All the lies we bought
And nothing was ever done to stop it
Shall I take back everything I’ve ever said
And live my whole life in silence instead?
Shall I take back everything I’ve ever said
(Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?)
And live my whole life in silence instead?
(All my mistrust – we never discussed anyone’s reservations)
There was a time
When a crime was a crime
Now I think I’m losing my mind
Or taking it all too hard
Taking it all too hard
Taking it all too haaaaard
Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?
All my mistrust – we never discussed anyone’s reservations
Shall I take back everything I’ve ever said
(Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?)
And live my whole life in silence instead?
(All my mistrust – we never discussed anyone’s reservations)
Shall I take back everything I’ve ever said
(Shall I take back all my attacks? All of my accusations?)
And live my whole life in silence instead?
(All my mistrust – we never discussed anyone’s reservations)
Maybe you’re right
Maybe you’re right
Maybe you’re right
But I don’t think so
Maybe you’re right
Maybe you’re right
Maybe you’re right
But I don’t think so

Back up on the mended road ….. I pause

taking time to check the dial

And the Lilywhite

I never knew her name

F G C_G_F G Em
But she’ll be passing my way sometime again.

I raise my hand and touch the wheel …. of change

taking time to check the dial

Thank the Lilywhite

I never knew her name

F G C_G_F G E
But she’ll be passing my way sometime again.
F G C_G_F G D
But she’ll be passing my way sometime again.

Final Part:
[E/A] [D/A] [E/A]
[E/A] [D/A] [E/A]

Instructions and sugestions:
1.) C_G_F means play each achord just one beat (down direction)
2.) Always play the guitar hearing the record is better for precision.

Tuning:Standard
Note 1: + -> harmonic
Note 2: Where Cat Stevens goes D Em D as tabbed, there is the alternative D Dsus4 D which is easier to time
and sounds fine

Note 3:
The song is played with 2 guitars. For example, the only thing Cat Stevens plays on the opening riff is
the harmonic on the e string which is a bit tricky to make ring true and on time using one guitar alone.
In the same way, the end of the riffs are enriched by an arpeggio in D or Em on the second guitar during the
first section and in the second the second guitar plays D and Em arpeggios between the riffs which are doable
on a single guitar but not quite the same
Basically, this is an approximation for one guitar so the sound is somewhat less rich than when they play it.
