Subject: "Crossing Over" chords and tab

okay here goes:

beginning starts with MAIN RIFF (riff a):

e-----||---------|-5--7-9-5-5---- ||
B-7-5-||:----5-7-|-----------7-5-:||
G-----||--7-7----|--------------- ||

and that continues until the chorus the general chords for the verses are:

VERSE 1:

D                                           A
Back in the woods under ashes, there is a stone.
That says he was here a long time ago.
I wonder if he'll ever pass this way again.
But i know that no one ever goes home again.

CHORUS:

D            G           F#m
I'm crossing over county lines,

                      G
I'm tired of drinking 3.2 beer.

D            G          F#m
I'm crossing over in my mind,

                 G         A
Forget about the last five years.

VERSE 2: (continue main riff, then switch to harmony riff)

HARMONY RIFF (riff b):

e-10-9-7-7-9-10-12--14-15-12-12-10-9-7-7-9-10-14-15-17-14-

Riff A
     Back in the woods along the dirt tracks, there is a house.
An old woman on the porch with three dogs one of them blind.

RiffB
     Who knows what will happen, or what blind dogs see?

Riff A
     I wish there was someplace i really wanted to be.

CHORUS

VERSE 2

repeat riff a after verse 2 with "im crossing over, im crossing over", then
riff b and then end on F#m (i think).

this could very well be wrong in some parts, but it sounds nice...enjoy...
