anthony Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I have been trying to figure out this one. Such a sweet song. The usual places on the internets leave me wanting. I am missing some walking bass maneuver on the "From the west down to the east" segment of the song. Any help? G Am They say ev'rything can be replaced, Bm D ? G Yet ev'ry distance is not clear. G Am So I remember ev'ry face Bm Am G Of ev'ry man who put me here. G Am I see my light come shining Bm D ? G From the west down to the east. G Am Any day now, any day now, Bm D ? G I shall be released. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gobias Industries Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 It should be Bm to C then D the back to the root, G. So the C goes in the D spot then your D fills in at the ?. That's how I hear it. It's basically a direct replica of the Band's version of the song, so you may want to check for that. I think ordinarily the song is in E, however. Hope it helps.

I appreciate the input, but this still doesn't sound right to me. I do like your idea of moving C up a spot. Maybe this: Bm C C/B G From the west down to the east. ??

anthony Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Maybe wrong key. Try this:C Dm They say everything can be replaced Em F G C Yet every distance is not near Dm So I remember every face Em F G C Of every man who put me here chorus C Dm I see my light come shining Em F G C From the west unto the east Dm any day now any day now Em F G C i shall be released What do you guys think?

stagerug Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 That sounds spot on to me... nice job. Sounds good at the Tweedy standard capo 2, as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
