Sonny Feeling

Intro: Don't Know Yet

Riff 1
G				  D			Riff 1
I was on my way home
G				 D	 Riff 1
From high school
I was stuck at the crossing
I dug in for a duel

Well at the last moment
I barely hit the brakes
My life split in two directions
Into two seperate fates

I got on the last fight
To Amsterdam
We couldn't hit the runway
So he took off again

Aww, there's no need to worry
The captain cut in
The winds are less heavy
Over in Berlin

You know it's true
The other shoe
It waits for you
What can you do?
Remember to show gratitude
The darkest night is nothing new

Sonny's got a problem
All the mini-mart clerks know
She knows nothing of him and his
Suburban gangster flow

Oh maybe it's random
How each moment unfolds
It didn't feel
Like the wrong time or place
Until they cut off her clothes

I'm on my way home
From my high school
I'm always contemplating
Why the kids are still cruel
Oh, the kids are still cruel

A sunny feeling is taken away
A sunny feeling is taken away
A sunny feeling is taken away
Some of the feeling is taken away

 

When I have more time I will work on it some more

Here's my take on the solo (arranged for guitar in standard tuning). Sounds like it's originally played on a lap steel, probably tuned to some sort of 6 chord, but I didn't realize that until I was halfway into it, so I figured, might as well finish it off. I am writing from memory, so it might be a little off (will check when I get home), corrections welcome.

 

Split into chunks for easier consumption:

 

(v = vibrato, lots of it here)
