Criticism is encouraged.
This is my first Lofgren tab that Ive done. The Cadd9 chord and C chord at the end of
first 2 verses Im not sure about, but it sounds good. The second half after the first
verses I obtained a part or two I couldnt pick out from shinesilently.com. Criticism encouraged.
Enjoy.

song after that for the intro.
You used to leave your scent (GEDG)
On his whiskey soaked collar (GEDG)
You both would paint the town (EDBmE)
Drink up his very last dollar (GEDG)
And then you loved him for fun (EDEG)
And rode away when it was done (GEDG)
Now hes confused and I know why (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Aint that mud in your eye (GEDG)
(Sturm w/everything muted for the next lyric)
(Some of these lyrics towards the end of this verse are sang while playing the riffs,
thats why it appears one riff to be left over at the end of this progression, starting at
realized you were no longer free)
Aint like rain (GEDG)
Remember lively little Richard. (GEDG)
But his men were painting town (EDBmE)
You were in need of attention (GEDG)
So he thought hed take you on down (EDEG)
And there you first saw me (GEDG)
And realized you were no longer free (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
Cuz true love good girls cant deny (GEDG)
It comes and goes like mud in youre eye. (Cmaj7-C-Cadd9-D)
(After that progression and the last lyric there comes another GEDG
And from here out chords are played during singing instead of prior)

Sometimes a victim can run

But not when both have been von
D-C-D
And I aint no stranger
I built you up to shoot you down
C
Once you could thrill me
Am
Now Im the jury
D
And youll be a cinch to convict
Em-F#m-E-A
Your boys gonna make the great escape
A-F#m-E-A
While your laid bare on the ground
A-F#m-E-C#m-F#m
This vengeance had to and in crime
F#m-A-F#m-E-A
I built you up and shoot you down
A-F#m-E-F#m-E
You know Im not usually that kind

But Ill just laugh if you cry

Now aint that mud in your eye
A-F#m-E-A
