Blackberry Way Acordes

Song: Blackberry Way
Artist: The Move
Composer: Roy Wood
 
Tabbed by: DJ   7th Sept 2012
 
DROPPED TUNING: D#-G#-C#-F#-A#-D#
 
Tune a half-step down from standard tuning to match
the original record. Using a chromatic tuner can make
this easier.
 
The chords below will then sound in the
original recorded key of Ebm
 
To avoid any detuning here's a link to a rare live
video where the band play it in Em in standard tuning
making it a semi-tone higher than the original record

[Verse 1]
Em         Em#5   Em6
Blackberry way,
      Em#5   Em      F#7
Abso- lutely pouring down with rain,
       Am            C  B7
It's a terrible day,
Em          Em#5    Em6
Up with the lark,
      Em#5    Em         F#7
Silly girl, I don't know what to say,
        Am             D7
She was running away
 
[Pre-Chorus]
G              Bm/F#           Em
    So now I'm standing on the corner,
Bm          Bbm           Am (Am/B)(Am/C)(Am/E)
Lost in the things that I said,
Cm             Cm/G     Cm Em * EmM7/D# Em7/D  F F/C
What am I sup- posed to do now---------------?
 
[Chorus]
G                  Bm    Bsus2 Bm
Goodbye Blackberry Way,
C       G/B       Am7     D7
I can't see you,  I don't need you,
G                  Bm    Bsus2 Bm
Goodbye Blackberry Way,
Am              D7           G     (G/F#)(G)(G/F#)
Sure to want me back another day
 
[Verse 2]
Em          Em#5    Em6
Down to the park,
       Em#5     Em      F#7
Over - growing, but the trees are bare,
          Am             C   B7
There's a memory there,
Em           Em#5    Em6
Boats on the lake,
       Em#5   Em       F#7
Unat - tended now, the laughter drowned,
         Am              D7
I'm in - credibly down
 
[Pre - Chorus]
G                  Bm/F#                Em
    Just like my - self,  they are ne - glected,
Bm           Bbm         Am (Am/B)(Am/C)(Am/E)
Turn with my eyes to the wall,
Cm             Cm/G     Cm Em * EmM7/D# Em7/D  F F/C
What am I sup- posed to do now---------------?
 
[Chorus]
G                  Bm    Bsus2 Bm
Goodbye Blackberry Way,
C       G/B       Am7     D7
I can't see you,  I don't need you,

"Look be - hind you, for she may be there!",
       Am                  C  B7
Said a thing in the air,
Em         Em#5    Em6
Blackberry Way,
        Em#5     Em       F#7
See the battle - field of careless sins,
Am                   D7
Cast to the winds,
G              Bm/F#            Em
    So full of emptiness with - out her,
Bm          Bbm          Am (Am/B)(Am/C)(Am/E)
Lost in the words that I said,
Cm             Cm/G     Cm Em * EmM7/D# Em7/D  F F/C
What am I sup- posed to do now---------------?
 
[Chorus]
