Hi, this is a little variation on the song fast car. It is played twice on
her cd. This is the main theme.

B--T------------------------|---------------------over, until the bridge "I re-

D, for one measure, A for one measure, F#m(244222) for a measure, Esus
(022200) for a measure, then a measure in which a D and F#m are given equal
time, followed by a measure of E. Repeat the last two measures, then play one
with a D and E. Back to the repeating riff.
This is what I've got for Fast Car by Tracy Chapman:
I'm not going to post the words, b/c I don't know them. But this is
a decnt compromise on the continual riff throughout the song,
considering I can't play bass and acoustic guitars at the same time.
Oh, and yes, I did this by listening to the CD.
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 repeat...
e---|-------0---0----|-5-----4---4----|
B-T-|-2-3-2----------|----------------|
G-A-|-2-----------2--|-----2-------2--|
D-B-|-0--------------|----------------|
A---|-------0--------|----------------|
E---|----------------|-2-----0--------|
I apologize if my notation is unconventional, but this is my first
TAB post attempt. It's a little tricky to play this version, but I
can manage it by keeping my index finger on the G, and by cheating
with my thumb for the E bass notes. The bridge/chorus(?) chords are
posted elsewhere.
