--1h3-----3---1-----

               ----



I usually like to end it on a G chord like xx0003 (low to high), because the missing lower notes gives it a more delicate ending if you use a ritard.  





Lyrics to Footsteps:



(verse)

Don't even think about reaching me,

I won't be home.

Don't even think about stoppin' by,

Don't think of me... at all.



(bridge)

Oh, I did what I had to do,

if there was a reason, it was you.



(verse)

Don't even think about gettin' inside

of voices in my head... oohm, voices.



(bridge)

Oh, I got scratches all over my arms,

One for each pain since I fell apart.

Oh, I did what I had to do,

If there was a reason, it was you...



(chorus)

Footsteps in the hall

It was you, you....

Oh, pictures on my desk,

It was you, it was you..



(main riff)



(bridge)

Oh, I--I did what I had to do,

And if there was a reason, there wasn't no reason, no no,

oh, and if there's something you'd like to do,

Just let me to continue to blame you...



(chorus)

Footsteps in the hall

It was you, you...

Oh, pictures on my desk,

It was you, it was you...

This is just the intro..and the solo.. I have no patience so I'm not going

to tab it all down...I've only been playing about 7 months and I've

figured out most of the song

in about 2 of those months..just listen and play alot or you can just play

the chords

while listning to the song to get a good feel.. 

 

    E  open strings    B(Bm)  A    E    



e:  0       0          3(7)   0    0 

B:  0       0          5(7)   2    0  repeat through out verses

E:                      (7)





I usually play Bm but B will do..

just listen and practice alot..

If you can hunt me down..I know alot of PJ songs..

and if ya want tab and ya catch me in a good mood I'll

rush it right over to ya.. 

Doc..aka Ice..aka Val..aka Matt

jusy look for AOL.COM names having something to do with those

nicknames cause my name address is constantly changing..

Later y'all..

  I listened to footsteps a few hundred times and finally cameup with an

incredibly sucky piece of crap transcription almost worth putting on

here..

Like I said it sucks..and I didn't bother to get all the chords for the in

between parts of the song

but here's the intro and little mini-chorus.. besides..maybe someone

seeing how miserably I failed will trasncribe 

it better...just listen to it to get the timing..be creative..

what the hell I'll throw in a little yellow ledbetter tab too..
