here it is fixed.
THE WALLFLOWERS
Bringing Down The Horse
I just bought this CD today, but i'm pretty sure the chords are right.
However the lyrics I had to figure out on my own, so don't scream if they're
a little off, (Jakob can slurr like only a Dylan can [I mean that in a good
way]).

Intro. Chords: -------
Verse 1:
The sirens ring, the shots ring out.
A stranger cries, he screams out loud.
I had my world, strapped against my back.
I held my hands, and never knew how to act.
Chrous:
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
Verse 2:
Well good old me, I was a homeless man.
Singing songs, I knew complete.
On the steps alone, this guitar in hand.
These fifty years stood where he stands.
Chrous:
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
Verse 3:
Walking home, on the streets.
The river winds, they move my feet.
The subway steam, like silhouetes in dreams.
You stood by me, just like playing games.
Chrous:
Well the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
Yeah 6th avenue heartache.
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
Verse 4:
Looked out the window, and got up on that street.
And gone like midnight, was that wind.
But I sit here with 6-strings, leane against that wall.
And all those things, they all look so small.
I got my fingers crossed, on a shooting star.
Just like me, just moved on back home.
Chrous:
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
6th Avenue Heartache.
Well the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me, and now
it's drawing me in.
Yeah 6th avenue heartache.

Sirens ring the shots ring out
A stranger cries screams out loud
I had my world strapped against my back
I held my hands never knew how to act
[chorus]:
And the same black line that was drawn on you was drawn on me
And now it's drawn me in 6th avenue heartache
(repeat)
[verse]:
Below me there was a homeless man singin' songs I knew complete
On the steps alone his guitar in hand his 50 years stood where he stands
[chorus]
Walking home on those streets the river winds they moved my feet
The subway steam like silhouttes in dreams stood by me jus like moonbeams
[chorus]
Looked out the window down upon that street and gone like midnight was
that man
But I seen his 6 strings laid against that wall and all his things
they all looked so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star just like me has just moved on
[chorus]
6th Avenue Heartache by the Wallflowers, found on "Bringing Down the Horse"
There's four chords throughout: E - B - F#min - A (Open E, B at 7th, ect)
(You can add open high E & B's as drone notes). Sounds best
"unplugged". I
heard a GREAT version which was without drums and bass. Only vocals,
resonator
slide guitar (try a National Duolian!) for solo fills and background
accordion were playing.
My thanks to Jakob Dylan and the Wallflowers for this one!

Transcription by Dave Poch (I am not responsible for any of the
following, use at your
discretion!)
I play it in a different key than the recorded version: (E as opposed to F?)
There's four chords throughout: E - B - F#min - A (Open E, B at 7th, ect)
(You can add open high E & B as drone notes). The original, if you like
would be
F, C, Gmin and B flat, just capo at the first fret and finger the chords
as shown.
Play a full barre on the F#min if easier.

I just bought this CD today, but i'm pretty sure the chords are right.
However the lyrics I had to figure out on my own, so don't scream if
they're
a little off, (Jakob can slurr like only a Dylan can [I mean that in a good
way]). Try it with the Gm7 before the Bb and let me know what you think
I play it w/capo@3 like D(F) A(C) Em7(Gm7) G(Bb) its easy and sounds
cool.
I saw these guys
in Lawrence KS recently..VERY COOL...like seeing a young
pre-disillusioned(new word) Bob!

If you have anything to add or change feel free. If you would like to get
in
the right track!
the Gm7 thing was a gift from above...it just happened....and seemed
right!?!?
not sure why I can remember lyrics tonight while typing. I sure as hell
can't when I'm singing it!
I dont know how correct it is. The chords sound right though
Ive only got the first verse lyrics, but they're pretty simple.
Appreciate any corrections or suggestions....

N.B.: listen carefully to the background voice, this is Adam Duritz's amazing
voice (if you don't know the Counting Crows, go buy their 2 CDs right now!)
Note: tune all strings 1 step down. () means you can choose to play the chord or
---- not.
Intro:
-----
(x2)
Verse #1:
--------
Sirens ring, the shots ring out
A stranger cries, screams out loud
I had my world strapped against my back
()
I held my hands, never knew how to act
Chorus:
------
And the same black line that was drawn on you
Was drawn on me
And now it's drawn me in

6th Avenue heartache
Verse #2:
--------
Below me was a homeless man
I'm singing songs I knew complete
On the steps alone, his guitar in hand
It's fifty years, stood where he stands
(Chorus)
Verse #3:
--------
Now walkin' home on those streets
The river winds move my feet
Subway steam, like silhouettes in dreams
They stood by me, just like moonbeams
(instrumental part: play same chords)
Verse #4:
--------
Look out the window, down upon that street
And gone like a midnight was that man
But I see his 6 strings laid against that wall
And all his things, they all look so small
I got my fingers crossed on a shooting star
Just like me, just moved on
(Chorus/ad-lib to fade...)
