Try messing with the three chords from the song
if you've got a mandolin; I think the intro's based on them. Here's the
mandolin part at the end of the intro:
G--0----------------------------------
D--0----0-5-0-5----0-5-0-5----0-5-0-5-
A--2----------------------------------
E--3----------------------------------
[G]I saw her there [C]fade from a[G]far
[G]Her hair gray char[C]coal
Takes a [G]drag from her [D]tar.
I [C]kissed her a [D]smile,
but her [G]blood red shot [C]eyes
Said "the [C]son never [D]shines on closed [G]doors."
[G]It's been eight long [C]years since I [G]saw
The [G]woman who's [C]labored
Since the [G]day I was [D]born.
Those [C]wrinkles now [D]face
To that [G]cold dark damp [C]place,
Where the [C]son never [D]shines on closed [G]doors.
[Chorus]
She said the [C]son never [D]shines on closed [G]doors
I [C]open to [D]find only [G]hurricanes [D]blow.
[C]Takes me [D]away, to the [G]green fields of [C]May,
Because the [C]son never [D]shines on closed [G]doors.
Death comes like a thief in the night
To steal while you sleep,
the soul's flickering light.
Well maybe it's then,
she said I'll see you again,
Because the son never shines on closed doors.
[Chorus]
[Outro]
And we [D]all go the [C]same way [G]home,
yeah we [D]all go the [C]same way [G]home. [Repeat until end]
PLAY TOO ..
