You Got The Silver - Rolling Stones 
>From the album 'Let It Bleed' 
Written by M. Jagger and K. Richard 
 
Tabbed by Koen van der Drift  
 
This is a transcription of the main acoustic guitar part. I wrote this because 
the current version at `OLGA` - mistakenly called `You Got The Sliver` is far 
from accurate and contains chords of which I, and probably the Stones also, have 
never heard of. 
 
Comments and suggestions are welcome. 
 
Have fun, 
 
- Koen.

Open D tuning 
Capo at 3rd 
 
Almost the whole song is based on two chords, an F and a Bb: 
 
    F  Bb 
D |-3---3-| 
A |-3---5-| 
F#|-3---4-| 
D |-3---3-| 
A |-3---5-| 
D |-3---3-| 
 
The capo is at the third fret, and you can alternate between these chords by 
hammering-on and pulling-off the Bb chord. I give some examples how this is 
done during the first verse, but it shouldn't be that difficiult to find out 
what is played during the other verses. The Bb can also be played by sliding up 
to the 8th position. The intro, the turnaround, the break and the outtro are 
different, and they are tabbed as well. 
 
 
Intro (play with slide):

Lyrics: 
 
    F 
Hey babe, what`s in your eyes 
           Bb                       F 
I saw them flashing, like airplane lights 
            Bb                    F 
You fill my cup babe, that`s for sure 
                Bb                    {turnaround} 
But I must come back, for a little more 
 
You got my heart, you got my soul 
You got the silver, you got the gold 
You got the diamonds, from the mines 
And that`s all right, it`ll buy some time - {break} 
 
| F - Bb | - {turnaround} 
 
Tell me honey, what should I do 
When I am hungry, and thirsty too 
Feeling foolish, and that`s for sure 
Just waiting here, at your kitchen door 
 
Hey baby, what`s in your eyes 
Is that the diamonds, from the mines 
What`s that laughing, in your smile 
I don`t care, no I don`t care 
 
Oh baby, you got the soul 
You got the silver, you got the gold 
A flash of love, just made me blind 
I don`t care, no that`s no big surprise - {outtro}
