Backwoods Company

• F#

I just discovered these guys yesterday, and I am listening to this song for 
the first time right now.  I'm gonna tab it for you. I think these guys are 
pretty damn good and I like this style of rocking alt-country they are 
making.  Here we go 

Standard Tuning - This song is just the same 3 chords with a catchy riff 
USE POWER CHORDS THROUGHOUT 
Intro and Main riff:  Repeat this twice as intro 

e------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
B------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
D-----4-2-4p2---2-4-----4-2-4p2---2-----4-2-4p2---2-4--------------------| 
A--4----------4------4----------4----4----------4------------------------| 
E--2-----------------2---------------2-----------------------------------|

B------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G--2-2-2-2--4-4-4--------------------------------------------------------| 
D--2-2-2-2--4-4-4--------------------------------------------------------| 
A--0-0-0-0--2-2-2--0-----------------------------------------------------| 
E------------------------------------------------------------------------| 

Verse:  Below note the A note after 7 F# power chords.  The third time 
notice no A, it just moves straight to the A power chord after 8 F#'s 

  F#                F#               F#               A        B

B------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
G------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
D------------------------------------------------------------------------| 
A--4-4-4-4-4-4-4----4-4-4-4-4-4-4----4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4--7-7-7-7--9-9-9--7--| 
E--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-5--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-5--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--5-5-5-5--7-7-7--5--| 

Chorus: 

F#                 A       B 
Maybe down by the old oak tree 
F#                            A    B 
They'll cut my hair when they bury me 
F#             A      B 
Pack me up and set me out to sea 


Then return back to main riff and repeat verses and riff and Chorus as 
necessary. 

The guitar/harmonica solo/break thing just repeats the F#, A, B progression 
with some basic and simple stuff going on over top which I'm not going 
to tab. 

This should lay it out for you fairly well.  I was going to pull the lyrics 
off of a website, but they are terribly wrong so you will have to decipher 
those for yourself.  A cool and very simple riff. 

Enjoy, 
Jifigz
