  T-Bone Burnett recorded this song for the Roky Erikson tribute

  CD Where the Pyramid Meets the Eye. The song is called

  "Nothing in Return" and it goes like this...

  

  		Nothing in Return (Erikson)

  Verse 1:

  	E

  	I call your name in the midnight

  

  	A		   B

  	But you don't hear me at all

  

  	E

  	I love you so dearly and nearly

  

  	A		   B

  	But you don't love me at all

  

  Chorus:         A			 B

  	There's nothin in this big round world that's worse

  

  	E  E/D#  C#m  C#m/B

  	Hu--ur---ur---rts

  

  	A			   B		E

  	Than payin out 'n receivin nothin in return

  

  Verse 2:

  	Every day and night I dial your number

  	But you never answer the phone

  	Are you really not there when I call you?

  	What gives you so much chance to roam?

  

  			- chorus -

  

  Bridge: A         B    E  E/D#  C#m  C#m/B

  	If I only knew how to get you

  	       A				      B

  	Well I tried all I know and failed except for lovin you so

  	

  Verse 3:

  	I sought you out and found out your name first

  	But my name you never seem to have called

  	How in this world can I date you

  	When you won't give me a call?

  some notes:

  

  The progression E  E/D#  C#m  C#m/B indicates a descending

  bass line, namely the *notes* E, D#, C#, B. I play the E

  chord which starts this progression at the 7th fret and

  then play the C#m chord at the 4th fret.
