  Hammond Song

  Performed by the Roches on their Self Titled Album

  (Words & Music by Margaret A. Roche)

  

  (Song starts in E flat.

  Capo third fret and play as if in C.

  Cuz who likes to play in E flat?  Not me.)

  

  Chord 1 is C with the second finger off

  Chord 2 is C with the second finger hammering on

  Chord 3 is F with the second finger off

  Chord 4 is F with the second finger hammering on

  

  (Intro)

  1  2    1  2   

  1  2    1  2

  

     1              2      1  2          

  If you go down to Hammond

         F          C      1  2

  you'll never come back

  F      3           4  3

  In my opinion you're

  C            1      2    C

  on the wrong track

  F            3            4  

  We'll always love you but

  3          4         C  1   2

  that's not the point

  

  G       F        am

  ooo  oooo        ooooooo

  

  1   2     1    2  

  

     1            2         1   2

  If you go with that fella

      F        C   1   2

  forget about us

  F         3        4 3

  As far as I'm concerned

  C                

  that would be just

  F            3        4  

  throwing yourself away

  F          C   1  2

  not even trying

  G       F      am       1  2   1  2

  Come on you're lying to me

  

  (Then there's the interlude with the Robert

  Fripp guitar solo. The chords under it sound like this:)  

  

  am(with first finger off) 

  am(with first finger on)  

  am(with first finger off)

  am(with first finger on)

  C             1  2  

   

  (Then the song modulates up to B flat.

  Play as if in G cuz who likes to play in B flat?

  Not me)

  Chord 5 is G with the second finger off

  Chord 6 is G with the second finger hammering on

  

  5  6  5  6  

  

       5              6      5  6

  Well I went down to Hammond

    C        G      C   G

  I did as I pleased

  C           1      2  1  

  I ain't the only one

        G         5    6

  who's got this disease

  C             1            2

  Why don't you face the fact

          G     5   6

  you old upstart

  D  C        em

  We fall apart

  

     1            2        1  2  F  C  1  2

  If you go with that fella

  F          3          4  3

  You'd be okay if you'd

               C     1  2 

  just stay in school

  G     F3F   am  1  2  1  2  

  Don't be a fool

  

     1                 2     1  2

  Do your eyes have an answer

     F            C    1  2

  to this song of mine

  F         3        4 3

  They say we meet again

  C             1  2

  on down the line

  F           3           4  3

  Where is on down the line

            1  2  1  2

  how far away?

  G       F     am 1  2  1  2  1  2  1  2  

  Tell me I'm okay

  

     1              2      1   2  

  If you go down to Hammond

         F          C    1  2  1  2  1  2  1  C

  you'll never come back
