Like in Suzy Lee, Jack plays rhythm guitar behind Johnny Walker, who plays slide. Jack
is playing in Standard tuning. During breaks I combined both guitars into one part for
simplicity, so pay attention to the tuning changes.
INTRO:
SLIDE RIFF (Johnny):
VERSE 1: (SLIDE RIFF, with 0-3b--0 from Jack's guitar)
Well, I hold the rope
And I hold the sail
And I kept my papers
To keep from land' in jail
And I fought piranhas
And I fought the cold
There was no one with me
               G5    F#5
I was all alone, yeah
                                            Yeah!
VERSE 2:
Well, it's Easter morning now
And there's no one around
So I unroll the sermon
And walk into the town
There was no one with me
I was all alone
And I fought piranhas
And I fought the cold, yeah
G  O 2: Jack plays a decending 3-2-0 on the low E string while Johnny solos with a slide
VERSE 3:
Well, you know what it's like
I don't gotta tell ya
Who puts up a fight
Walkin' out of hell, now
When you fought piranhas
And you fought the cold
An' there's nobody with you
Yes, you're all alone, yeah
