Green Spandex Chords by Xavier Rudd, www.Ultimate-Guitar.Com

For those who want to try a different version to the tab already here, this is 
the way I play
it.  For the lyrics and structure of the song I have the author of the previous
 tab to thank,
all I've done is changed a few of the chords, and added a couple of bits and pi
eces.  
There are something like 4 different recordings of this song, so as always use 
this as a guide
and play it how you think it should be played, the number of recordings might b
e the reason
why this differs from the other version here, dont know which one I think Im pl
aying, it
may be a fusion of a few, and of course it aint perfect ;)

Intro:  (not exact, fiddle with it as you wish) This is in the Live In Canada, 
and the EP
version, not in Solace or Good Spirit, but I like it :)

Dunno if the last bit is hammer-ons and pull-offs or not, just do what you want
.

The verse has the progression D, G, C, D 3 times.
The first D of each progression should include the hammer-on as in the very beg
inning of the
intro,

eg
|2--
|3--
|0h2
|0--

the last D should end with something simmilar to the very last bit of the intro
.

D                             G
Well I guess this is, the rushed goodbye
C                                 D
That I thought would never come
D                   G
The woman who lit some light
C                     D

For a family in the dark
D               G
Staring at the, mi_rror
       C                    D
I see your smile through my own
D                  G
Spark imbedded deep inside
C
Will give me strength
D
Will give us hope

Bridge *
C         G                D   **
And I'll never lose your touch
C        G            D   ***
And I'll never lose touch

*If you want to, play the C and G in the bridge using the bottom few strings wi
th a bit 
palm muting.
**  something you can add on after 'touch'

Chorus  (fiddle with Dsus4 and Dsus2 combinations after the first 2 D's, simila
r to above)

Em          G            D
This will take me a while
Em             G         D
Because I miss your smile and I
C          G              D          G
I guess I knew your time would come
C               G           D
But for now I miss your smile


D                       G
Thank you for your loyal stance
        C                      D
Green spandex and crazy style
D                     G
Thank you for the happiness
    C               D
That you gave to our lives
D                       G
Although now our hearts are cracked
        C                      D
And our tears are slow to dry
D                               G
We must count ourselves the lucky ones
        C                       D
For we were with you in your prime
