Chords for Trampled Under Foot - Badlands EPK

Everybody ready?
Ready.
Mark it. _ _
_ _ _ Out of daddy's assheat
And [E] my baby's blue
It's somethin' [Am] wrong _ _
_ We started out on the blues
just [A] simply because we were,
I mean, we were born into it.
Our parents, when they first started,
they had done like rock
and kinda country rock.
[Am] They had found the blues
around when we were [C] young children.
[E] _ Grew up down [Am] south,
we were listening to our dad's record collection,
listening to a lot of [Dm] Beatles
and Zeppelin and [Am] things like that,
bands that had been [A] influenced by the blues.
I [Am] joke that we have
[D] had muddy waters from [G] the womb.
[Am] I've always considered what we do
is just a continuation of our parents'
family business.
_ [C#m] _ _ _ [E]
When you walk _ _ _ _ [B] _ _
[E] in your eyes
[Bm] They live
[B] hittin' around Kansas [E] City
and [B] that's always been a big blues town.
You know, if you come from Kansas City,
I think it gives you a leg up
if you're playing a little bit of [Bm] blues music.
And so it's really natural that I should come [B] to it honestly.
I gravitate [E] towards it [B] because it's
based [A] on emotion,
it's based on [B] reality,
it's based on not just pain and suffering
but joy and it's raw
and you [A] can't fake it.
_ [E] _
_ Lately
_ _ [A] _ _
Things [E] don't seem the same
_ There's really something [A] special
when [D] siblings get together
and start doing something [A] creatively like this.
[Bm] Daniel and I had already had careers
probably about [B] 10 years in bands
before we started playing [E] together.
And [Em] Chris had been playing for a while
and we really just kind of [E] came together
and decided to do something fun.
[A] You know, there's an understanding
that _ _ [C] _ probably goes beyond
what most [A] people get.
There's something [Em] about the harmony and
[E] convergence, it's a very special [A] formula.
[E] People down to the river _ _
_ _ Drinking Drinking Drinking water
_ There have been a lot of changes [B] in the band.
Danielle had [E] her baby in April of 2010.
A beautiful young boy.
Seeing Chris progress so much
over the last couple [F#] years
and Nick has as well but it's been
in [E] a different way.
[C#m] He sounds to me more like he's [E] singing through his guitar
rather than playing guitar.
_ Nick has become more solid.
[Am] Every solo is good.
He's been doing good, some are great.
[B] And it's part of being [Am] confident.
I think he's more confident now.
[E] He's got a great Americana approach too
with [A#] his dobro, [E] he plays great dobro.
_ Then I can get him to do something really quiet
and say, [C#m] let's turn all the grunge
off the [E] guitar and you just play
some [Em] sweet stuff on the strings.
_ _ [G] _
_ [D] Chris is amazing.
He's musically, he's always been consistent
and he has really
taken himself three levels
over the last couple years.
He's [G#m] like a rock.
He does fiddle around.
I look at him and he gives me a thumbs up.
I push record and they're [E] done.
I said, man I wish you looked down the street.
We'd spend some time together.
I would _ impart
some _ [G] secrets to you.
We were [C] so young
_ _ _ [G] _ _
_ [C] and our hearts so wild. _ _
When I saw him six [F] months
after the record had been released
for the first time live again, I just saw them
grow right into that.
[F#] They've grown even more since.
Now we're [D#] making this next record.
They've grown in [C] songwriting, they've grown in playing.
The [A] synergy is better.
What's different with this record?
First [Dm] off, we're all going [D] back into this
[D#m] process [F]
of making [D#] an album
[E] together _ as [B] friends
and knowing each [G] other
for a couple years now.
[E] _ We're a lot more comfortable
with the atmosphere and know what [B] we're walking into.
This record is better writing
[A#] _ _ [A] and a [E] more
gelled sound from the
three of them having played live so much
and figured [Bm] out who they are.
[G#m] On my songwriting, I'm [B] really trying to
get out of the
_ he did
[F#m] _ her wrong, she [A#] did him wrong,
boy [E] girl, blues songs, you know, kind of stuff
like that.
So I'm really trying to
branch [B] out and write more
from perspectives and just write [F#] more
from life rather than just my
_ [B]
personal experiences.
They seem much more comfortable with who
they are and what they're trying to [E] do.
It's going to be a little [B] different in that
it's just a little more [C#] evolved.
As an artist, you [B] work hard and
progress.
So every
[E] time you go to the studio, you get
a little further along and _
looking [B] at it from a new, more experienced approach.
I did their [E] last album with them [B] and
I can see a [F#m] marked
improvement just in a couple years.
Not that they weren't good then,
they were, [C#] but _
they're just maturing as a group
and as individual musicians.
[F#] The difference between this next tough album
and Wrong Side of the Blues is that I'm in a [B] way
better place in my life right now.
I've always written about what I'm going
through.
It's always been honesty.
This [Bm] album, you know, I've
had time to [B] heal and
I'm coming out of it and I'm kind of seeing the [F#] light
and I'm seeing the silver [B] lining and I've got
and over the last two years
I've got a beautiful family, I've got a beautiful
baby [C] boy.
I think [A] the story about
them as a [F#] family
[B] is going to be a great [Dm] story to be told
and a great story to be heard.
[E] A couple years [D] ago I thought she
was a good singer.
[E] Now I think she's
a fantastic singer.
I really [B] do.
I think, I mean, I worked
with Etta James, so I know
something about great women singers.
You know, and Danielle is a great
female vocalist, let me tell you.
I [Am] trusted you
and I had your back
[G] [Dm] You turned
all _ that [F] stuff back there
My [Am] baby, feeling
warm, [E] my baby doing something [Am] wrong _ _ _ _
_ [F#] _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ _ _
_ [B] Ready?
Nice.
On the mouse?
Yeah. _
_ [C] _ _ My brother-in-law has a remote control.
