A F#m Bm E x2 AGraceland Tabs – Paul Simon V4
This is the Josh Turner version (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtYKjQLgnOs),
although it works just as great even if you’re just jamming to the original track.
The fingerpicking patterns may not be note for note perfect in all parts, but they’re pretty much as
accurate as you can get by just watching the video. Josh does vary the patterns slightly, so feel free to
take some liberties. As far as technique goes, in the verses and interludes your thumb should almost
always be alternating between the bass note and the D-string (a technique known as Travis picking).
The chorus is arguably the hardest part of the song, but you should be able to get it with some practice.
I’ve included a snippet of the chorus at the end of the tab that shows which finger should fret each note.
The quick E and D barre chords in the chorus are probably easiest to play by picking the first two
notes with your thumb, the third with your index finger and the fourth with your middle finger.
Legend:
t - 10th fret
e - 11th fret
/ - slide
h - hammer-on
p - pull-off
()- ghost note

Krapp sving
Intro - Em – C - D - C - D - Em - C - D - C - D Em C
Det e jaggu meg tid å tenke på
D C D
Hvilken vei du vil, og du velger å gå
Em C
Jeg har følt meg som en ensom mann
D C D
Og jeg har sagt at jeg føler jeg har gjort alt jeg kan
Em C
Jeg har vært din kjærest i mange år
D C D
Og jeg skjønner hva som skjer, jeg veit hva jeg får
Em C
Jeg har blitt litt lei, men jeg tenker på deg
D C D
Men ingenting blir som før, og jeg ser
Em
At kjærligheten dør
Em C
Jeg gikk inni ditt hus og jeg fikk en rus
D C D¨
Da jeg så deg ligge der, uten klær
Em C
Du sa hva er det du vil, ja vær så snill
D C D
Kan du vennligst forlate mitt rom, er du dum
Em C
Jeg ble kasta ut og jeg banka Knut
D C D
Og blodet hans lå utover gølvet ditt
Em C
Han mista en tann da jeg banka han
D C D
Og regninga kom sigende
Em C D
Det var en krapp sving, ingen gullring i min framtid
Em C D
Det var elendighet i kjærlighet på min gangsti
Em C D C D
Og det blir tid å tenke på og gjøre noe med det
Em C
Jeg fikk en klem da jeg hilste hjem
D C D
For bak min rygg sto onkel politi
Em C
Så jeg må inn å gå bak lås og slå
D C D
Med graut til middag og til kvelds
Em C
Jeg er her for å bli, men jeg har god tid
D C D
Og det jeg ser er at årene går
Em C
Men jeg skal finne en vei som fører fram til deg
D C D
Og om en og tjue år så er jeg på vei
Em C D
Det var en krapp sving, ingen gullring i min framtid
Em C D
Det var elendighet i kjærlighet på min gangsti
Em C D C D
Og det blir tid å tenke på og gjøre noe med det
Em C
Jeg har arva ett hus med en kattepus
D C D
Som sitter og stirrer meg i øya hele da’n
Em C
Og jeg er ganske smart, men syns det er jævla rart
D C D
At jeg må sitta her, og helt aleine
Em C
Men når jeg har tenkt meg om og ingen kom
D C D
Så har jeg vel lagt opp til det sjøl
Em C
Men kanskje jeg får en gang neste år
D C D
Ett kyss på munn og en hau av flotte kvinnfolk
Men ser ut til å bli
Em C D
En krapp sving, ingen gullring i min framtid
Em C D
Det blir elendighet i kjærlighet på min gangsti
Em C D C D
Og det blir tid å tenke på og gjøre noe med det
Em C D
Det blir en krapp sving, ingen gullring i min framtid

Intro: C C F C
A winter's day in a deep and dark December
Dm G F C
I am alone
Dm G Dm G
Gazing from my window to the streets below
Dm F G
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
I've built walls, a fortress deep and mighty
Dm G F C
That none may penetrate
Dm G Dm G
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain
Dm F G
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
Don't talk of love, but I've heard the words before
Dm G F C
It's sleeping in my memory
Dm G Dm G
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died
Dm F G
If I never loved I never would have cried
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
C F C
I have my books and my poetry to protect me
Dm G F C
I am shielded in my armor
Dm G Dm G
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb
Dm F G
I touch no one and no one touches me
C G C Am
I am a rock, I am an is-land
F Em C
And a rock feels no pain
F Em C
and an island never cries
