STONES IN THE ROAD (Mary Chapin Carpenter)
------------------------------------------
[Actually in Bb; capo 3; tuning: DADF#GD.]
[The chords need some explanation.  There are two ways to play G, and two
 ways to play D.  The chords that say G? or D? are places where she sometimes
 plays it one way, and sometimes the other.  (It doesn't mean I'm not sure
 about the chord!)  Also, the chord names are over-simplified; Am7 is really
 Am7(4), Em is really Em9, etc.]

[G = 055500;  D = 000020;  C(9) = 230100;  D* = 453000;  Am7 = 777600;
 G* = 020100;  Gsus4 = 030100;  Em = 222000;  Em/D = 022000;  Em* = 222100.]
[Thanks a lot to Chris Pelow (pelow@krdc.int.alcan.ca) for the help with the
 chord fingerings, and John Smiley (jd4147@halcyon.com) for the videotape.]
