MOFRO - Circles

*This song is just F#-A all the way through for the most part. Just get the beat and play.

F#-A

Some say that I wronged you but I don't know how ?
If I could make it right you know I would, you know I would ?
So please forgive me for what some other man did too you ? Before I came along
Cuz I don't want to go on fighting and fussing over something ? I can't change at all ?

There's no way I can change the past or your pain ? I don't want to fight walking in circles
I'm not the one who hurt you so deep down ? Let's start a new now walking in circles ?

If time heals all wounds then change comes slow - so slow
But if I see a smile on your face the sun may yet Lord shine on us ?

There's no way I can change the past or your pain ? I don't want to fight walking in circles
I'm not the one who hurt you so deep down ? Let's start a new now walking in circles ?
I'm not the one who hurt you so deep down ? Let's start a new now walking in circles
There's no way I can change the past or your pain ? I don't want to fight walking in circles
I'm not the one who hurt you so deep down ? Let's start a new now walking in circles

MOFRO - Country Ghetto

(D)I see the look in your (C)eyes I know I'm (G)simple and (D)plain /
(D)A country boy can't sur(C)vive too many (G)ways in your (D)game /
(D)So you can say what you (C)will about your (G)helping (D)hand /
(D)I know I'll never be (C)more than just your (G)dumb white (D)trash /

(Harmonica)

Love touches us all yes we're black and we're white /
Out here in the cut still living side by side /
So never mind what you've seen and just forget what you've heard /
Another ignorant redneck just some Hollywood words /

/ (C)Life in a (G)country (D)ghetto / / (x4)

(Harmonica)

(D)No I'm not tame / The only voice that (C)speaks for me (G)speaks from this (D)clay /
Little boy you ain't never take a dime from the man /
Starve to death before you live by a government handout / They call us poverty /

/ (C)Life in a (G)country (D)ghetto

MOFRO - Lochloosa

*What a great Mofro tune! Simple. Listen to the song for the rhythm.

C-G-F-C

Homesick but it's alright ? Lochloosa is on my mind ? She's on my mind ?
Homesick but it's alright ? Lochloosa is on my mind ? She's on my mind ?

I swear it's ten thousand degrees in the shade ? Lord have mercy knows - how much I love it ?
Every mosquito every rattlesnake ? Every cane break - everything ?
Every alligator every blackwater swamp ? Every freshwater spring - everything ?
All we need is one more damn developer ? Tearing her heart out ?
All we need is one more Mickey Mouse ? Another golf course another country club ? Another gated community ?

Lord I need her ? Lord I need her ? And she's slipping away ?
If my grandfather could see her now ? He'd lay down and die ?

Cause every minute every second every hour ? Every day - Lord she's slipping away ?

Homesick but it's alright ? Lochloosa is on my mind ? She's on my mind
Homesick but it's alright ? Lochloosa is on my mind ? She's on my mind ?

MOFRO - The Sun is Shining Down

*This is pretty close I think. You can probably go with either the Bbm or a Bb.
Also, after wathcing J.J. at a show I noticed when playing the C# he just slides
his index finger (bass note) from the fourth fret to the third fret while staying
at the C# position rather than playing the G#. This only applies during the verses.
The chorus definitely includes the G# chord.

C#-G#-Bbm-F#

How many more (C#)days can you (G#)hold out ? (Bbm) (F#)
How much (C#)longer can you wait (G#) she (Bbm)asked ? (F#)
There was a (C#)time I thought (G#)I, I could an(Bbm)swer ? (F#)
But my (C#)tongue gets (G#)tied as my (Bbm)thoughts drift a(F#)way ?

(C#) Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah / (C#)
The sun is (G#)shining, shin(Bbm)ing down ? (F#)
(C#) Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah ?
I'm a(C#)live (G#)and I'm (Bbm)feeling, feeling (F#)fine ?

(C#)All those (G#)simple thoughts (Bbm)all those (F#)peaceful dreams ?
(C#)Share the (G#)space with a (Bbm)hard worked, hard worked (F#)day
But it's the (C#)little things, the (G#)little things (Bbm)not expec(F#)tation
That make (C#) (G#)life worth (BbM)living, worth (F#)living ?

(C#)Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah ? (C#)
The sun is (G#)shining, shin(Bbm)ing down / (F#)
(C#)Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah ?
I'm a(C#)live, (G#)And the (Bbm)world Lord, world is (F#)fine ? (C#)
Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah ? (C#)
The sun is (G#)shining, shin(Bbm)ing down ? (F#)
(C#)Glory, (G#)Glory - (Bbm)Halle(F#)lujah ?
I'm a(C#)live (G#)and I'm (Bbm)feeling Lord, feeling, feeling, feeling fine

The Sun Is Shining Down, I presume the chords outlined are played arpeggio. Is that right? Or are they just an intune chord progression?
I'm a beginner guitarist (of only a few months) and having trouble making it sound like it should. Any dropped tuning involved?

Also (Bbm) what does that equate to? B minor?

Nice guitar story...I was at the Gibson Guitar Factory in Memphis, TN waiting in the shop there before my tour and some dude starting playing a very familiar tune, and because it was so out of context I couldnt place it but finally realized it was War. MOFRO fans are everywhere.
