The Chain by Fleetwood Mac guitar tab (text):#
The Chain
by: Fleetwood Mac
originally from the album: Rumours 1977
this version from: The Dance 1997
Lindsey Buckingham plays this song in DADGBD tuning using his trademark
Travis picking style. I'll try to tab this song as close as possible,
but I'm no Lindsey Buckingham and I sure can't Travis pick like he can.
chords used:
A5: 555XXX
D5: X577XX
Bb5: X133XX
C5: X355XX

And if you don't love me now, you will never love me again.

I can still hear you sayin' you would never break the chain.
A5
And if you don't love me now, you will never love me again.
D5 Bb5 C5
I can still hear you sayin' you would never break the chain.
Verse 2(use the same progression as verse 1):
Listen to the wind blow
Down comes the night
Runnin' in the shadows
Damn your love
Damn your lies
Break the silence
Damn the dark
Damn the light
Chorus, then:
D-------------------2--2----------
B-----3--------------3--3---------

Then comes the bass part. I'll transpose it to guitar just for fun.
G--------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------
D-5--5--7-6-7-5-3-5-7-0----------------
The end of the song's guitar part is VERY easy, so I'll just transpose
parts of it to get you started. You'll be able to figure out the rest
D-------0--------------12-12-10-12-Then there's:15-12-15-12------------
B-3-3-1-3-Then there's:------------------------------------------------
G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------
A----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------
Lindsey plays that very last lead part throughout the rest of the song
while they're singing "The chain will keep us together". That's about it
for the song. The timing isn't perfect, so listen to the album to get it
right. Once you master that Travis picking, the song will come
together fast. Have fun with this one. It took me forever to tab it.
