Fifteen Keys - Uncle Tupelo
Notes: 
1. This is my own interpretation, could not find chords for this song
anywhere on line, so I worked it out on my own. I'm also a beginner, so
there may be more advanced chords that can be used. Suggestions welcome!
2. I play a Cadd9 on this, but C would work also. For a slightly different
sound, Cmaj7 works also.
3. This is my second posting of this song, I neglected to add the instrumental 
break after verse 2 in the original.
Cadd9Watch it Gseparate in Emtwo
Cadd9Whatever the Gday Emwants it to
Cadd9Finding out that the Gworst is Emtrue
Cadd9Finding out that it Gcan esEmcape you
CHORUS:
EmSlings and Cadd9arrows completes the Dscore
Always Gleaving, Dwanting more
And I Amtry to throw it Cadd9awayG  Em  
Cadd9Silver spikes and Gmace disEmplayed in your eyes
Cadd9Fearlessness, cannot Gfathom What's Emon your mind
Cadd9Been there, no luck at all
Nothing left to GloseD  
Cadd9Been there, no luck at Emall
Nothing left to GloseD  
I've been Amthere
Cadd9 D G D Am Cadd9 G D Am Cadd9 G Em
Cadd9"Danger/Slow" says the Gsign aEmhead
Cadd9Exhaust fumes, Thin GLizzy inEmstead
Cadd9Left all pressing Gcares along the Emroad
Cadd9Fifteen Gkeys, but where do they Emgo?
CHORUS:
EmSlings and Cadd9arrows completes the Dscore
Always Gleaving, Dwanting more
And I Amtry to throw it Cadd9awayG  Em  
Cadd9Strings that pull, Gstrings that bend
This Emsong and dance never Amends
D  G  D  Am  Cadd9
