Pay Attention ... Wood Brothers
Play along to get the feel for the 6/8 time signature and strumming pattern.
Oliver plays it live with a capo on the 3rd fret.
All fingerings are standard w/ capo.
This is my best attempt and may not be 100% but is pretty darn close.

Harmonica is in key of C for you bad-asses out there.
(Intro)A, F#m, E, D, G, D, E
[A]Pl[D]ea[A]se[E] pay attention to me
A Gm9\
Was the last thing I heard before I drifted to sleep
[D]Wi[A]th[D] c[A]hildren to tend to, and worry in mind
D A Gm9\
Too much to do, and not enough time
CHORUS
[D]I [A]ha[D]te[A] to be needy; Selfish and greedy
[F#m]But [D]pl[A]ease pay attention to me
(HARMONICA)
A, F#m, E, D, G, D, E
[A]Pl[D]ea[A]se[E] pay attention to me,
A Gm9\
Was the last thing I heard comin' out of my dream
[D]I'[A]ve[D] g[A]ot something to tell you When the sun has gone down
D A Gm9\
And if you don't listen, I talk much too loud
CHORUS
[D]I [A]ha[D]te[A] to be needy; Selfish and greedy
[F#m]But [D]pl[A]ease pay attention to me
...E
[F#m]Why [A]don't you look my way
[F#m]I'm [Em]wavin' my arms and callin' your name
[D]Th[A]er[D]e'[A]s too much to mention that grabs your attention
[F#m]But [D]pl[A]ease pay attention to me
HARMONICA SOLO
D -A -E -A -Gm9 -D -A -D -A -D -A -E
[F#m]Cuz [A]I could cut myself free
[F#m]And [Em]why should I care if you listen to me
[D]Wi[A]th[D] c[A]hildren to tend to, and worry in mind
D A Gm9\
Too much to do, and not enough time
I hate to be needy; Selfish and greedy
I hate to keep asking, beggin' and pleading
I'm down on my knees - under your window screaming
Please pay attention to me
Please pay attention to me
Yeah - Please pay attention to me
Hope you enjoy- please rate if so! Help others find this awesome song! -Dave A
