Ok, most of the Boss's career he has favored the key of F. But on the Rising, his
album, he seems to be using a lot of Bb and Eb chord progressions. This song is a great
of this, it's Lonesome Day....
Standard tunning, Capo 3 (all chords and tabs relevant to capo)
key:Eb (might be Bb though)

Baby once I thought I knew, everything there was to know bout you, your
sweet whisper your tender touch, I didn't really know that much
Em F#/D Cadd9/
The jokes on me, but it's gonna be ok
If I can just get through this lonesome day
Lonesome day!
Hell's brewin', dark sun on the rise
This storm'll blow through by and by
House on fire, viper's in the grass
A little revenge and this too shall pass
Em F#/D Cadd9/
This too shall pass, I'm gonna pray
Right now, all I got's this lonesome day
Lonesome Day!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright...........oh

Better ask questions before you shoot
Deceit and betrayl's are a bitter fruit
It's hard to swallow come time to pay
that taste on your tounge don't easily slip away
Em F#/D Cadd9/
Let kingdom come, I'm gonna find my way
After this lonesome day
Lonesome day!
Lonesome day!! Lonesome day!!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright yea!
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright....yea!
Lonesome day!
Lonesome day!! Lonesome day!!
