These are the two main chords that make up the song
(actually, the main riff)
E--2--2--2-------2-------|
B--3--3--3-------3-------|
G--2--2--2-------0-------|
D--0-----0-------0-------|
A--------0---0---x-------|
E----------------3-------|
Strum those in rhythm, and it should sound right.
Those are the chords for all of the verse parts.
For the bridge, just apreggiate them.
The verse is just a repetition on those chords for 8 bars I think,
heres the chorus
I'm almost drowning in her sea, shes nearly crawlin on her knees
Fpr the last chorus, its
I'm almost drowning in her sea, she's nearly crawlin on her knees,
It's almost everything I need
Essentailly for everything not Tabbed out, play the main riff.
Good luck!

Sullivan Street by Counting Crows
from August and Everything After
Words: Adam Duritz
Music: Adam Duritz & David Bryson
This is a very simple song to play involving a few easy chords with
alternating bass strings played. The effectiveness comes from the haunting,
soulful vocals.
D/G =
D chord with
G bass (300032)
Intro:
D/
D/
Took the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
D/
Across the water and home through the town
D/
Past the shadows that fall down wherever we meet
D/
Pretty soon now, I won't come around //// (strong strum)
I'm almost drowning in her sea
She's nearly fallen to her knees
D/
Took the way home .....(Ba, Ba, Baaaa)
D/
Took the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
D/
Where all the bodies hang on the air
D/
If she remembers she hides it whenever we meet
D/
Either way now I don't really care
'Cause I'm gone from there
I'm almost drowning in her sea
D (arpeggio*)
she's nearly crawling on her knees
She's down on her knees
She's down on her knees
(strum)
D/
Took the way home that leads back to Sullivan Street
D/
Where I'm just another rider burned to the ground
Come tumbling down
I'm almost drowning in his sea
She's near me, crawling on her knees
D/
It's almost everything I need.
I'm down on my knees
I'm down on my knees
I'm down on....
down on my knees.
I'm down on my knees.
*Arpeggio:
D pluck 4&1 together, then 1,2,3,1,2,3
D/G pluck 6&1 together, same pattern
