Jeff Buckley Calling You (ver 3) guitar tab

Calling You (ver 3) by Jeff Buckley

   _______________
  / Jeff Buckley  /  This song is off the soundtrack to the film "Bagdad Caf�",
 / Calling You   /  originally sung by Jevetta Steele, and it was an instant 
/_______________/  classic in Buckley's years, perhaps bigger the film itself.

Jeff Buckley's version of this is only exist in two versions, to my knowledge:
One version from the live album "Live at Sin-�", and one crude studio version.

- STANDARD TUNING
- CAPO 1st FRET, in the studio version, producing the original key of Db major,
  and no capo in the live version, producing the key of C major.

GUITAR INTERLUDE
 The strumming here is a bit unarticulated, but notice the chord
 voicings and the Hendrix-esque fills.

CHORUS
 These are the brilliant chord voicings. Buckley strums the notes again
 here and there, but these notes are the essential ones.
 The notes in parentheses ( ) are cool extra notes.

    "
 1.   A desert to road from Vegas to nowhere
      Some place better than where you've been
      A coffee machine that needs some fixing
      In a little cafe just around the bend

 2.   A hot dry wind blows right through me
      A baby is crying and I can't sleep
      We all know a change is coming
      Coming closer, sweet release
                                   "
