Home J Jimi Hendrix Highway Chile Guitar Tab

------------------------------------------------------------
JIMI HENDRIX - HIGHWAY CHILE. ARE YOU EXPERIENCED album.
Released in the UK on 12th May 1967.
------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by PJVillanueva
Yeah, his guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his cadillac
Uh flamin’ hair just a blowin’ in the wind
Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin
He left home when he was seventeen
The rest of the world he had longed to see
And everybody knows the boss
A rolling stone who gathers no moss
But you’d probably call him a tramp
But it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway chile, yeah
Now some people say he had a girl back home
Who messed around and did him pretty wrong
They tell me it kinda hurt him bad
Kinda made him feel pretty sad
I couldn’t say what went through his mind
Anyway, he left the world behind
But everybody knows the same old story,
In love and war you can’t lose in glory
Now you’d probably uh call him a tramp
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway chile
Walk on brother, yeah
One more brother
His old guitar slung across his back
His dusty boots is his cadillac
Flamin’ hair just a blowin’ in the wind
Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin
Now you may call him a tramp
But I know it goes a little deeper than that
He’s a Highway chile
Walk on brother
Don’t let no one stop you
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
Rollin' stone
Go on down the highway
Rollin' on
Highway chile
Yeah yeah yeah
Highway chile
Ow!
Standard tuning
12/8 time

Interesting Hendrix song. Technically...not easy to play...has fascinated me for yonks and I'm a professional player. Lyrically it feels that it's about the drifter...the young person..the rebel...who is put down by those around him...Jimi gives him a hero status... the explorer that left the world behind..we don't know what his background is ...it could be this or it could be that..it's the drifter as hero..long live Kerouac. It could be autobiographical yet it's more...I identified with this song when I was seventeen, so did others that I know who left home looking for a more fulfilling life. Anyway it's not the easiest Hendrix song to play...ask your local guitarist to do the whole thing...not just the bends at the beginning,

MSK941, you are entitled to your opinions, but I don't think any of Hendrix's songs suck. Also, I don't think that this song is about Jimi himself. Notice the line "Flamin' hair a blowin' in the wind". Flaming hair is used to discribe red/ginger colored hair. Hendrix's hair is definately not red/ginger. However, I do believe that the song is definately partially influenced by Hendrix's own expriences. Pretty good song, though not my favorite fro Hendrix.
