Song: Do What You Gotta Do
Artist: Garth Brooks
Transcriber: Adam Tidwell (Wish_13@hotmail.com)
COWPIE already has a version of this but a lot of parts are wrong. Here's a
revised version. This song has my favorite part of any song: "They'll come
lookin' for someone to blame" in acapella, 3 part harmony. You gotta admit,
it's pretty cool. E-mail me with corrections or suggestions.
DROP D TUNING
For the intro strum D and play around with you pinky on the third fret.
You’ll figure it out.
Verse 1:
D G D
Sometimes you've got to take the heat
D G D
If your gonna walk down on the mean street
G Bm
Take the heat and you see it through
A
'Cause sometimes it comes down to
D G Bm A
Do what you gotta do
Verse 2:
D G D
Sometimes it goes right down to the wire
D G D
And you might have to walk through the fire
G Bm
Walk on, boy, all the way through
A
'Cause sometimes it just comes down to
D
Do what you gotta do
Chorus 1:
G
Well there's people that'll tell you its just no use
A
And there's people that'll tell you that your gonna lose
D A Bm A G A
People that'll tell you anything your going to listen to
Do what you gotta do
Verse 3:
G Bm A
D G D
Someday they're going to call your name
*No Chord* D
They'll come looking for someone to blame
G Bm
What's your name, boy, hey you just tell them true
A
'Cause they can't take the truth from you
D A A D
So do what you gotta do
Chorus 2:
G
Well, they'll call you a hero or a traitor
A
But you'll find out that, sooner or later,
D A Bm D G
Nobody in this world is gonna do it for you
A D
Do what you gotta do
D A Bm
There ain't nobody in this world
A G A
That's gonna do it for you
D G A D
Do what you gotta do
