Tupelo
--------------------
It seems I figured out the actual bass intro and verse line:

A----7--------7--------7----
E--0--0-0---0--0-0---0--0-0-

This pattern follows over the whole song, I believe, except for the 
chorus when it goes into a related patern in a D shape... If you want 
just play a D over and over and back to E


   Looka yonder! Looka yonder!
                                   Em
   Looka yonder! A big black cloud come!
   O comes to Tupelo. Comes to Tupelo. 


   Yonder on the horizon.
    Em
   Stopped at the mighty river and
   Sucked the damn thing dry.
        Em  D       
   Tupelo-o-o, O Tupelo.
                                        Em
   In a valley hides a town called Tupelo. 


   Em
   Distant thunder rumble. Rumble hungry like the Beast.
   The Beast it cometh. Cometh down. Wo wo wo-o-o.
                      Em  D   
   Tupelo bound. Tupelo-o-o. Yeah Tupelo.
                                  Em
   The Beast it cometh. Tupelo bound.

        Working for some man who may not know at all who i might be
                                          Am   
        If you ever see me coming and if you know who i am
                    D                               G   
        Don't you breathe it to nobody 'cause you know i'm on the lamb
