The Band - The Weight (Piano and Guitar Cover)

I couldn't find a piano cover of this song that sounds like the record, so I made my own and added some guitar! Hope you enjoy!

Amazing job on the piano fills. They’re tricky!

[@nathanwahl9224]

Freakin awesome! Especially the piano riffs! Now all I have to do is transpose it to G, pick up the bass line with a left split, and add in a Hammond on the walk downs. Oh, and sing lead on verse 4, the first ANDs, harmony on the choruses and the whole last verse. Simple! But oh, my, for a 3-piece band we sound AWESOME, and now it'll be even better with the riffs!!!

[Verse 1] I pulled in to Nazareth Was feeling 'bout half past dead I just need someplace Where I can lay my head "Hey, mister, can you tell me Where a man might find a bed?" He just grinned and shook my hand "No" was all he said [Chorus] Take a load off, Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny And (And, and) You put the load right on me (You put the load right on me) [Verse 2] I picked up my bag I went looking for a place to hide When I saw Carmen and the Devil Walking side-by-side I said, "Hey Carmen Come on, let's go downtown" She said, "I gotta go But my friend can stick around" [Chorus] Take a load off, Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny And (And, and) You put the load right on me (You put the load right on me) [Verse 3] Go down, Miss Moses There's nothin' you can say It's just ol' Luke, and Luke's waitin' on the Judgement Day "Well, Luke, my friend What about young Anna Lee?" He said, "Do me a favor, son Won't ya stay and keep Anna Lee company?" [Chorus] And take a load off, Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny And (And, and) You put the load right on me (You put the load right on me) [Verse 4] Crazy Chester followed me And he caught me in the fog He said, "I will fix your rack If you'll take Jack, my dog" I said, "Wait a minute, Chester You know I'm a peaceful man" He said, "That's okay, boy Won't you feed him when you can?" (Yeah) [Chorus] Take a load off, Fanny Take a load for free Take a load off, Fanny And (And, and) You put the load right on me (You put the load right on me) [Verse 5] Catch a cannonball, now To take me down the line My bag is sinkin' low And I do believe it's time To get back to Miss Fanny You know she's the only one Who sent me here with her Regards for everyone
