This is a great song of buster cottam, hope they're coming with new songs of equal quality.
The lyrics aren't very accurate so if you have any suggestions they're always
are always welcome
generally!
But please don't come up with frustrated comments, it's not a paid job, just a hobby so
you don't understand the tab
just ask about it or look for another one.
These are the chords, if you don't know what a base string is, I marked them with an *:
B D#m7 E(VII) C#m F# G#m B(VII)
e-2- e-6- e-7- e-4- e-2- e-4- e-7-
B-4- B-7- B-9- B-5- B-2- B-4- B-7-
g-4- g-6- g-9- g-6- g-3- g-4- g-8-
d-4- d-8- d-9- d-6- d-4- d-6- d-9-
a-2-* a-6-* a-7-* a-4-* a-4- a-6- a-9-
e-2- e-6- e-7- e-4- e-2-* e-4-* e-7-
If you know how to play the intro, you can almost play the whole song, so if I didn't
the chords above the lyrics except
for the verse, cause if you know the principle it's better to do the timing of the
on feeling.
The rest of the chords which aren't the same as the verse are put above the lyrics to,
you don't understand anything you
can always leave a comment with a question or suggestio. and please rate the tab;)
Verse: (first play the base string of the chord* and then the chord itself)
