I'm pretty sure, almost positive, that this is the correct version and the way
Drew actually plays it (which means no capo, trust me) of "Smelyalata". Christopher Drew
on the second fret because his guitar is dropped a half step down; D#, which is
to being in Standard tuning.

Verse One:
FM C
I know that I've been dancing around the truth,
FM C G
Tell me what the hell I'm supposed to do.
FM C
And I, I'm a little bit agitated,

With a slight scent of denile.
Note:(The last two chords; "FM" and "G", are only strummed once; from the Low to High E
in a nice and easy, slow downward motion.)

I wont try that again.
