Yael Naim - Far Far
(CAPO 2/3)
(http://youtube.com/watch?v=mvtP9PRvi60) I suggest watching that to help you out. Thanks
the chords just uploaded, I figured out some tabs which sound good to me. I believe
Capo 2 but it depends on your guitar's tuning and your vocal range, I suppose.
I tried my best to make this as easy as possible to understand. I went ahead and put the
out for the entire first verse, even though it's repetitive. I figured it'd be easier
people to read it for the first time. I didn't place each note precisely where they
be played, but they're close. Once you get the hang of it, the rest of the song is simple.
I can't tell exactly what she plays in the video so you can probably alter a lot of the
you pick (especially in the chorus, that's just how I do it).
So this is my first tablature, let me know if there's something wrong. Have fun!

**The strumming part is hard for me to time out onto here, so I would watch
the video for timing. The chords are the same as above except I believe she
holds her pinky on the 3rd fret of the high E string. **

there's a beautiful mess inside
(Same as Verse 1)
oh oh oh oh
(Same as Verse 1)
far far, there's this little girl
she was praying for something good to happen to her
from time to time there're colors and shapes
dazeling her eyes, tickeling her hands
they invent her a new world with
oil skies and aquarel rivers
but don't you run away already
please don't go oh oh
(Chorus)
how can you stay outside?
there's a beautiful mess inside
how an you stay outside?
there's a beautiful mess inside
take a deep breath and dive
there's a beautiful mess inside
how can you stay outside?
There's a beautiful mess
beautiful mess inside
(Same as Verse 1)
oh beautiful, beautiful
(Same as Verse 1)
far far there's this little girl
she was praying for something big to happen to her
every night she ears beautiful strange music
it's everywhere there's nowhere to hide
but if it fades she begs
"oh lord don't take it from me, don't take it yourselves"
i guess i'll have to give it birth

Cadd9, G, Em7, D
Cadd9, G, Em7, D, Am
Em7, Cadd9, D, Am

to give it birth
i guess, i guess, i guess i have to give it birth
i guess i have to, have to give it birth
there's a beautiful mess inside and it's everywhere
so shake it yourself now deep inside
deeper than you ever dared
deeper than you ever dared
there's a beautiful mess inside
beautiful mess inside
(Same as Verse 1)
beautiful mess inside,
beautiful mess inside
