maybe not perfect , but tabbing and borrowing in roughly A 60/40 ratio have led me to
its the closest tab although the bridge might still be a wee bit off
intro , verse and chorus
Em A7 Fm7 Em
E | – 0 – – – 0 – – – 0 – – – 0 – |
B | – 0 – – – 2 – – – 1 – – – 0 – |
G | – 0 – – – 0 – – – 2 – – – 0 – |
D | – 2 – – – 2 – – – 3 – – – 2 – |
A | – x – – – x – – – x – – – x – |
E | – x – – – x – – – x – – – x – |
these chord forms sound better played around the fifth fret tone – wise imho , playing the
same notes just all one string down and the corresponding number of frets up ( for
frets 7 5 6 5 on strings A D G B for A7 )
after 20 seconds play with a funky strumming pattern . it also sounds good to throw in
hammer – ons and pull – offs ( i . E . B string open/First fret during the Fm7 ) , and if you are
at the fifth fret you have the option of playing the high E string 3rd fret for the Em
5th fret for the others which he does sometimes
bridge ( fast , maybe ska strumming pattern sounds good )
Bm7 F#m
someday , someday , this will be over
G *
well raise a family
F#m
ill get a job and ill be a voter
G *
and if i die
Em
it will change you
Fm7
i watch over a family
Em ( ring out )
but only as an angel
* possibly Gm7 instead of G , you decide!
back to standard chords until the end , i like a big ending so i play the full open chord
using all the strings from here on .
any suggestions are welcome although i think this sounds perfectly good for a nice wee
