Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - There She Goes My Beautiful World

“there she goes , my beautiful world”
nick cave and the bad seeds
abattoir blues/the lyre of orpheus
2004

this is a pretty easy song , you just go back and forth from Cm and F during all the
verse and bridge parts .
the chorus is the only part that is different , where you play [ C G Am F G ] .
but since i’m anal about this kinda thing , i’ll put it out clearly here .

Cm * Cm
E | – – x – – – – – 3 – – |
B | – – x – – – – – 4 – – |
G | – – 0 – – – – – 5 – – |
D | – – 1 – – – – – 5 – – |
A | – – 3 – – – – – 3 – – |
E | – – x – – – – – 3 – – |

x = don’t play these strings

– using my Cm * chord is optional , but it adds some nice , tense subtlety to the verses i
like to use it in .
– i’ll put the capo iii chords at the bottom of the tab
