i like to play the verse chords with as many fingers as i can. (does
that make any sense?) i think it allows for a more controled muting.
it also sounds good to barre them. of course it also sounds goo to playy
the bass part of the verses.
it goes like this:
Fm Bbm C Fm
e|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
B|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
G|------------------|-----------------|-----------------|------------------|
D|------------------|-------3-------3-|-------5-------5-|------------------|
A|-------3--------3-|-1-3/4---1-3/4---|-3-5/7---3-5/7---|-------3--------3-|
E|-1-3/4----1-3/4---|-----------------|-----------------|-1-3/4----1-3/4---|
repeat that a couple times
(words: [Fm]all night long on the broken glass
[Bbm]living in a medicine chest
[C]mediteromainian hotel back
[Fm]sprawled across a roll top desk.
etc...)
the chorus is like this:
[Bbm7]sell me one of those if i shave my head
[Eb]get me out of town is what fire ball said
[Ab]never trust a man in a blue trench coat
[Ab]never drive a car when you're dead
[Bm*]Saturday's a festival, Friday's a gem
[C]dye your hair yellow and raise your hem
[Fm*]follow me to Beulah's on dry creek road
[Fm*]i just got to wear the dress that my baby done sowed
for the last two Fm chords, i like to play this:
(these are straight quarter notes)
