Tuning: G C E A
Hello! so this song is a little confusing to play but not too hard once you get the hang of it.
It's an 8 bar structure so in the first bit you just play an open G for all 8 beats then in the
chorus you switch to 2 on G for 4 beats, 4 on G for 4 beats, then back to an open G for 8 more
beats. thEn in the 2nd intro bit you switch octaves and play the 3 on E instead of the open G.
(fancy! (but you don't have to do it if it's too hard, you can stick to the open G if you want))
Also, in the 2nd chorus it switches from how it is in 1st--instead of just playing only the
open G for 7 beats, (after the first 9 beats) you play the A and E strings for the last 2 beats
the first 3 times you play it, and then back to the way it is in the first chorus for the fourth
time. Basically: the first, second and third time you play it through, the G is open for five
beats, then on "a nod of pity for the plain girl" the G is open for 7.
Lastly, in the final chorus it's the same kinda thing as above but you play it the way it is in
the chorus only 2 times instead of 3, then with the G open for 7, and then finish by plucking
all four strings on an Am7, G, then C.
Kinda confusing but trust me it makes sense once you play it and get the hang of it!
p.s. if you want to change this to the original key (D), you can play it with capo 7 if you do
X340 instead of 73X0 in the intro and chorus so you can fit on the frets :)

I gotta get up early tomorrow again.
