Elliot Smith - Fond Farewell
tabbed by: moveshhh9@gmail.com
credit to: grptertius@yahoo.com for fitting the words with the chords
This tab was made for beginners. I am writing this with them in mind.
Tuning: 1/2 step down (E♭-A♭-D♭-G♭-B♭-E♭)
EDIT: Changed BM to B. Also added barre chords, cause that's how Elliot plays
practically every song he ever wrote. I would love if someone figured out the
hammer-on's and pull-offs.
GUITAR 1: Open chord/Barre chord (same chords, barre chords sound better)

Intro:
Am C G Em (x3)
Am C
Verse 1:
GThe litebrite's now bClack and whiGte
Cause you tAmook apart a picture thatEm wasn't right
BmPitch burning on a sChining sheet
AmThe only maker that you'd Cwant to meet
EmThe dying man in a Cliving roGom
Whose shAmadow paces the Emfloor
BmHe'll take you out anyC open door
Chorus:
AmThis is not my Clife
It's just a fGond farewell to a friend
AmIt's not what I'm Clike
It's just a fGond farewell to a fEmriend
AmWho couldn't get things Cright
A fGond farewell to a fEmriend
Am C
Verse 2:
GHe said really I just Cwanna danGce
Good and Amevil matched perfect it's aEm great romance
BmI can deal with some pCsychic pain
AmIf it'll slow down my Chigher brain
EmVeins full of disapCpearing iGnk
AmVomiting in the kEmitchen sink
BmDisconnecting from the Cmissing link
Chorus:
AmThis is not my Clife
It's just a fGond farewell to a friend
AmIt's not what I'm Clike
It's just a fGond farewell to a fEmriend
AmWho couldn't get things Cright
A fGond farewell to a fEmriend
Am C
Verse 3:
GI see you're Cleaving mGe
AmAnd taking up with theEm enemy
BmThe cold comfort of the Cin between
AmA little less than a Chuman being
EmA little less than a Chappy higGh
AmA little less than aEm suicide
BmThe only things that you Creally tried
Chorus:
AmThis is not my Clife
It's just a fGond farewell to a friend
AmIt's not what I'm Clike
It's just a fGond farewell to a frEmiend
AmWho couldn't get thingsC right
A fGond farewell to a frEmiend
AmThis is not my Clife
It's just a fGond farewell to a fEmriend
