Pansy Waltz - Shakey Graves Tabbed by: Ernie First time posting a song so go really hard on me. I watched the Pickathon 2014 video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9lerW7bCbeg) to get these chords and lyrics. The lyrics I did by ear so let me know if I messed them up. Also this is a really hard song to play so if you can even get close you must be an awesome guitar player! Good work! Corrected lyrics thanks to BorisBarratt. As HolyRoller12 points out, sounds like Shakey alternates b/w bass notes on the Bm and Cm. Tuning:Standard (eBGDAE) G or G Bm Cm D C B5 Em D7#9 e|----3----3-----2-2---3-3--2--------x-------------------------------------------| B|---------3-----3-3---4-4--3---1----x-------------------------------------------| G|---------4-----4-4---5-5--2--------x----------5--------------------------------| D|---------5-----4-4---5-5--x---2----x----2-----4--------------------------------| A|---(2)---5-----2-x---3-x--x---3----2----2-----5--------------------------------| E|----3----3-----x-2---x-3--x---x----2-------------------------------------------| He plugs in his acoustic to give it some grit. If I figure out the levels, I'll post them, if I remember. The first stanza is muted. Verse:
Well he's oGut of season out of sync but lord what must his family think Bmand you must be getting his feathers wet. CmBut she always seems to be the talk Until she drops you like a rock You Gshould’ve been a bDetter friend tCo him.
GWell I dusted all the bones were in my yard I fixed the screen door, raised the barn BmBut still you call me from the moon Every single afternoon CmTell me all about the astronauts you come to love And how the earth looks from above And how I sGhould’ve been a Dbetter friend toC you.
But I nGever seen life as a chore, a Ctreasure for to fGind B5 Em C D7#9 x 3 I’ve read the news, abused the booze, and often wondered why GMy smile remains though I'm thinking pains tChe averagGe passerby B5 Well they’ll Emsink like stones into their homes away from teeth like mine.
Whoo!! (Like Shakey Does) Follows the same progression as the verse: G - Bm - Cm - G - D - C
GWell I’m sure I came to hate my skin and all the holes you’re digging in BmThe way you let my leg waltz through each way Cmby your side well you shoGuld’ve been a Dbetter friend of Gmine
GWell I saw in you a brand new bird the song of which I never heard BmYou know it was a melody so fine that whole world would pine CmAnd it’s a tune to give the boys the blues and turn the horses into glue You know I shoGuld’ve been a Dbetter friend toC you Yeah I shouGld have been a beDtter friend to yCou
But I Gnever seen life as a chore, aC treasure for to Gfind B5 Em C D7#9 x 3 I’ve read the news, abused the booze, and often wondered why… GMy smile remains though I'm thinking pains tChe averagGe passerby B5 Well they’ll Emsink like stones into their homes away from teeth like mine.
Whoo!!
