Hey OLGA
Could you please replace my original /h/Boo_Hewerdine/59_Yards.tab with
this one
thanks
Nic
Nic.Boulton@cw.mercury.co.uk
ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Here's a change from Richard B, in D major :
I think the chords are basically just A major, G and D.
The verse being played with the first finger for the A chord and fingers
three and four (mainly 3) being added as appropriate, G and D chords used
in the middle and at the end of each line.
e:---|---|---|---|---|
B:---|-1-|---|---|---|
G:---|-1-|---|---|---|
D:---|-1-|---|(3)|(4)|
A:---|---|---|---|---|
E:---|---|---|---|---|
The chorus being G, D and A.

59 Yards (Boo Hewerdine)
------------------------
This is on Boo Hewerdine's second album, Ignorance. It's played in Ab
(capo at 1), live and on the album. All the following is written as
though played in G (at the nut), so if you're playing with a capo at the
first fret, remember to play all the TAB sections one fret higher than
written here.

59 yards from your house to my house 59 yards away
59 yards from your house to my house 59 yards away

There's a white car waiting to take me, waiting tt me, waiting to take

Chord fingerings:

Strumming in the verse is generally fast strumming of the bass strings,
quickly damped with the palm of the right hand (there's probably one of
those cute little italian words to describe this), except the DC at the
end of each line which is the full chord. Have a listen to the album.
Bend notation :
x(y) fretted at x, pre-bent upto y, pick and hold
/
x(y) fretted at x, pick and bend one half-step upto y
0.5
/
X fretted at X, pick and bend up half a half-step (one quarter step?)
x(y)x fretted at x, pre-bent (to y), pick and release bend back down to x
h is a hammer on
p is a pull-off
Here's the break written out in the key of Ab (i.e. this is exactly what
you play if you're using a capo at the first fret).

Do you ever get the feeling that you're living someone else's life?
B
and all the time you thought that you were happy and didn't think twice
E
The winter that we spent together got so cold I thought we'd die
BA
and the dress you wore at Easter that made me cry
[Chorus]:

I'll meet you at the world's end, two saints walking arm in arm
E
young again
E
The smoke from burning bridges has been stinging in our eyes for years
B
so we never learn to see the good that stares us in the face
E
with the sound of false alarm bells still ringing in our ears
BA
so all the time we never knew, there is no better place
[Chorus]
[Bridge] :
GE
So we share a secret place
GE
I never knew it meant that much to you
G^ EA place where we begin and end
BBA
see, I never knew, I never knew
