RICH GIRL
(richards/augie march)
Transcribed by Tim Byron <tpb04@uow.edu.au>
____________________
[Rich Girl uses the same guitar tuning as The Moth Ball
- EADABE. To
get this tuning you need to get your G-string (put a
bad joke of your
choice here) and tune it up two semi-tones, so instead
of playing a G
when you pluck at the string, you play an A. Glenn strums
most of the
way through. I'm mostly sure this tab is accurate, apart
from the
chords in the middle 8 and outro, which are very quiet.
Almost all of
the chords require the same hand positioning, which is
like what you'd
use if you were playing a normal G chord.]

[intro]
4 bars of Gadd2
[verse 1]
Gadd2
Then I asked about your forefathers
F#mb6
Were they murderous too?
Gadd2
You said it hadn't any bearing
F#mb6
Upon the likes of me and you
Bm7
So we buried them to their neckline
Aadd4
And we kicked off all their heads
Gadd2
Funny little questions
F#mb6
That are left better never ever said
[verse 2]
Gadd2
So I asked about your dead mother
F#mb6
Was she beautiful too?
Gadd2
Just a little bit warmer
F#mb6
Than the likes of me and you
Bm7
Well I'm no F. Scott Fitzgerald
Aadd4
But I know a champagne birth
Gadd2
So was she light or heavy handed
F#mb6
When she delivered you your words?
[chorus]
Aadd4
I asked if you were lonely
Cmaj6add2
You said it didn't matter
Fadd2
These are old emotions
F#mb6
We need to bury them and leave them
Gadd2
Move onto something new
Bm7
Aadd4
We need to bury them and leave them
Gadd2
Like I'm leaving you
[verse 3]
Gadd2
So I had to make it anybody out there
F#mb6
Writing songs about shit
Gadd2
Well I know I'm not supposed to be
F#mb6
Serious about it, but I'm serious about it
Bm7
Aadd4
But I don't want to find no backdoor
Gadd2
And I don't want to feel no other's arms
F#mb6
Empty stuff comes better when I'm on my own
Aadd4
And I make it so I'm on my own
[chorus]
Aadd4
You asked me I'f I'm lonely
Cmaj6add2
I guess it doesn't matter
Fadd2
These are old emotions
F#mb6
We need to bury them and leave them...

Gadd2
From the last romantic view
F#mb6
And I go "oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh"
Gadd2
You're the first sign of panic
F#mb6
Then I tremble at the sight of you
Bm7
All the things that fortify me
Aadd4
Are the things that petrify you
Gadd2
So you bury them and leave them
F#mb6
And I dig them up on you
Aadd4
I only asked if you were lonely
Cmaj6add2
And you said it didn't matter
Fadd2
These are old emotions

Need to bury them and leave them

Move onto something new

Leave their bodies in the backyard
