Graceland (The Bible!)

----------------------



This is on 'Random Acts of Kindness' and also 'Walking the Ghost Back Home' by

The Bible! Written by Boo Hewerdine and Tony Shepherd. Unless there's

something wrong with my CD player or guitar tuning (quite possible), the key

seems to be about halfway between G and Ab. Below is written as though played

in G at the nut.

Right hand:

v is a downstroke

^ is an upstroke

Va is slightly arpeggiated downstroke

^a is slightly arpeggiated upstroke

N.C. is no chord



* The section "oo oo oo, all my wanting. .  . waiting. working, etc." is

played as the lowest 4 notes in each chord, played as a slow arpeggio, but

this can sound a bit thin without keyboards underneath it, so strumming this

bit might be better unless you're playing with a band.



H is A hammer-on
