FRACTION OF A MAN - Shawn Mullins
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Matt Faulkner
Email: [email protected]
Tuning: EADGBe Capo 2
He plays different intros on each version of this song. I usually
just play G - C - G-D - G or something like that. As long as
it s in the key, it ll sound fine...
Fraction of a Man Capo 2
Now my old friend Harry
Never slowed down to marry
He s in sales, he s gone most of the year
He smiles through all his lies
With dollar signs in his eyes
Riff 1 ( )
And he orders himself another beer
Now Harry, he s a dreamer
A scholar and a schemer
But he ll be there for you
When push comes to shove
His mama called him Harold
And she was one of only two women
Riff 2 ( )
That Harry ever loved
The other was a waitress
In Cave Creek, Arizona
That broke his heart
And tangled up his mind
My old friend Harry
Lookin kinda scary
Riff 3 ( )
Wonders if he s runnin out of time
Now Biloxi s got a sadness
Like a dark day in December
That Harry recognizes
In all forgotten southern towns
Thumbin through the phonebook
For a name he can t remember
Lookin desperate, like a junkie
Waitin for a fix to come around
Sittin playing Blackjack
With a hooker and a tourist
And a one-eyed dealer winning every hand
Harry sips Black Label
Slumps down at the table
Riff 3 ()
Feelin like a fraction of a man
() ()
Feelin like a fraction of a man
He doesn t play these on Honeydew, but he puts them in on his live album.
