Tabbed by: Mr.Ed
This based off of the you tube video for this song.
Bear in mind that these are the base chords, and that there are 3 guitars in the
video playing. I have tabbed Rich Robinson s work, he adds a tickle and flavor to
every chord. Beautiful and soulful.
Intro:
Verse:
Say a word for Jimmy Brown
He ain t got nothing at all
Not the shirt right off his back
He ain t got nothing at all
And say a word for Ginger Brown
Walks with his head down to the ground
Took the shoes right off his feet
And threw the poor boy right into the street
And this is what he said
Chorus:
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
And say a word for Polly May
She can t tell the night from the day
They threw her out into the street
But just like a cat she landed on her feet
And say a word for Paula Love
She ain t got nothing at all
Cause everyday she falls in love
And every night she falls
And this is what she said
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
1st SOLO
Oh let me hear you!
And say a word for Jimmy Brown
He ain t got nothing at all
They took the shirt right off his back
He ain t got nothing at all
And say a word for Ginger Brown
Walks with his head down to the ground
Took the shoes right off his feet
Threw the poor boy right out into the street
And this is what he said
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
2nd SOLO into 3rd SLIDE SOLO
Oh sweet nothing
She ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
Ain t got nothing at all
Oh sweet nothing
She ain t got nothing at all
