This song is by Hank Green of the vlogbrothers. Hank explains how to play here
but I figured I would type it up for people who need to read it. If you want to hear the
of the song I followed to do this (it's slightly different from the original in lyrics,
etc.), visit this link:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v1iymaxV6Osk&pCEDC77FCC40730A4&playnext1&index21.
Capo 2nd fret
Standard tuning
Be aware of the strumming pattern. Hank explains in the first video I linked to, but
is a quick explanation (for the intro):
G down
DD up down
CC up up
GG down up
Also, the chords followed by ! (the only chords followed by that are a few C's)
they are staccatos.
Without further ado, enjoy "Book Eight" from So Jokes!
Intro: GDDCCGG
[GDDCCDD]
I kn[G]ow I'm n[D]ot the [C]only [G]one
[G]Who wants t[D]o know more ab[C]out Harry's s[G]ons
[G]I really do thin[D]k there's an un[C]written s[D]tory
[G]And I think[D] it's time to put fi[C]ngers to k[G]eys
[GDDCCGG]
[G]A lot of p[D]eople wa[C]nt to know m[G]ore
[G]About Grindlew[D]ald and D[C]umbledo[G]re
[G]I really do[D] think they [C]both batted l[D]efty
[G]And I think [D]that there's probably a g[C]ood story[G] there
[D]For Book Eight
I wa[G]nt a book eig[C]ht
[C]I want a book eig[D]ht
[G]And I want JK R[D]owling to say that
C!
The epilogue was crap
Caus[C]e we all know it was crap and
[G]I want JK R[D]owling to say
C!
That Voldemort had a son
C!
And the story's just begun
[G]And I want JK Rowli[D]ng to say[C]
That she's writing book [G]8
[GDDCCGG]
[GDDCCDD]
[G]A lot of peo[D]ple I know wa[C]nt to hear the t[G]ale
[G]Of [D]the my[C]sterious v[G]eil
[G]I really do think [D]it's a d[C]imensional p[D]ortal
[G]And I thi[D]nk that Si[C]rius is in Mid[G]dle Earth
[GDDCCGG]
[G]And I kn[D]ow I wanna[C] hear the o[G]ne
[G]About Hagrid's d[D]ad and [C]Hagrid's m[G]um
[G]I really do think [D]that that's ne[C]arly imp[D]ossible
[G]And I t[D]hink there's[C] probably a good [G]story there
[D]For Book Eight
I wa[G]nt a book ei[C]ght
[C]I want a book ei[D]ght
[G]And I want JK Ro[D]wling to say that
C!
The epilogue was crap
caus[C]e we all know it was crap and
[G]I want JK R[D]owling to say
C!
That Voldemort had a son
C!
And the story's just begun
[G]And I want JK [D]Rowling to say[C]
That she's writing book [G]eight
[DCG]
She could call it Ha[D]rry P[C]otter a[G]nd the Pillar of Storge
Or Har[D]ry [C]Po[G]tter and the (whatever Hank wants here) x4
[D]Harr[C]y Pot[G]ter
[D]Har[C]ry Pot[G]ter
And I wan[C]t a book eigh[G]t
[C]I want a book eigh[G]t
Oh Har[D]ry P[C]otter[G]
Good luck and DFTBA.
