Martha Wainwright ? BMFA (Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole) - Tabbed by Leo Barker
25/02/07
Chords:
D - XX0232 G/D - XX0797 A/D - XX09119 Em9(no 5th) - xx2032-|
G5 - 3x0033 G5(1) - 3X0032 Em9 - 022032 A -x03330---------|
This song isn?t nearly as hard as these chords would make out, but since there are so
poorly tabbed versions out there, I thought I?d throw mine into the mix which is certainly
bit more accurate.
For the D and G/D chords that open the song and are repeated throughout, you need to
the first finger onto the middle G string, listen for the timing.
So you are going from this: xx0032 ...to this: xx232. And then this:
....to this: xx0797.
The only other thing to note is that she alternates between using the G5 and the G5(1)
as I have labelled it above, so just listen for which is used where.
Intro:
[D] [G/D]
[D]Poetry is no place for a heart that's a w[G/D]hore
[D]And I'm young & I'm strong But I feel old[G/D] & tired, overfired.
[D]And I've been poked & stoked, it's all smoke, there's no more[G/D] fire
Only desir[A/D]e
Em9(no 5th)
For you, whoever you are
For you, whoever you [D]are
Second Verse:
[D]You say my time here has been some sort of [G/D]joke
That I've been messing [D]around some sort of incubating pe[G/D]riod
For when I really come [D]around I'm cracking [G5]up
And you have no [Em9]idea
No idea how it f[G5(1)]eels to be on your [D]own
In your own [G5(1)]home with the fucking [D]phone
G5 <---- note not G5(1)
And the mother of gloom
In your bed[D]room
Standing over your [G5(1)]head
With her hand in your [Em9]head, with her hand in your [D]head
I will not [G5]pretend I will not put on a [D]smile
I will not say I'm all [G5]right for you when all I [A]wanted was to be good
To do everything in tr[G5]uth, to do everything in [D]truth
From here on there are no surprises and you can follow the patterns above and just
to match the chords. Any questions or corrections please feel free to get in contact.
