Girl On The Wing Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

BmOne wound-Gup pBmunch of intuiGtion, lBmays

 flatG my whole tDake on Eus.

BmYou're the girlG on the wBming of a barGnstormer,

Bmthe tidal rabGbit who cDame of

Eage before her tiBmme.

Bm -> A♯m -> A (rundown)

AWe could have been Gso good-natured if ID'd relented when you iAnsisted,

Bmbut we've been bacGked against all nature's wDalls far too loAng.

BmYou felt abGandoned by me, I recDall the sunshine as yAou were melting

Bmand though the comGedy softens the fDall, they still hear Aus with their

Gears to the wall.

BmI sold aGll myBm evil Gmotives,Bm no iciGcles

 stuck Din my hiEde.

BmI'm through Gwith rBmiddles, I know wGe're lBmittle

 just help Gme feel wDarm

Einside.

 Before we take this Gride and let it slide, into the cracks where fDall and

 winter collide. I suGrrender all my gall in a song of modern loDve.

GRemember you're the one who summoned Dme above any other kiAnd.

G G -> Bm (slide)

First off, I've built on the previous version and filled in some vital missing chords,

changed some wrong ones and amended the lyrics. So the ground work comes courtesy of the

other version.

Now, you can play this with either barre chords or open, it doesn't really matter. I

personally like to play it in barre chords, because in the verse, I like to go Bm, then

slide from the G back up to Bm. It sounds really good, although I don't think the shins

do it that way.

Listen to the song for the timings, how many bars etc, but it's all fairly simple.

If playing open chords, you can quickly hammer on a pinky on the 3rd fret of the B

string at the end of the A chord (making it an asus4)in the pre chorusy section (could have

been so good natured if I'd relented when you insisted (hammer on)) etc. You can hear

this quite clearly in the song, adds a nice touch and makes it sound a little more

interesting on guitar.

The same goes for Barre chords, although then you can just do a slight bend with your

middle finger at the end of the A.
