Ron Sexsmith – Strawberry Blonde tab
Chords:
This is my first tab and I wanna give a try on figuring out the chords for The Subways's and lovely tune Strawberry Blonde (my fav track on their album "All or Nothing"). In fact the chords are a bit wrong, because there are variation chords, but I used kinda chords, so even amateurs are able to play along with the CD. Maybe I do the "original" version too one day... Tuning: standard Capo: no Chords used: ------------ C* (032030) C (032010) Em7 (022003) Em/D(x20032) B7 (021200) G#m (466444) C#m (x46654) F# (244322) B (799877) C#* (x466xx) D#* (x688xx) E* (x799xx) F#* (244xxx) D* (xx0235) Intro: C*, C*, C, C, Em7, Em7, Em/D, Em/D C* C Em Em/D You're the matador and I'm the bull C* C Em Em/D You're the brass keyhole I fit into C* C Em Em/D You're the wind and I am the weathervane C* C Em Em/D You're the strawberry blonde and I'm the grey B7 Em Em/D You're the light and I am the firefly B7 you're the star and I am the blackened sky 2x G#m, C#m, F#, B G#m C#m F# B G#m C#m F# B Tell me, yeah sing this song for my lonely soul G#m C#m F# B G#m C#m F# B Tell me you sing your song for my lonely soul 2x F#Guitar 1: C*, C*, C, C, Em7, Em7, Em/D, Em/DGuitar 2 is playing the following solo:E |-7---7---7---7---5---5---5---5---3---3---3---3---2---2---------|B |---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---8---5---5---5---5---5---5-3-5-0-|G |---------------------------------------------------------------|D |---------------------------------------------------------------|A |---------------------------------------------------------------|E |---------------------------------------------------------------| |<<<------riff part one------>>>||<<<-----riff part two------>>>|In the second verse, guitar's always playing riff part two where Em and Em/D are played.
