NOTATION FOR BITS WHICH ARE PERHAPS A BIT TRICKIER:


-Bm rhyhthm , repeat through much of the verse:

     Bm
e |   | ----------------- |   | 
b | o | -----7-7-----7-7- | o | 
g |   | -----7-7-----7-7- |   | 
d |   | -----0-0-----0-0- |   | 
a | o | ---------5------- | o | 
e |   | -7--------------- |   | 


-( G , F#m , A ) verse riff (w/Bm lead in & out):

    Bm              G   F#m A      Bm
e |  | ---------------------------- |   | ----------------- |   | 
b |  | -----7-7-------------------- | o | -----7-7-----7-7- | o | 
g |  | -----7-7-------------------- |   | -----7-7-----7-7- |   | 
d |  | -----0-0-------------------- |   | -----0-0-----0-0- |   | 
a |  | ---------5---0---2~~~0~~~4~~ | o | ---------5------- | o | 
e |  | -7---------------3~~~2~~~5~~ |   | -7--------------- |   | 
                                "...ghost gone."


-use BARRE CHORDS for chorus section,
-the same rhythm as the verse, then the 'chorus riff':

    G  F#m  A   Bm     G
e |  | ---------------- |   | ----------------- |   | 
b |  | ---------------- | o | -----3-3-----3-3- | o | 
g |  | ---------------- |   | -----4-4-----4-4- |   | 
d |  | ---------------- |   | -----5-5-----5-5- |   | 
a |  | -2~~~0~~~4~~~5~~ | o | ---------5------- | o | 
e |  | -3~~~2~~~5~~~7~~ |   | -3--------------- |   | 
   "mud-dy  crawling   through"


Verse riff referred to below as ( G , F#m , A ),
Chorus riff notated above the chords as --((chorus riff))--,
this is to make everything clearer,
I hope it works as intended.


----------------------------------------------------------------------


Bm
What do I want with my life now that you're gone?

( G  F#m  A )            Bm
           I want your ghost gone.

Bm
What do I want with this wood now that it's sawn?

( G  F#m  A )           Bm
           I want the stump gone,

( G  F#m  A )                Bm
           and the land it grew on.


         A                   G             A
Oh black lagoon, you have my shoe, so I go shoeless.

   --((chorus riff))--
     G   F#m  A   Bm   G                   Bm
I go mud-dy   crawling through.


Bm
What do I want with my home now that I'm gone?

( G  F#m  A )           Bm
           I want the shades drawn,

( G  F#m  A )            Bm
           and the overgrown lawn.

Bm
I would gladly abandon a limb in the trap's jaw,

( G  F#m  A )                  Bm
           Just as long as I crawl on,

( G  F#m  A )                   Bm
           with no trapper to call on.


             A                 G
Thorough and true, by stem and root,

                  --((chorus riff))--
       A            G  F#m   A   Bm   G
I know no-one now.     Now   I   say "who?"
