"There She Goes, My Beautiful World"
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus
2004

This is a pretty easy song, you just go back and forth from Cm and F during all the 
verse and bridge parts.
The chorus is the only part that is different, where you play [C  G  Am  F G].
But since I'm anal about this kinda thing, I'll put it out clearly here.

Cm*   Cm
e|--x-----3--|
B|--x-----4--|
G|--0-----5--|
D|--1-----5--|
A|--3-----3--|
E|--x-----3--|

x = don't play these strings

-Using my Cm* chord is optional, but it adds some nice, tense subtlety to the verses I 
like to use it in.
-I'll put the Capo III chords at the bottom of the tab
