Tabbed by: magickmidget


Tuning: Standard; CAPO ON FIRST FRET.

EVERY tab I've seen for this is WRONG. And it's driving me insane.
And so, for real this time: Sheela-Na-Gig by the lovely Polly Jean Harvey.
Chords are all relative to the capo.

Verse (palm muted!):
E       F#       E         F#
Look at these my child-bearing hips

Look at these my ruby red ruby lips
E       F#       E           F#
Look at these my work strong arms and
E             F#     E           F#
You've got to see my bottle full of charm
E        F#  E       F#
I lay it all at your feet

You turn around and say back to me
