• Song:

    There She Goes My Beautiful World

  • Artist:

    Nick Cave (and The Bad Seeds)

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
