• 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.

   C5 *   C5
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

Intro: C5 *  F5  C5 *  F5

C5 *        F5              C5 *
 The wintergreen, the juniper
             F5              C5 *
The cornflower and the chicory
        F5                 C5 *
All the words you said to me
        F5              C5
Still vibrating in the air
             F5                  C5
The elm , the ash and the linden tree
             F5               C5
The dark and deep, enchanted sea
              F5                    C5
The trembling moon and the stars unfurled
          F5                  C5
There she goes, my beautiful world

C5                             G5

There she goes, my beautiful world

There she goes, my beautiful world
          G5     C5   F5   C5   F5
