• Song:

    My Friend Will Be Me

  • Artist:

    Of Montreal

  • Album:

    The Gay Parade

Few words. This should be totally correct. The other tab
of this song has a few mistakes. The C#m/D is weird. 
I dont know why Kevin Barnes placed that chord in the
song. On the Bb7, you barr the chord, but you make sure
your pinky is on the 9th fret of the B string. The C#m/D
is the same as a C#m but the root is up one step.
Enjoy.

 Someone to steal me from this sadness

 Who'd run her fingers through my hair and kiss me

One who'd help me to stop disguising my feelings
Bb7
I wish I knew a girl 
who'd keep me from silencing
my heart's voice
