Hello,

On a Friday night, after the clubs are gone, I get to thinking how someone on
one of my mailing lists bemoans the lack of PJ Harvey tabs on the net.  So here
is the first of a few I've currently done:  Sheila-Na-Gig!

Sheila-Na-Gig
By Polly Jane Harvey
(As interpreted by Sean Hennessey)

Chords: F#, A, D, C

Firstly, it opens with this riff:

e----O-----O-------------------------|
b--b3--1-----1vPvO--O--O--O---------|
g-----------------------------2---O--|
d------------------------------------|
a------------------------------------|
E------------------------------------|

In which the b is a slight blues bend (not pitch spec.) and the P is a pull
off.

Then it's:   (first 2 line with out any chords)

I've been trying to show you

Over and over
