Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Capo: 6

The other versions overlooked a simple chord change in the finger picking in the song for the 4th and 5th
chords. I’m using a different capo to adjust for that. The hardest part is actually the first key change. If
you don’t have a cutaway guitar, it may be difficult to play the D#.

SPOKENWORD

Bm7
Hey girl I’ve been standing at the back not doing m
F#m7
uch for this song
But that’s because my talents are quite limited
Bm7
but that don’t mean that I love you any less
In fact
F#m7
it means the opposite (Im just showing off my v
Bm7
oice) its just it’s so hard for me to find the words
To really expr
F#m7
ess the way that I feel about you girl
Especially when I have to w
Bm7
orry about fitting those words to music
And there’s some kind of rhyme str
F#m7
ucture involved (Meaningless Whisper)
Bm7
I know it’s lazy song writing but I don’t care
Cause I sl
F#m7
eep on a big pile of money at night
Bm7
Girl You might think it’s weird, girl
That three guys are singing about just
F#m7
one girl, girl
But let me tell you something, girl,
Bm7
it’s not weird at all
In fact, girl, It’s an industry standard
F#m7
and it happens all the time (Happens all the t
