Mansun -"being a girl (part 1)"
>From "Six"
Transcription by Ben Hollis
This file is all my own work
(It wasn`t that hard)
Though not essential, using dropped D
tuning will make this easier
Play it all on the two lowest strings
(six strings - pah)
(even non-guitar players can do this -
try putting stickers on your guitar
to show them which frets to use)
It`s all fifth chords and the bassline
is identical
If you`re using Drop D the chords are
G#5 = 6th fret or 666xxx
E5 = 2nd fret or 222xxx
B5 = 9th fret or 999xxx
C#5 = 11th fret or 111xxx
F#5 = 4th fret or 444xxx
Intro + Verse
G#5 E5 B5 C#5 (a few times)
To do the sound of the guitar 'dropping'
in simply start this pattern with a single beat
of C#5
Chorus
C#5
FEEL LIKE ....
E5 G#5
E5 G#5
C#5 E5 F#5
Yeah, oh, ......
G#5
Keyboard Solo
(I may post a guitar version
of this later, if you have the
"Six" single there is a live
version that is on guitar
and easy-ish to work out,
otherwise its a solo; play
what you like)
Verse + Chorus Again
Verse (variation)
G#5 E5 B5 C#5
G#5 E5
Chorus
Stop
(Warning, if your band plays this
and you have a girl singer, it may
end up sounding like a Shania
Twain song)
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MANSUN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
