Subject: CRD: Gypsy Girl by Wet Wet Wet
Title: "Gypsy Girl"
Band: "Wet Wet Wet"
Transcription: "Mungo Henning"
I think that the following track by Wet Wet Wet
off their "Picture This" album was an excellent example
of acoustic guitar playing. Hope I heard the words
right: E&OE. I also scrimped on the "la la la" bit :-)
Intro: G C G C
G
Ten years before my time
C
I sang a song to a friend of mine
D G [D* C G]
'bout a girl working for a dime
G
I didn't know that gypsy girl
C
but I knew about her kind of thrill
D G
Her love was cheap and always up for sale
C D Em
ooh picture this, I was alone
D
but when I fell in love
C G
I was alone... ooh with my gypsy girl
[little run: G C G D* C G
The D* is a plain C chord up two frets to make a D. Play it fast
enough and it sounds okay. ]
G
Now a gypsy lady lost her soul
C
and she's so scared of growin' old
D
but words don't age for me
G
they turn to gold
G
Gypsy girl with raven hair
C
holds my open(?) to the air
D G
she's the one that never seems to care....
C D Em
ooh picture this, I not alone
D
but when I sing a song
C G
I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl
with my gypsy girl
la la la la la la, la la la la la la.....
C D Em
ooh picture this, I'm not alone
D
but when I sing your song
C G
I'm not alone... with my gypsy girl
My gypsy girl
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 WET WET WET 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.
