Capo VI
This is a really simple song to play, the first off Anais' album
"Young Man in America". It only uses two chords throughout:
Asus2 (002200), and a version of Cmaj7 (332000).
Anais plays the first chord with her second and third fingers,
so when the chord changes the fourth and fifth fingers move up
easily to the top two strings. Listen to the song for the rhythm
and strumming.
Asus2 Oh mother shelter Cmaj7 A mother is a shelterer Asus2 Oh mother shelter Cmaj7 Asus2 Mother shel-ter us Cmaj7 From the wild winds howling Asus2 Cmaj7 Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-oooh-oooh (x4) Asus2 Oh father shepherd Cmaj7 A father is a shepherder Asus2 Oh father shepherd Cmaj7 Asus2 Father shep-herd us Cmaj7 From the wild wolves howling Asus2 Cmaj7 Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-oooh-oooh (x4) Asus2 Your cities are a wilderland Cmaj7 Look upon your children Asus2 Your cities are a wilderland Cmaj7 Look upon your, look upon Asus2 Your highways are a wilderland Cmaj7 Look upon your children Asus2 Your highways are a wilderland Cmaj7 Look upon your, look upon Asus2 Look upon your children Cmaj7 Wandering in the wilderland Asus2 Look upon your children Cmaj7 Asus2 Wandering in the woods Singing Cmaj7 Oooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-oooh-oooh-oooh (x9)
This song moves beautifully straight into the second song
off the album, the title track "Young Man in America".
Still trying to figure out the tabs for the whole song,
so it will hopefully follow.
Hope this is accurate and you enjoy :)
