Chords

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- from Disney's Oliver & Co. soundtrack Tabbed by: Cody Email: [email protected] Tuning:EADGBe This tab isn't of the entire song. Specifically I left out the "They love me at the they adore me at the Ritz" because it's somewhat un-melodic and I couldn't really figure it out. I wrote these tabs with timing in mind. I put the chords over the word it should be played on. In some cases it's over the part of the word it should be played. example; F starts on 'lancey' in 'Delancey'. Here are the chords I use: E A D G B E G 3-5-5-4-3-3-| F 1-3-3-2-1-1-| Eb x-6-8-8-8-6-| A# 6-8-8-7-6-6-| D x-5-7-7-7-5-| Eb7 x-6-8-6-8-6-| Em 0-2-2-0-0-0-| D* x-0-0-2-3-2-| C x-3-2-0-1-0-|
