Song: More fool me
Artist: Genesis
Composers: Phil Collins and Mike Rutherford
(but attributed on the album to the whole band)
Album: Selling England by the pound
Tabbed by: DJ
The song sounds to be played on a couple of 12 string
guitars which are not quite in tune with each other.
They're not in standard pitch either, but mid-way
between pitches, and in an open E tuning.
The tab is my version in standard tuning, these chord
voicings will not sound precisely as the open tuning
ones do but are pretty darn close.
In a live version from 'Genesis Archive 1967-75'
they perform it a semi-tone up from the original key,
in the key of B. Use a Capo at 4th fret for that one,
and also a chromatic tuner to fine-tune up all the
strings sharp by approx. + 25cents above standard.
ORIGINAL STUDIO VERSION:
In the approx. key of Bb To match this pitch,
use a chromatic tuner, and fine-tune all the strings
sharp by approx. +30 cents
CAPO: 3rd fret
(Will then sound in the approx. key of Bb)

[Verse 1]
G Dsus2/F# Here am I... Em7 Who while away the mornings since you've gone, Am Em Too long have I lay alone, D7sus4 D7 Not knowing which way to turn
[Verse 2]
G Dsus2/F# And there you are... N.C. Em7 N.C. ...Quite sure you were right, um-um, mm, Am Em Knowing, full well, D7sus4 D7 That I'd be the first one to go down
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And you'd be the one who was laughing, Dm7 C Ex - cept when things weren't going your way, Cmaj7 And then the lady would say... Bm7 Em7 Am Am7 D That she'd had e - nough wandering around on her own
[Verse 3]
N.C. G Dsus2/F# The day you left... N.C. Em7 N.C. Well, I think you knew you'd not be back, um-um, mm, Am Em Well, at least it would seem that way, B7sus4 B7 Because you never said good - bye
[Bridge]
Em7 Em6 But, when it comes 'round to you and me, Cmaj7 G N.C. I'm sure it will work out al - right
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 Cmaj7 And you'd be the one who was laughing, Dm7 C And giving me something I don't need, Cmaj7 And, you know, I'd always hold you, Bm7 Em7 B7sus4 B7 And keep you warm ...oh, ...more fool me
[Coda]
Em7 Em6 Ah, but when it comes 'round to you and me, Cmaj7 Em7 Em6 I ask myself, 'Do I really believe in your love?' N.C. Cmaj7 G Umm, yes, I'm sure it will work out al - right

For the GUITAR chord box diagrams to match my
suggested choices you need to manually select the
following choice of options by clicking on the
forward/backward arrows below ten of the diagrams.
All the other chord boxes should be the default
first option and don't need any reselecting.
As long as you are logged into your account,
these choices will be saved automatically for every
time you view this tab
F6 F B7sus4 Am7 D5
<2 of 28> <2 of 16> <2 of 20> <3 of 46> <8 of 12>
G Dsus2/F# Em7 Bm7 Em6
<2 of 27> <3 of 13> <6 of 49> <2 of 31> <2 of 50>
There are two inversions of F6 in my tab,
(differentiated by an asterisk in my chord legend)
but unfortunately there is no facility to save both
variations as chord boxes, so you will have to choose
which one to display.
