| [NOTES]
|
| • Much of the credit for this goes to ActuallyCurtis. I've transposed and expanded upon his tab.
| • There are several recorded versions of this song:
| 1) The Original Off-Broadway cast recording
| 2) The Movie Soundtrack version
| 3) The Broadway cast recording (with Neil Patrick Harris)
| 4) ...as well as who knows how many cover versions.
|
| • The "Oh baby, something's crossed my mind..." interlude is only heard on The Original Off-Broadway
| recording.
|
| • HEAD'S UP: Hedwig songs on UltimateGuitar seem to be ending up in at least three different places...
| 1) Under Misc Sountrack Hedwig And The Angry Inch (which is correct by UltimateGuitar standards)
| 2) Stephen Trask (which is also correct, as Trask holds the songwriting credits)
| 3) And finally, under the name of Stephen's collaborator and the original Hedwig: John Cameron Mitchell.
|
| • I would describe this song as beginning with a country shuffle and building almost into a rock anthem.
| And then it brings it all back home with a twangy little country lick at the end. Keep this in mind, kids.
| Don't simply stick to one strumming pattern and tell yourself that you've 'learned' the song! :)
