Chords

"Our World" from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas (Paul Williams, songwriter) tabbed by Jim Ferraiolo ([email protected]) This is the version of the song sung by Emmet's mom at the talent contest. If you're looking for the version at the end of the movie where the otters all sing together, it's also available on UG. Just a great song with a positive message, and it never fails to make me cry whenever I hear it. This song has one weird F chord in it, listed below. I have the piano sheet music and I've tried to transpose it as best I could for guitar. The voicings I use are below. If a voicing is not specifically listed, do what you like. Bbmaj7: xx8765 Ebmaj7: x6878x Edim7: x7868x F*: 131x3x Riff 1: This is just a walk down of bass notes on the D string from Ebmaj7 into the Cm7 chord:
