Alanis Morissette - Orchid chords
Highlighted Show chord diagrams
Okay, so this is the first song I've tabbed myself and I fear the possibility thatit may turn out to be an epic failure as far as tabs are concerned. I really love this absolutely beautiful and brilliant song so much. I'm really just a singer, but I like to dabble in acoustic guitar to have something to sing over. I've been searching for this song for ages and I haven't been able to find a live video performance or a written tab for it. So in my desperation, I resorted to using my ear, hehe. Corrections,criticisms and/or advice on tabbing is highly encouraged, though I would appreciate politeness! :-D This is my first time after all! Transcribed by: Kate - Luaeria@yahoo.com Artist: Alanis Morissette Album: Flavours of Entanglement Song: Orchid Notes: Standard tuning, w/0 capo. (Intro) G Em (x2) (Verse 1) G Em Me and my helmet G Em Such an unconventional kid G Em All intense and kinetic Am D At best, tolerated from afar (Verse 2) G Em Not yet arrested G Em and by that, I mean betrothed G Em Though at start, I am duly courted Am D I've just not been trusted with altars (Chorus 1) G Em I'm a sweet piece of work G Em Well intentioned, yet disturbed Am C Wrongly labeled and underfed Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid G Em (x2) .......(Interlude).......... (Verse 3) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/a/alanis-morissette/221130.html ] G Em My friends as they weigh in G Em Get understandably protective G Em They have a hard time being objective Am D So inside we cancel each other out (Chorus 2) G Em I'm a sweet piece of work G Em Well intentioned, and unnerved Am C Enabled and misunderstood Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid (Middle Eight) G Bm You've brought water to me G Bm Making sure my bloom rebounds G Bm You know best of what my special care allows... (Verse 3) G Em So I've lived in my blind spot G Em Thought myself usual when I'm not G Em In your garden is a nice spot Am D As long as it is brave and where you are (Chorus 3) G Em For this sweet piece of work G Em High maintenance and deserted Am C I've been different and deserving Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid (Chorus 4) G Em Sweet piece of work G Em Overwhelmed, unobserved Am C I've been bowed down to but so misread Am D Treated like a rose as an Orchid (Ending) G Em (play to fade or end on G...) (Ad Lib vocal embellishments to fade or til final G...) Well, that's all folks. Please let me know if you have any feedback or corrections. I can be reached at Luaeria@yahoo.com Take care! Kate  |
