Highlighted Show chord diagrams
Mike's doing some stuff with the bass notes on the Am chord, nothing too fancy just listen for it in the track. Also, the Em7 is more like Cmaj9/B. It's basically a step from C to Am that looks like this: E]-0- B]-1- G]-0- D]-0- A]-2- E]-x- "Shank Hill St." by Shovels and Rope O' Be Joyful Am Am G Buzzing like a locust, vibrating right out of my skin Am F C Em7 Am Pounding on the butcher's wall, somebody come and let me in G There's a black haired woman carrying a rolling pin Am F C Em7 Am C Em7 Am But your man's got a secret but she knows where he been yeah, she knows where he been F G C Am F G Am And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/shovels-and-rope/387419.html ] Am G You see, early in the morning, before the warm wind of the dawn Am F C Em7 Am She saw thin man and a shadow make their way across the lawn Am G There was a rustle, was a razor and the whisper of a prayer Am F C Em7 Am Then the rhythm of the mallet like a heartbeat in the air F G C Am F G Am And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again Am G Am C Am G Am Am G With a handshake like a hammer and a suicide grin Am F C Em7 Am C Em7 Am That wooden door creaked open and the butcher-man let me in, yes like that he let me in Am G But I wasted not a minute, I was on him like a whip Am F C Em7 Am For one last minute he'd feel that hot red drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip, drip F G C Am F G Am And it'll be a long time 'fore the sun shines on Shank Hill Street again Am G Am C Am G Am  |
