Tau / A song about a circle constant, written and sung by Victoria "Vi" Hart - http://vihart.com/ Capo on 5th fret song uses variations of normal chords, as I have a limited "chord vocabulary" they will be listed as numbers above the song. chord "1" - 202220 - use thumb chord "2" - 222100 - use thumb chord "3" - 422100 - awkward, but that is what is played chord "4" - 022102 chord "5" - 202100 - use thumb they're not perfect, but that's as close as I could get them with my fingers - verse 1 E B when you want to make a circle, how is it done? A E Well you probably will start, with the radius 1 E B Use a compass or a string, use a paper or the ground A B and if the radius is 1, how far did you go around? - Chorus 1 A 1 A It's Tau! six point two eight, yeah! E 1 E 1 E A it's Tau, six point two eight three one eight E 2 3 4 E B E five three oh seven, one seven nine five eight - Verse 2 E 4 If you pick a certain distance, and you pick a certain spot A E and you put the two together, then what have you got? E 4 it makes a very special shape, and now you are the inventor, A if you pick all of the points a certain distance from your center, 4 E A and you got a great collection, and it is a great invention, E 4 E and it makes a lovely circle, well depending on dimension, E E E that makes, one, two, three E and there's four and even more. [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/v/vi-hart/346808.html ] 4 but for a circle, and other circles, if you take the distance and compare. - Chorus 2 A 1 A It's Tau! six point two eight, yeah!

A the one that's sometimes pronounced "pee".

E 4 E you get further from the truth when we obscure what we say E E E and know it now makes sense. E when it's beautiful and pure 4 but please don't make it ugly with your bad notation and awful curriculum. - Chorus 2 A 1 A Use Tau! six point two eight, yeah!
