INTRO

I'm doing a tutorial for a

B's wing, very well known by

Kristy Myhr, covered by many others too.

The capo is on the 1st for a capo.

Chords are G,

C, E minor,

A minor, D.

I'll use a little strum pattern for this one.

It's down, up, down, up, down, up, down, up, down,

up, down, up.

Okay.

VERSE

Starting on the

G, we'll do a little intro.

I'll go through it nice and slowly.

and call out the chords as best I can, and try not to miss any, but

I'll do it slow enough that you can still see what my left hand's doing here playing the guitar chords, all right?

So, third in the

G, a little intro.

VERSE

I was 18 when I came to town, they called

it the summer of love.

Born and baby, born and flags the

D against the

C, G.

I took a job at the steam and

Made down in

Couchman Street Fell in love with a laundry girl that was

D next to

C

She ran her zig-zag around her face in the look of half surprise

Like a fox caught in the headlights that was

D in her

CG She said to me, can't you see

I'm not the factory kind

You don't get me

out of your

D.C.

I lose me mind.

CHORUS

E minor.

She was a rare thing.

Fine as a

G's wing.

E minor.

So fine a breath of

D might blow her a

C.

She was an

E minor child.

She was G-Y.

E minor.

So long there's no

D in love,

I'll C.

VERSE

A minor.

I wouldn't want a

D, other C.

VERSE

Gee, we bussed around the market towns

Picking the food in

Kent

We couldn't tinker pots and pans

We'd be wherever we see

Gee, we were camping down in

Gower The work was mighty good

We wouldn't wait for harvest

Dee, we see

VERSE

And Gee said to her, we'll settle down

We'll get a few acres dug with the fire burning in the hearth and the

D on the

C E minor he said oh man you foolish man

D sounds like

G to

C he might be lord of half the world but not only as

CHORUS

well so it's just oh man

E minor foolish man surely it sounds like hell you might

be lord of

G Half the world, no

D, not on me as well.

CHORUS

Let's see.

She was a rare thing.

E minor.

She was a cheese wing.

E minor.

So fine a breath of

D might blow her a

C.

E minor.

She was a lost child.

She was G-wide.

E minor.

So long there's no

Christ in love,

I'd stay.

Let's see.

A minor, D,

C.

You wouldn't want me any other way.

VERSE

The G.

We would drink more in those days.

Her temperature's raised a pitch.

Like a four on the way.

She took the rambler's edge.

D-K-C.

VERSE

Last, and I make me want a

G.

Last I heard she was livin' rough.

Back in the derby beat.

A bottle of white horsin'

in her pockets.

And a D at her seat.

They say that she got married once

to a man called

Romany Brown

Even the gypsy caravan was

D like settled in

C

VERSE

They say her rose is faded

E to D

Roof weather and booze with a

G And then come to

C G D

I'll play that a little bit again, sorry

They say that her rose is faded

Roof weather and hard booze

And I'll go

E minor, D, then

G.

VERSE

They say heroes have paid, rough

weather and hard boosts.

Maybe that's the cheap price

you pay for change and you refuse.

CHORUS

So I'll find if a

D can see, she was a rare thing.

Find a Zip, even the

G.

E minor.

Miss her more than

ever words can say.

CHORUS

Let's see.

E minor.

I could just taste all of her genus.

I could hold

E minor in me arms today.

A minor.

You wouldn't want her any other way.

OUTRO

And that's really the song.

I'll go through it fully here on on my own here at proper pace and hopefully

you guys can play along.

Hopefully that helped you.

So here we go.

VERSE

I was 18 when I came to town, they called

it the summer of love.

Burning baby, burning flies, the house against the door.

I took a job at the steamer, found a car on the street.

Fell in love with a laundry girl who was working next to me.

Around her jacquard, round her face, she looked up in half-surprise, and picked up thoughts

of carbonated lice, there was animal in her eye.

She said to me, can't you see

I'm not the factory kind?

If you could get me out of here,

I'd lose me mind.

CHORUS

She was a rare thing, fine as a bee

wing, so fine a breath of wind might blow her away.

She was a lost child,

She was running wild

So long as no price and love I say

He wouldn't want me any other way

VERSE

We bussed around the market town

Puttin' down in

Kent We couldn't pick the putts and pans

And neither ever we went

We were campin' down in

Gower The work was mighty good

She couldn't wait for the harves I thought we should.

I said to her, we'll settle down, we'll get a few acres down.

With the fire burning in the hearth and the babies on the rock.

I said, oh man, you foolish man, surely it sounds like hell.

You might be

Lord of half the world, you're not long me as well.

CHORUS

She was a rare thing.

Fine as a bee's wing, so fine a breath of wind might blow her away.

She was a lost child, she was runnin' wild

So long as there's no price in love I stay

You wouldn't want me any other way

VERSE

We were drinkin' more nosies of temperates to base

Like a four-liter on the way she took the ramblin' bitch

Last night hers she livin' rough, down on the derby beach

But a bottle of white horse in her pocket, a wolf pound out her feet.

They say she couldn't marry once to a man called

Romany Brown.

A gypsy caravan was like, that was like settling down.

VERSE

They say her roses faded, weather

and the booze made.

Sorry.

They say her roses faded, from weather

and heart booze.

Maybe that's the price you pay for

Jane the Jeweler.

CHORUS

She was a rare thing.

Fine as a bee thing.

I miss her more than ever worse can say.

I could just taste all of her whiteness now.

I could hold her in me arm today.

Couldn't want her any other way.

OUTRO

Something like that, guys.

I'm no Christina

Muir, but sure, that'll get us through.

Okay, so hopefully you guys enjoyed that.

Work on it, take your time, just practice it nice and slowly at the start.

And it just takes time getting in the way of the rhythm.

Listen to Christina

Muir's version or many other versions if you wish and let it just sink in, remember the words, remember the way it's sang and good luck with it.

If you've any more help needed there, let me know and

I'll do my best to help you.

Good luck guys and thanks for your support.

Speak again soon.
