Vengeance Is Sleeping

VENGEANCE IS SLEEPING - Neko Case Note: I had to work out how to play this live without much messing about so it’s not accurate to the record - to get that you’ll have to detune your low E string to D and finger position accordingly! (For clues there’s a video on youtube where someone’s accidentally just filmed the guitarist: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-FEYxc14ZUQ) D=xx0232 D6=xx0202 Em=0x2000 Bb=x10330 Gm=3x0330 (E)=0x0330 D2=x54030 E=022100 Db5=xx0132 Capo 2nd G----0---0---0----0---0---0-----0---0---0--| D--4---2---0----4---2---0------------------| ------------------------------------------| -----------------------------5---4---2----| / / / / / / / / /Em (x3) / / / / / / / () I DID NOT KNOW WHAT A BRUTE I WAS I DIPPED MY CIGARETTE AND RODE THE BUS VENGEANCE BUILT ME HASTILY AND I DRAGGED THE CLANGING NOTION I WAS NOBODY NOBODY...
