Petrov Yelyena and Me Flight of the Conchords
Petrov Yelyena and Me
Flight of the Conchords
This is only meant to get you started
This is a great song to play around other people, while FoTC has become quite popular,
song remains mostly unknown. That being said there are a few things to know before
to learn this song:
Unlike most FoTC songs, this is a waltz and is played in 3/3 time signature, for those
of what that means think of every Chord as divided into 3 parts. 1st is the Bass, and 2nd
3rd are the rhythm, it sounds much better if you play the bass once, and the rhythm 4
for the sake of simplicity i have tabbed out only 2 beats of the rhythm.

Me
This repeats one more time for the second verse.
Afterwards there's a dialogue between "Me" and Petrov, this is all played repeating over:
[A]
|---------|---------| |-----5--5|-----5--5| |-----6--6|-----6--6| |-----7--7|-----7--7| |-----7--7|-----7--7| |--5------|--0------|
When the dialogue is over everything is shifted up one fret for the next verse which is
F and D#, the fashion that this is played in is the same as before
[A#]
|---------|---------| |-----6--6|-----6--6| |-----7--7|-----7--7| |-----8--8|-----8--8| |-----8--8|-----8--8| |--6------|--0------|

|---------|---------| |-----8--8|-----8--8| |-----8--8|-----8--8| |-----8--8|-----8--8| |--6--6--6|-----6--6| |---------|--6------|
the next verse is shifted up yet again
For the creepy Oooooo Ooooo part it repeats B and changes to F

after this verse it slows down and goes back to the original chords:
