There She Goes, My Beautiful World Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
"There She Goes, My Beautiful World"
Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
Abattoir Blues/The Lyre of Orpheus
2004
This is a pretty easy song, you just go back and forth from Cm and F during all the
verse and bridge parts.
The chorus is the only part that is different, where you play (C G Am F G).
But since I'm anal about this kinda thing, I'll put it out clearly here.
Cm* Cm
e|--x-----3--| B|--x-----4--| G|--0-----5--| D|--1-----5--| A|--3-----3--| E|--x-----3--|
x = don't play these strings
-Using my Cm* chord is optional, but it adds some nice, tense subtlety to the verses I
like to use it in.
-I'll put the Capo III chords at the bottom of the tab
