MAGPIE - Patrick Wolf
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: RainbowBassist
Feel free to make any comment/suggestions- as this song is originally for piano, I
tried my best to make it sort of interchangeable with the guitar without working
too much harder than needed.
Tuning: Standard, with Capo on 1st fret
PLAY EVERYTHING IN RESPECT TO THE CAPO ON THE 1ST FRET
G7 35x46x
Amsus4 x02240
Also, use G barred on the 3rd fret
Intro: Strum these chords once (this song sounds even better when fingerpicked)
F | G7 | Am | Am
F | G | Am | Am
Arpeggiating the first four notes of the chords will make it sound like the piano: e.g.
Play twice under violin scale:
e|--------------------------------|------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------|------------------------------------| G|-------2-------2-------2------2-|-------0------0------0------0-----o-| D|-----3-------3-------3------3---|-----3------3------3------3-------o-| A|---3-------3-------3------3-----|---3------3------3------3-----------| E|-1-------1-------1------1-------|-1------1------1------1-------------|
[F]Magpie, was[Dm] it you who stole the wedding ring? [Am]

[Am]There?s No Name For Us
But Still We Sing [F]
F | G | Amsus4 | Am
Oooooohh? etc.
F | Dm | Amsus4 | Am |
And still we sing,
[F]Little boy, little boy, [G]
Lost and blue, [Am]
[F]Listen now, let me tell you what to do, [G] [Dm]
[F]You can run on, run along or home [Dm]
Between the knees of her, [Am]
All among her bracken and her ferns, [F]
And the boy will [G]have a name. [Am]
And We Will Sing?
