Man-Sized by PJ Harvey
Man-Sized
This one is dead simple, with the same 3 chords running overandover again in a
weird time signature, which just changes from 6/8 to 3/8.
The chords are: F#, E, A
And the counting goes: (play when the chord is under the count the x's mean
muted scratches)
1- 2- 3- 4- 5- 6 1- 2- 3- 4- 5- 6 1- 2 -3- 4- 5- 6 1- 2- 3- 4
F# F# x F# F# x F# F# x F# F# x E E x E E x A A A x
Pretty much it, with some lyrics:
(riff x4, then hold chords until written, same pattern as above)
F#
I'm coming up man-sized
E A - A - A
Skinned alive
x F#
I want to get my
E
Birth-right A - A - A
Man-sized
I'm heading on
I (da-da-da, I can't remember this line)
Got my leather boots on
Got my girl
She's a wow
I take my turn
And take a bow
Etcetera...
