version 2
Capo on the second fret, standard tuning. I charted out a few of the weirder chords at the bottom.
I pulled the chords out of the piano/vocal selections book and claim no credit for
figuring them out. What I did do was use a capo so that they were easier to play,
arrange the intro for guitar, and figure out a decent plucking pattern. The song's
about intermediate level or a little below--it sounds best if you know the song
well enough to mimic what the orchestra is doing with your plucking pattern, and
the chords are weird, but it's fairly slow and repetitive.
I fingerpick this song. It's supposed to sound "simple and steady, like a music
box", so I wouldn't recommend strumming it.
I play the main riff (intro and the beginning of the verses) like this:
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A Gsus/B Gsus/C Gsus/B G5/A
e||-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------|-----|
B||--3--------3----------3--|--3--------3----------3--|--3--------3----------3--|--3--|
G||--0-----0--0-------0-----|--0-----0--0-------0-----|--0-----0--0-------0-----|--0--|
D||-----0----------0--------|-----0----------0--------|-----0----------0--------|-----|
A||--3--------2-------------|--0--------2-------------|--3--------2-------------|--0--|
E||-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------|-----|
For the chords in the rest of the song I try to follow the orchestra. In general,
I pluck the top three or four strings and the bass note, then follow up by
plucking the notes from the bass up with my thumb. But on certain words like
"sudden heat" I just hit the chord, and in other places like the D after "I'm not
that girl" I add hammerons and whatnot, etc. It's too much work to tab out
everything I do exactly, but for example, I would play "sudden heat/Hearts leap in
a giddy" like this:
D/F# G C/E Em D/F#
e||--2-------3-------------|--0-----------0-----------------2--------|
B||--3-------3-------------|--1-----------0-----------------3--------|
G||--2-------0-------------|--0-----------0--------0--------2------2-|
D||------------------0-----|--------2------------2---------------0---|
A||---------------2--------|-----0-------------2---------------0-----|
E||--2-------3----------3--|--0-----------0-----------------2--------|
sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy...
But you can play it however you want, just my suggestion. So, without further ado,
the chords to "I'm Not that Girl":
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A G5/B
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A...
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A G5/B
Hands touch, eyes meet,
Gsus/C G5/B D/F# G
Sudden silence, sudden heat
C/E Em D/F# C(add9)
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl,
D/F# Bm7 G/B
He could be that boy,
Am7 G Dsus D
but I'm not that girl.
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A G5/B
Don't dream, too far,
Gsus/C G5/B D/F# G
Don't lose sight of who you are.
C/E Em D/F# C(add9)
Don't remember that rush of joy.
D/F# Bm7 G/B
He could be that boy,
Am7 G/C G
I'm not that girl.
D# G# C#
Every so often we long to steal
F#7 B
to the land of What-Might-Have-Been,
Dm G/B E7 Am
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
F Asus Gsus/A D7/A
when reality sets back in.
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A G5/B
Blithe smile, lithe limb,
Gsus/C G5/B D/F# G
She who's winsome, she wins him.
C/E Em D/F# C(add9)
Gold hair with a gentle curl--
D(add9)/F# Bm7 G/B
That's the girl he chose,
Am7 G/C Dsus D
and heaven knows,
(let ring) Gsus/C...
I'm not that girl.
[Intrumental]
... G5/B G5/A G5/B
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A
(For the next four bars, I play the main riff an octave up the neck. So with the
capo it's:
Gsus/C G5/B G5/A Gsus/B Gsus/C Gsus/B
e||--10--------10----------10--|--10--------10----------10--|--10--------10----------10--|
B||---8-----8---8-------8------|---8-----8---8-------8------|---8-----8---8-------8------|
G||------7-----------7---------|------7-----------7---------|------7-----------7---------|
D||--10---------9--------------|---7---------9--------------|--10---------9--------------|
A||----------------------------|----------------------------|----------------------------|
E||----------------------------|----------------------------|----------------------------|
Don't wish, don't start. Wish-ing only
Then I go back to normal, at the base of the neck)
D/F# G
wounds the heart.
C/E Em D/F# C(add9)
I wasn't born for the rose and pearl,
D/F# Bm7 G/B
There's a girl I know--
Am7 G/C Dsus D
He loves her so,
(mute)
I'm not (break)
G/C G/B G/A
that girl...
If you want to resolve the song instead of leaving it on the questioning tone,
play a G at the end somehow: harmonics, plucking, hitting the whole chord, etc.
And there you have the basics of it, good luck! \(^o^)/
A few of the weirder chords:
Cadd9 Dadd9/F# Dsus2 Asus
e||--0--|--0------|--0---|--0--|
B||--1--|--3------|--3---|--0--|
G||--0--|--2------|--2---|--2--|
D||--0--|--0------|--0---|--2--|
A||--3--|--0------|------|--0--|
E||-----|--2------|------|-----|
And in case any of you didn't know, a chord name with two letters and a slash: D/
F#, for example, means play the chord named by the first note with the second note
in the bass. So D/F# means play a D chord with an F# as the lowest note instead of
a D. So instead of xx0232 you play 200232. C/E means play a C chord with an E as
the lowest note, so 032010 instead of x32010, etc etc.
