The Shape I Found You In Girlyman
Girlyman â?? The Shape I Found You In
Ty Greenstein of Girlyman writes love songs with a depth of longing that we mere mortals
only marvel at. Here is my puny interpretation of one of her best.
Tuning: EADGAC#
Capo 1
Tune you guitar like this from standard tuning:
1. Lower your B (5th) string one whole step to A (2nd fret on the G string)
2. Lower your high E (6th) string 1-1/2 steps to C# (4th fret on your newly tuned A
string)
3. Apply your capo to fret 1
Please tune carefully or it will sound like ass. I play the low G note with my thumb
the G chord as a bar.
There are several simple picking patterns that repeat:

Example:
[A]You were delivere[G]d to me
We were closed a[A]s the stores on Christm[D]as Eve[D1] [-] [D2] [-] [D3]
So I fel[A]t around in the dark[E1]
Building rope [G]ladders into your hear[D1]t
Climbing hand ov[D1]er hand to get [E2]in[G]
That's the shape I[D1] found you i[E2]n[A]
That's the shape I[D1] found you i[E2]n[A]
