Five String Serenade Mazzy Star
The original is by Albert Lee/ Love, but this is the Mazzy Star version from
`So Tonight that I Might See':
Verse:
[G]This is my [A5]five-string seren[C]ade
[G]Beneath the [A5]waters at [C]play
[G]And while I'm [A5]playing for [C]you
[G]It could (might) [A5]be raining the[C]re too
Chorus:
[C]And on my easel I [D]drew
[C]While I was thinking of [D]you
[C]And on the roof of my [D]head
[C]In came my five-string seren[D]ade
G C G(strum)
End: This is my five-string serenade
The song follows the pattern: | A5:
| E 0
Verse | A 0
Verse | D 2
Chorus | G 2
Verse | B 0
Chorus | E x
End |
Picking:
Picking is the same for each line of the verse:
[G] [A5] [C]
E--------------------------------- B--------------------------1------ G----------0-----0-----0-----0---0 D--------0-----2-----2---2-----2-- A------2-----0-----3-------------- E--0h3----------------------------
The first three lines of the chorus are:
[C] [D]
E---------------------------2------ B-----------1-----------3-----3---0 G-------0-----0---0---2---2-----2-- D-----2---2-----2---0-------------- A---3------------------------------ E----------------------------------
Then the final line of the chorus goes like this:
[C] [D]
E----------------------------2h3p2--------------2h3p2------ B----------1-------------3---------3--------3---------3--0- G------0-----0---0-----2---2---------2----2---2------------ D----2---2-----2-----0------------------0------------------ A--3------------------------------------------------------- E----------------------------------------------------------
And then back to the verse.
Hope that's clear - it's really fairly simple.
