Sister, Mother Sixpence None the Richer
By Sixpence None The Richer
I love this song! I couldn't find a good tab for it, so I tried to figure it out
Returning to the F# after each phrase of the chorus is optional. I like to play it that way,
I'm not sure that they actually do that on the recording.
F#* & E* are my way of pointing out that these two chords are played higher on the neck:
is on fret 9 (x91111119), and E* on fret 7 (x79997). (you could also just play the
F# and E if you want).
[B]My l[Abm]ife is pl[A]agued
By mis[B]takes, broken h[Abm]eart, sla[A]ps in the fac[E]e
[B]But I'm t[Abm]rying to ca[A]re
E F# F#* E*
To dare to embrace your face
[E]Hug him l[F#]ike a br[Abm]other[F#]
[E]Kiss her [F#]like a s[Abm]ister[F#]
[E]Let it [F#]be my [Abm]mothe[F#]r for n[E]ow
[B]I [Abm]want to f[A]ind
Where the m[B]aid in the s[Abm]treet is po[A]uring her w[E]ine
[B]I heard she [Abm]takes you i[A]n
E F# F#* E*
And gives you the words you need said
[E]If you'll b[F#]e her br[Abm]other[F#]
[E]She'll kiss you l[F#]ike a si[Abm]ster[F#]
[E]She'll even [F#]be your [Abm]mothe[F#]r for n[E]ow
B Abm A (4x)
[E]Hug him l[F#]ike a br[Abm]other[F#]
[E]Kiss her [F#]like a s[Abm]ister[F#]
[E]Let it [F#]be my [Abm]mother[F#]
[E]Let it [F#]be my [Abm]father[F#]
[E]I will [F#]be her[Abm] brothe[F#]r
[E]Kiss he[F#]r like[Abm] a sist[F#]er
[E]Come and [F#]be my [Abm]mothe[F#]r for[E]ever
E F# Abm F#(4x) end on E
