Big Girls Don't Cry Fergie
Tabbed By: Z
Comments: My first submission was missing a couple minor but necessary changes. This
my first submission to any tab site. This tab / chord chart is an evolution of the one
by Manilette Ann P. Fernandez "Maan". I think that one was in the right nieghborhood
the chords were in the wrong spot and I don't hear an A minor chord anywhere. These are
chords I hear and voicings where I could figure them out.
Not a difficult song, but listen carefully for the strumming patterns to be accurate.
do fine with this chart playing solo acoustic guitar with a vocal on top.
Good luck. Any comments / feedback send to: the-brite-side@hotmail.com

The path that I'm walking
I must go alone
I must take the baby steps until I'm full grown
Fairytales don't always have a happy ending, do they
And I foresee the dark ahead if I stay

[C9]Valentine
[G]Yes, you can hold [G/F#]my hand if you want to[C9]
'Cause I want to hold yours to[C9]o
W[G]e'll be pl[G/F#]aymates and lovers and share ou[C9]r secret worlds

[G/F#]It's getting late, dark outside
[C9]I need to be with myself instead of calamity
[C9]Peace, Serenity
