Jim Henson’s Dead  Stephen Lynch

Tuning - Standard
This is the version he plays on 'A Little Bit Special'. There is one note difference
to the live version as he makes a mistake in the first verse but it's unnoticable.
This song requires pretty good fingerpicking skills. There don't seem to be any other
tabs on the net for this that aren't just bad chords so, enjoy.

Verse 2
The verse are now strummed...
Verses
[G] [G] [F] [C]  
Chorus
[Dm] [G] [Dm] [G] [F] [C] [F] [G]  
Hopefully you can figure out the strumming. After the last chorus you play the verse again twice
and then play the intro twice, ending on a G chord.
Thank you!
