  • Well,this one is in the key of F but is played with a Capo at the first fret as
    far as I can gather.

    You can get the rhythm from the record. bssically you play the top chord above (an Fm)
  • and just slide your 4th finger up one fret and back down again in time with the record.
     
    Fm (same pattern as intro)
  •  
    I went out walking the other day
    The wind hung wet around my neck
  • My head it rung with screams and groans
    >From the night I spent amongst her bones
    I past beside the mission house
  • Where that mad old buzzard, the reverend,
    Shrieked and flapped about life after your dead
    Well, I thought about my friend, Michel
  • How they rolled him in linoleum
    And shot him in the neck
    A bloody halo, like a think-bubble
  • Circling his head
    And I bellowed at the firmament
    C
  • Looks like the rains are hear to stay
    And the rain pissed down upon me
     
  • Bb G# G Fm
    And washed me all a - way
    Saying
  •  
    Fm
    Papa won't leave you, Henry
  • Papa won't leave you, Boy
    Papa won't leave you, Henry
    Papa won't leave you, Boy
  • Well, the road is long
    And the road is hard
     
  • C
    And many fall by the side
    But Papa won't leave you, Henry
  •  
    C Bb G# G Fm
    So there ain't no need to cry
  •  
    Fm
    And I went on down the road
  • He went on down the road
    And I went on down the road
    He went on down the road
  •  
    Repeat above for second verse/chorus
     
  • (at the end of various phrases in this bit Blixa plays two notes
    Bb (3rd string 5th fret) and G# (4th string 6th fret). He puts a lot
    of vibrato on both notes. You can slot them in where appropriate.
  •  
    Fm
    And I came upon a little house
  • A little house upon a hill
    And I entered through, the curtain hissed
    Into the house with its blood-red bowels
  • Where wet-lipped women with greasy fists
    Crawled the ceilings and the walls
    They filled me full of drink
  • And led me round the rooms
    Naked and cold and grinning
    Until everything went black
  • And I came down spinning
    I awoke so drunk and full of rage
    That I could hardly speak
  • A fag in a whale-bone corset
    Draping his dick across my cheek
    And its into the shame
  • And its into a guilt
    And its into the fucking fray
    And the walls ran red around me
  • A warm arterial spray
    Saying
    Papa won't leave you, Henry
  • Papa won't leave you, Boy
    Papa won't leave you, Henry
    Papa won't leave you, Boy
  • Well, the night is dark
    And the night is deep
    And its jaws are open wide
  • But Papa won't leave you, Henry
    So there ain't no need to cry
     
  • Repeat verse/chorus structure over the last verse/chorus.
     
    This version represents the live seeds version more than the Henry's dream version because the HD
  • version has more pronounced keyboard parts which embellish what the guitar does. Still this is
    what the guitarists play believe it or not!!

  • Christina the Astonishing
    Gm
    Lived a long time ago
  • She was stricken with a seizure
    D
    At the age of twenty-two
  • They took her body in a coffin
    Gm
    To a tiny church in Liege
  • Where she sprang up from the coffin
    D
    Just after the Agnus Dei
  • She soared up to the rafters
    Gm
    Perched on a beam up there
  • Cried "The stink of human sin
    Eb D
    The stink Is more that I can bear"
  • Eb Bb G# Gm
    Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh Rpt
    Eb Bb G# Gm D
  • Oh, oh, ohohoh, ohoh- oh oh, oh
     
    Repeat over subsequent verses.
  •  
    (there is actually no Guitar on this track on the record
    everything is played on a keyboard)
  •  
    INTRO:
     
  • E |---|---|-----------------------------------|x
    B |---|---|---|x------------------------------| Standard Chord tab - numbers relate to fingers
    G |---|---|---|o------------------------------| 'x' means the string isn't played
  • D |---|-*-|---|2------------------------------| 'o' means the string is played 'open'.
    A |---|---|-*-|3------------------------------|
    E |---|---|-----------------------------------|x
  •  
    E |---|---|------|x
    B |---|---|------|x
  • G |---|---|------|o
    D |---|---|------|o
    A |---|---|-*-|3-|
  • E |---|---|------|x
     
    These two chords are 'picked' one string at a time from the A string down to the open G.
  • i.e. you pick the three notes in the first chord, remove one finger and pick the three
    notes of the second chord (I will refer to this as the 'C Pattern'). This pattern is repeated over and
    until the line "oh lord how quickly, they changed their tune' over which you play (with the same 'plucking'
  • as before) - I shall call this > the 'F pattern');
     
    E |---|---|------|x
  • B |---|---|------|x
    G |---|-*-|---|2-|
    D |---|---|------|x
  • A |---|---|-*-|3-|
    E |-*-|---|---|1-|

    B |---|---|------|x
    G |---|---|------|o
  • D |---|---|------|x
    A |---|---|-*-|3-|
    E |-*-|---|---|1-|
  •  
    Then change back to the first pattern for the beginning of the next piece of lyric.
    i.e.
  •  
    C pattern
     
  • When I first came to town
    All the people gathered round
    They bought me drinks
  •  
    F pattern C Pattern
    Lord, how quickly they changed their tune
  •  
    rpt over next lyrics;
     
  • When I first came to town
    People took me round from end to end
    Like someone may take round a friend
  • O how quickly they changed their tune
     
    Suspicion and dark murmurs surround me
  • Everywhere I go they confound me
    As though the blood on my hands
    Is there for every citizen to see
  •  
    F
    O sweet Jesus
  •  
    C
    There is no turning back
  • Gm Eb
    There is always one more town
    Cm F
  • A little further down the track
     
    C
  • And from my window, across the tracks
    I watch the juicers burn their fires
    And in that light
  • Their faces leer at me
     
    F C
  • How I wish they'd just let me be
    C
    When I first came to town
  • Their favours were for free
     
    Now even the doors of the whores of
  • F C
    this town Are closed to me
     
  • Repeat these basic chorus/verse patterns through the rest of the song. Should be easy if you just follow
    record.
     
  • Fm
     
    Well the night was deep and the night was dark
  • And I was at the old dance-hall on the edge of town
    Some big ceremony was going down
    Dancers writhed and squirmed and then,
  • Came apart and then writhed again
    Like squirming flies on a pin
    In the heat and in the din
  • Yes, in the heat and in the din
    I fell to thinking about brand new wife of mad John Finn
     
  • Well, midnite came and clock did strike
    And in she came, did John Finn's wife
    With legs like scissors and butcher's knives
  • A tattooed breast and flaming eyes
    And a crimson carnation in her teeth
    Carving her way through the dance floor
  • And I'm standing over by the bandstand
    Every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
    Yeah, every eye gaping on John Finn's wife
  •  
    Gm / Cm / Gm / Cm / Gm / Cm / F
     
  • Fm
     
    Now John Finn's wife was something of a mystery
  • In a town where to share a sworn secret was a solemn duty
    I had brass knuckles and a bolo knife
    Over near the bandstand with John Finn's wife
  • She got perfumed breasts and raven hair
    Sprinkled with wedding confettis
    And a gang of garrotters were all giving me stares
  • Armed, as they were, with machetes
    And the night through the window was full of lights
    Winking and awatching at John Finns' wife
  • Winking and awatching at John Finns' wife
     
    Next came the cops, all out on the town
  • But it don't look like no trouble there
    As they had for the bar in their lumpy suits
    And I slip my hand between the things of John Finn's wife
  • And they seemed to yawn awake, her things
    It was a warm and very ferocious night
    The moon full of blood and light
  • And my eyes grew small and my eyes grew tight
    As I plotted in the ear of John Finns' wife
     
  • Gm / Cm / Gm / Cm / Gm / Cm / F
     
    Fm
  • Enter John Finn in his shrunken suit
    With his quick black eyes and black cheroot
    With his filled-down teeth and a hobnail boot
  • And his fists full of pistols in his pockets
    Aiming at me and aiming at his wife
    The band fall silent fearing for their lives
  • And with fear in my guts like tangled twine
    Cause all I got is brass knuckles and a bolo knife
    And mad John Finns' wife is all
  • And the three of us walk out of the hall
     
    Now the night bore down upon us all
  • You could hear the crickets in the thickets call
    And guns did flare and guns did bawl
    And I planted my bolo knife in the neck
  • Of mad John Finn. I took his wretched life
    Now I'm over near the bandstand
    Every hand moving on John Finns' wife
  • Every hand moving on John Finns' wife
     
    Fm Bb
  • And John Finns' wife
    F
    Took all the flowers down
  • Gm
    >From her hair
    Cm F
  • And threw them on the ground
    Bb
    And the flies did hum
  • F
    And the flies did buzz around
    Gm
  • Poor John Finn
    Cm F
    Lying dead upon the ground
  • Bb
    Lying dead upon the ground
     
  •  
    Fm
    It was the dirty end of winter
  • G#
    Along the loom of the land
    Eb C#
  • When I walked with sweet Sally
    C# Fm
    Hand upon hand
  • Fm
    And the wind it bit bitter
    G#
  • For a boy of no means
    Eb C#
    With no shoes on his feet

    And a knife in his jeans
    rpt
  • Fm Eb
    O baby please don't cry
    Fm
  • And try to keep
    Eb C#
    Your little hand upon my shoulder

    Now go to sleep
     
  • repeat verse/chorus pattern over remaining words.
