"New York Mining Disaster 1941"
(B. Gibb)
Verse 1:
In the event of something happening to me
There is something I would like you all to see
G Am/D [xx0555]
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew
Chorus:
Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
Do you know what it's like on the outside
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a landslide
Mr. Jones
Verse 2:
I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
Maybe someone is digging underground
Or have they given up and all gone home to bed
Thinking those who once existed must be dead
repeat chorus
Verse 3 [repeat verse 1; slightly different chords at end]
In the event of something happening to me
There is something I would like you all to see
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew
repeat chorus
Coda:
Mr. Jones...
OK, if you want all of these to sound exact you'll have to tune to open D
(low to high: D A D F# A D) like Barry Gibb used; the chord fingerings in
that tuning are:
Am x07677 Am/D 000677
C 575675 [or barre at 10th fret]
D 000000
E 222222 Esus4 222322
F 333333
G 555555
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
