Song
Built to Spill- Fly Around My Pretty Little Miss-
Transcribed by John Crowell
It's best to play this song with open chords and kinda bluegrass style
It's in standard tuning
e------0---------------0-----| B------1---------------2-----| G------0---------------2-----| D------2---------------2-----| A—3--------------0-----------| E----------------------------|
Like so
And when I say F*, I mean F like, instead of the barre chord
like is used in the verse.
e------1---------------------| B------1---------------------| G------2---------------------| D------3---------------------| A------3---------------------| E----------------------------|
So here it goes
Intro- C
C A G F
I know you're making accidents and stars for everyone
C A G F
you're amazing half of them won't know until you're gone
C A G F
and in this ritual you take command and lose control
C A G F
and in this situation find an ocean, sell your soul
F * C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
C A G F
and when it's over set aside a moment to forget
C A G F
it's now or never now's the chance to choose what you'll regret
C A G F
to taking all your time and leaving me with more than I want
C A G F
because I know this time absolutely, positively
C A
may...maybe
G F
may...maybe
C A
may...maybe
G F
may
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
Solo:

F* C
and all the signs of your life
F* C
you're making all time alright
F* C
and all the lines of your life
F* C
you make it fine
C A G F
and when it's later open up your window just in case
C A G F
you're a radar built to scan the deeps of outer space
C A G F
and if you recognize subtle patterns in the sky
C A G F
don't take it as a sign unless it eases your mind
C
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C
fly around my pretty little miss
why don't you
F* C- let it ring out baby!
fly around my pretty little miss
All in all, a pretty perfect pop song.
Have a great day!
