Tenderfoot Lyrics

Em, D C, C, G F#m


Em D C 

 this is the spot of where i jump off

 G F#m 

this is the place i wear the save face 

Em D C G F#m 

this is the bar of where i lose heart

G C 

over the pain and i'm past the bleeding 

 Am D

its not the tracks its where they're leading

Em D C

this my best king carnovore

 G F#m 

this is my scream its just a dull roar

Em D C G F#m

these are my hands i've shown you before

G C

over the pain and i'm past the bleeding

 Am D

its not the tracks its where they're leading


G F#m C F#m

hasn't been so bad yet i'll do it again

G F#m C F#m

error of my ways, maybe one of these days

-repeat

 G D C

its irrelevant i'm an elephant she's a mouse x2

Subject: A better Tenderfoot

Tenderfoot By Smudge (or a Lemonheads cover song)

written by Tom Morgan (Smudge) and Adam Young (Daisygrinders)

Tab by Louisa Sher (.au) and B.Pemberton 

The thing that throws you most in this song is the bass part 

which plays G F# E pattern on the E string

This can be incorporated into the guitar part nicely

But that confuses the tab a bit, so do that yrself at home...
