Lemonheads – 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

Tenderfoot By Smudge (or a Lemonheads cover song)
written by Tom Morgan (Smudge) and Adam Young (Daisygrinders)

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...
