Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
There are some minor variations on the picking patterns, depending on which version you're using, but the one
below has pretty much all details from different versions combined. Occasionally, the open G-string is substi-
tuted for an open B-string, but other than that, you can repeat the tab below throughout the entire song. The
picking pattern can be a bit tricky, because there are a lot of 32nd notes, but if you use your thumb and in-
dex finger for the E- and A-string respectively, and use your middle finger to alternate between the D- and G-
string, it's pretty doable.
Good luck!

Been climbing trees, I've skinned my knees, my hands are black, the sun is going down
Gsus4 Csus2/E
She scruffs my hair in the kitchen steam, she's listening to the dream I weaved today
Gsus4 Csus2/E
Crosswords through the bathroom door, while someone sings the theme tune to the news
Gsus4 Csus2/E
And my sister buzzes through the room leaving perfume in the air and that's what triggered this
Gsus4 Csus2/E
I come back here from time to time. I shelter here somedays
Gsus4 Csus2/E
Gsus4 Csus2/E
A high-back chair, he sits and stares, a thousand yards and whistles marching-band
Gsus4 Csus2/E
Kneeling by and speaking up, he reaches out and I take a massive hand
Gsus4 Csus2/E
Disjointed tales that flit between short trousers and a full dress uniform
Gsus4 Csus2/E
And he talks of people ten years gone like I've known them all my life like scattered black & whites
Gsus4 Csus2/E
I come back here from time to time. I shelter here somedays
