Biography:
Patrick Wolf (born Patrick Denis Apps on 30 June, 1983) is a singer-songwriter from London, United Kingdom. Wolf mixes electronics and samples with a wide range of instruments including viola, keyboards, ukulele, and percussion, all of which he plays himself to form a fusion of jazz, folk and electronic music.
He began experimenting with sound and four-track recording at the age of 11, eventually building an arsenal of instruments that included junk-shop organs and a home-built theremin.

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!
As there’s no tab for that song so far, I tried my best to come up with an easy one.
Suggestions, corrections (esp. for the ‘solo’) and comments highly appreciated!
I usually play the F’s and G’s as staccato as possible and strum the Em’s loosely, but
that’s up to you, I guess.
For the intro:
e|--5--5--5--5^6--3---8p7h8-|

A boy like me is told
Em G
He is both nine and ninety
Em
And a boy like me
F Em
Should shut those books
G
Join the army
Em
And a boy like me
F Em
Would never be seen
G
Fighting for peace

I want total chaos
F Em G
And a holiday home in the east
