Patrick Wolf

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.

MAGPIE - Patrick Wolf
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: RainbowBassist

Feel free to make any comment/suggestions- as this song is originally for piano, I
tried my best to make it sort of interchangeable with the guitar without working
too much harder than needed.

Tuning: Standard, with Capo on 1st fret

PLAY EVERYTHING IN RESPECT TO THE CAPO ON THE 1ST FRET

G7 35x46x
Amsus4 x02240
Also, use G barred on the 3rd fret

Intro: Strum these chords once (this song sounds even better when fingerpicked)
F | G7 | Am | Am
F | G | Am | Am

Arpeggiating the first four notes of the chords will make it sound like the piano: e.g.

Play twice under violin scale:
e|--------------------------------|------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------|------------------------------------|
G|-------2-------2-------2------2-|-------0------0------0------0-----o-|
D|-----3-------3-------3------3---|-----3------3------3------3-------o-|
A|---3-------3-------3------3-----|---3------3------3------3-----------|
E|-1-------1-------1------1-------|-1------1------1------1-------------|


F Dm Am
Magpie, was it you who stole the wedding ring?
F Dm Am
Or what other thieving bird would steal such hope away?
F Dm Am Am (x02200)
Magpie, I am lost among the hinterland,
F
caught among the bracken and the fern,
Dm Amsus4 Am
and the boys who have no name.

Am
There’s No Name For Us
F
But Still We Sing

F | G | Amsus4 | Am
Oooooohh… etc.
F | Dm | Amsus4 | Am |
And still we sing,


F G
Little boy, little boy,
Am
Lost and blue,
F G Dm
Listen now, let me tell you what to do,

F Dm
You can run on, run along or home
Am
Between the knees of her,
F
All among her bracken and her ferns,
G Am
And the boy will have a name.


And We Will Sing…
F | G | Amsus4 | Am |
F | G | Amsus4 | Am C |



F
One For Sorrow
Dm
Two For Joy
Amsus4
Three For A Girl
Am
Four For A Boy
F
Five For Silver
G
Six For Gold
Am
Seven For A Secret, Never To Be Told
