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!

No Capo

Hi, in verse 1, for the G play only the bass. also if you play this on piano I liked very much
the Bbmaj7, but on guitar sound better the Bb....it's more a piano song.
In verse she change from Gm to Bb in every beat...so don't pay so much atention, just follow the
rhythm and you will get it.
As always, suggestions are welcome.

G/G 3xxxxx

[Verse 1]
N.C.
The trapper and the furrier went walking through paradise
N.C.
And all the animals lay clawless and toothless before them
N.C.
And all the mothers stepped away from their babies
N.C.
Leaving them open and easy to handle
G/G
The trapper and the furrier went walking through paradise
G/G
They took some for now and they got some for later
G/G
And they marveled at the pelts, not a bullet hole in them
G/G
And they filled up the cages with pets for their children

What a strange, strange world we live in
C Bbmaj7 Gm Bb Gm Bb
Where the good are damned and the wicked forgiven

Those who don't have lose, those who got get given

And they wandered towards home, kings of their castles

[Verse 3]
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
The lawyer and the pharmacist went walking through paradise
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
And all the sick were around them with fevers unbreaking
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
Crying and bleeding and coughing and shaking
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
And arms outstretched, prescription-collecting
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
The lawyer and the pharmacist went walking through paradise
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
Pressed suits in a courtroom, aroma of chloroform
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
And they smiled at the judge, disposition so sunny
Gm Bb Gm Bb Gm Bb
Cause they didn't have the cure but sure needed the money
