"Rich Girl" by Augie March Written by Richards/Augie March Transcribed by Tim Byron (using the lyrics Ada and I figured out about a year ago) [Rich Girl uses the same guitar tuning as The Moth Ball - EADABE. To get this tuning you need to get your G-string (put a bad joke of your choice here) and tune it up two semi-tones, so instead of playing a G when you pluck at the string, you play an A. Glenn strums most of the way through. Almost all of the chords require the same hand positioning, which is like what you'd use if you were playing a normal G chord.] Chords used: EADABE Gadd2 320033 F#mb6 2x0022 Bm7 7x0077 Aadd4 540055 Cmaj6add2 870088 Fadd2 x87088 E5 0x6650 G5/E 0x9980 D X900XX (the capital X's represent 10) [intro] 4 bars of Gadd2 [verse 1] Gadd2 Then I asked about your forefathers F#mb6 Were they murderous too?

Gadd2 Just a little bitter, woman F#mb6 Than the likes of me and you Bm7 Well I'm no F. Scott Fitzgerald Aadd4 But I know a champagne birth Gadd2 So was she light or heavy handed F#mb6 When she delivered you your words? [chorus] Aadd4 I asked if you were lonely Cmaj6add2 You said it didn't matter Fadd2 These are old emotions F#mb6 We need to bury them and leave them Gadd2 Move onto something new Bm7 Aadd4 We need to bury them and leave them Gadd2 Like I'm leaving you [verse 3] Gadd2 So I had to make it anybody out there F#mb6 Writing songs about shit Gadd2 Well I know I'm not supposed to be F#mb6 Serious about it, but I'm serious about it Bm7 Aadd4 But I don't want to find no backdoor Gadd2 And I don't want to feel no other's arms F#mb6 Empty stuff comes better when I'm on my own Aadd4 And I make it so I'm on my own [chorus] Aadd4 You asked me I'f I'm lonely Cmaj6add2 I guess it doesn't matter Fadd2 These are old emotions F#mb6 We need to bury them and leave them...
