Fly My Pretties

Song: Fly My Pretties
Artist: Fly My Pretties

tabbed by James van Rooyen

The verse will use the main riff throughout, which on guitar I like to
combine with the bass line (by using my ring finger for the Riff 1 note,
while my index does the bass line).

Intro
Riff 1

Riff 1
Well Wellington�s a small town
But it packs a lot of punch
There�s talent oozing from the walls
They eat ideas for lunch
Asus2
It can get a little claustrophobic even if you try
E Riff1
Fly my pretties, fly


Well I reckon this town�s brilliant
In lots of different ways
But it doesn�t have the money or the glamour of LA
I�m sure you�ll make it there,
Asus2
The star�s are shining bright
E Asus2
If you have to go then fly

Chorus:
D A
Fly away
E Asus2
As long you come back some day
D A
Fly away
E Asus2
Hope to see you round some day

Riff 1
Well I�ve lived here my whole life
And sure the living�s sweet
But what I want�s the whole world just to listen to my beats
Asus2
The only way to do this is travel far and wide
E Asus2
So if you have to go then fly

Riff 1
They say that there�s a brain drain
And I reckon that it�s true
Our best are cruising off shore just to make a buck or two
Asus2
It seems a little sad that we can�t do it all right here
E Asus2
But if you have to go take care

Chorus
