The Old Apartment chords by Barenaked Ladies

"The Old Apartment"
BNL
from "Barenaked Ladies Rock Spectacle"

This song isn't much trouble, with the help of a piano playing
aquaintance we worked it up, and pretty much by ear and memory, here's
the extent of it.

 This is my first tab put into here, I hope it works, and I hope you
enjoy it. On that last C chord, Ed does this thing going up a step kinda,
and I'm assuming he's putting 2 extra light strums in to put a voicing
with the 3rd fret on the 2nd string... I dunno, mess with it a little,
and you'll get it with little trouble. Also all of the first chords on
each phrase are hit a beat before the lyric comes in, not right on it. :)

any questions, comments, critiques, not raging powetripping
complaints.... can be sent to djmccoll@catskill.net

 thanx again, Ben (Squeege)
