Bette Davis Eyes - Kim Carnes - transcribed by Gary Chapman Part of the "tablature you didn't really want but got anyway" series. The only recording of this song I have is an ancient and in mono. It's missing the start and the finish. I had trouble deciphering the lyrics. --- Chords used: Badd9Badd9 FF DmDm C majorC E MajorE --1-- --1-- --1-- --0--| BB --1-- --1-- --3-- --1--| G+G --3-- --2-- --2-- --0--| D MajorD --3-- --3-- --0-- --2--| A augmentedA --1-- --3-- ----- --3--| E MajorE ----- --1-- ----- -----| Keyboards parts arranged for guitar: Fig. A augmentedA Fig. BB E MajorE -----1-------------------- -----1--------------1------| BB --------1-----------3--1-- --------1--------------1---| G+G -----------3-----2-------- -----------3-----3---------| D MajorD --------------0----------- --------------3------------| A augmentedA --1--------------------3-- --1-----------3------------| E MajorE ------------------------- -----------------------1----| Fig. C majorC Fig. D MajorD E MajorE -----1--------------1----- -----1--------------0--1--| BB --------1--------3-----0-- --------1--------1--------| G+G -----------3--2----------- -----------3--0-----------| D MajorD --------------0----------- -----------------------0--| A augmentedA --1--------------------3-- --1-----------3-----------| E MajorE -------------------------- --------------------------| (These first 4 parts break down to the following chords: Fig.A: Bbadd9Bbadd9 DmDm C majorC Fig.B: Bbadd9Bbadd9 Bbadd9/C FF Fig.C: Bbadd9Bbadd9 DmDm C majorC Fig.D: Bbadd9Bbadd9 C majorC DmDm ) Fig. E MajorE Fig. FF E MajorE --------- --10---10-11-13----10---8---8---8---8-10----10-11-13---10--8--| BB --------- --------------------------------------------------------------| G+G --------- --------------------------------------------------------------| D MajorD --3-0-3-- --------------------------------------------------------------| A augmentedA --------- --------------------------------------------------------------| E MajorE --------- --------------------------------------------------------------| Fig G.
