Joanne – Lady Gaga

Tabbed by: maguri
Tuning: Standard
Lady Gaga
Joanne (2016)
(Germanotta/Ronson)
From: "Joanne"
Sometimes there’s more than one acoustic guitar, I think. This tab here,
however, offers a reading for one player that recreates the overall feel
of what is heard. I included the lyrics after the tab.
The 2+ and 4+ in the | 
G+G 
C majorC | C majorC | part in intro, verses and interlude are
not clearly defined: these notes are very short (dampened?) maybe just
dead notes. I marked most of these notes by putting them in brackets.
One has to experiment a little to adjust to the feel here and find
an individual soultion.
Suggestions, comments and corrections are highly welcome!

Take My Hand
Stay, Joanne
Heaven’s not
Ready for you
Every part of my
Aching heart
Needs you more
Than the angels do
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
If you could
I know that you’d stay
We both know
Things don’t work that way
I promised I
Wouldn’t say goodbye
So I grin
And my voice gets thin
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
Honestly I know where you’re going
And baby you’re just moving on
And I’ll still love you even if I can’t
See you anymore
Can’t wait to see you soar
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
Girl, where do you think you're going?
Where do you think you're going, going, girl?
