Chords with lyrics
"Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First)" By John Mellencamp Transcribed by Matt McClain (Divine Inspiration by Tiffany Waggoner) This song is played in "G" but you tune down 1/2 step, so it is really in Gb. I guess John thinks he's in Alice In Chains or something. I have typed this in by memory, so this may not be 100% accurate, but it is fun to play. I like to slow this song down and play it on my friend's 12 string. Enjoy. [Alternate betweenG+G and

(SHE SAID YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) I welcome any corrections and additions. Please E-mail me the correct lyrics if you got 'em. Corrected lyrics have been given to me by at least 3 cool people: MENDE JOVESKI in Australia "Allan Phinney" at: <[email protected]> and some other cool person who doesn't come to mind (Sorry, dude.) Peace and Love!!! Matt McClain Somewhere in Mississippi [email protected]
