I've corrected my recent submission for Natalie Merchant's "Where I Go" below. I had forgotten to add the F#F# chord diagram and also fixed some notes in the tab after relistening to the song. Here's my take on Natalie Merchant's "Where I go". This is clearly the best song on her solo effort "Tigerlily". I think I only had to listen to it about a million times before I could get it all down. Of course, I will extend that standard disclaimer that this is my first tab submission. Chords (standard tuning): BB B7B7 G# minorG#m E MajorE F#F# A#mA#m A#m/E xx o oo x xx xx o |||||| 7|||||| 4|||||| |||*|| |||||| |||||* |||||| |||||* *---** *---** |**||| ||||** ||||*| ||||*| |||||| |||*|| |||||| |||||| |||*|| ||**|| ||**|| ||***| |**||| |**||| |||||| |**||| |||||| |||||| All the symbols are what you would expect. Here, B7B7 is named so for lack of a better term. I looked through a chord dictionary, but didn't see one the same as my diagram. A#m/E is the same case. Chord Progression: I use (BB G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE x 2) (F#F# E MajorE F#F# E MajorE F#F# E MajorE) for the verse and chorus. Later, there's just (G# minorG#m G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE) and the (F#F# E MajorE F#F# E MajorE F#F# E MajorE) with some variation you will see in the tab. I use the B7B7 in place of the BB whenever Ms. Merchant is not singing. The A#mA#m and A#m/E only occurs once in two measures (at 3:19) late in the song (see strum pattern). Strum Key: | down strum x muted down strum u up strum d d | 4 quarter note 8 eighth note Try the following for the verse (4/4 time): BB G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE 4 4 8 8 4 4 4 8 8 4 4 4 8 8 8 8 8 8 4 8 8 4 | x u u | | x u u | | x u u | u | u x u u | d d | | d d d | | d v v | | v | v | v | | v BB G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE (same as 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 above) | u x u | u | u v | v | v | v | For the A#mA#m measures: A#mA#m A#mA#m 4 4 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 8 (I use A#m/E on the down strum after | x u | u x u | u x u | u | each muted down strum. You really v v | v | v | v | v | v | v need to listen to the song to hear this.) Tab Key: h -- hammer on p -- pull off s -- slide (m:ss) -- time marker at beginning of measure (intro) B7B7 (0:00) G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE |-------------------|--------------|-----------------|--------------------------| |-12----------------|--------------|-----------------|------------------11------| |----11-11h13----11-|-----8s7---8--|----------------9|---9-9h11-9-11-13----13---| |-------------13----|-9h11----9---9|11-9h11-9--9-11--|11------------------------| |-------------------|--------------|-----------------|--------------------------| |-------------------|--------------|-----------------|--------------------------| B7B7 G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE |----------------------|-----------9-|-10p9----------|--------------------------| |-------------12-------|--------12---|---------------|-------12-----------------| |-------11-13----11h13-|--11h13------|------11h13-11-|-11h13----11h13-----------| |-11h13----------------|-------------|---------------|----------------14-13-11--| |----------------------|-------------|---------------|--------------------------| |----------------------|-------------|---------------|--------------------------| (verse 1) BB (0:16) G# minorG#m E MajorE E MajorE Climbing ..
