The technique used is travis picking, which is very extensively used in country, american folk and bluegrass music. Worth checking out some lessons on it if you´re not already familiar, very adaptive and useful style of playing chords and relatively easy to get into. It takes practise though :-) So, here it is: Am I can't spare a moment for the dog faced boy C I won't lend another hand to the worm girl of Hanoi Am Don't deplete my oxygen for the guy who's turning blue C But ask me, and I'll do anything for you
G7 Whenever I think of you it only makes me feel sad C Whenever I think of you, the best friend I ever had... C Before I gave it up all for nothing C/G bass) Well, I lied and I cheated G7 And it made me feel bad It made me feel guilty for not being true Oh the months I spend trying for a way to explain C In the end all I could do as turn my head in shame D7 Whenever I think of you, oh darling, it only makes me feel sad G7 Because you deserve better and once I was it C But somehow my good intentions just got up and git C So I can´t spare a moment on the dog faced boy C I won´t lend another hand to the worm girl of Illinois F I can´t deplete my oxygen for the one guy who´s turning blue C
