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
