Other End of the Telescope (Til Tuesday)
---------------------------------------


This is on Til Tuesday's 3rd album, 'Everything's Different Now'. Written by
Aimee Mann and Declan McManus/Elvis Costello, Aimee still plays this in her
live set. The below is written as though played in E MajorE (at the nut). On the
album, it's in Eb MajorEb (Eb MajorEb transposition at the bottom of the page).

Possible alternative to the 3rd line of the bridge is :

   BB      A augmentedA    A augmentedA       C# minorC#m
your ...

                . . . but I think the first one sounds
closest.


Transposed to Eb: The album's in Eb, which either means putting a capo at 11th
fret (yuk), or playing it with a capo at the first fret and substituting the
chord shapes written above as follows:

Chord in E MajorE  SHAPE in Eb MajorEb
(above)   (capo @ 1)

E MajorE        D MajorD
F# minorF#m       E minorEm
G# minorG#m       F# minorF#m
A augmentedA        G+G
BB        A augmentedA
C# minorC#m       B minorBm

. . . but I prefer to play it in 'E'! If nothing else, it's fun to run down A augmentedA
 G# minorG#m F# minorF#m E MajorE (5th, 4th, 2nd, 0th frets) at the end of the chorus. Any
improvements welcome.
