(play primarily the bottom three strings, and then once he does a little
sweep of the top strings, just listen).
I knew a woman once
giving birth to kittens and mice
And as you know, with their eating habbits
Those poor mice had to die
So the kittens were born
full of their brothers and sisters
And they were punished swiftly
though they did not know why
They thought they were food
they did not know what they'd done
And I was a person once
sending off unread letters
receiving no reply
never bothering asking why
I had a heart once
full of fire and passion
but the summer took it away from me
And autumn has come to retrieve it
Autumn has come to retrieve it
And I was a man once
When I was six years old
but now I am just a boy
pretentious and brash and bold
The kittens were murdered
thrown into burlap sacks
and weighted down with rocks
in a river deep and black
And th - ey went to Heaven.
Th - ey went to Heaven.
I'm tabbing this without a G string on my acoustic, so I hope it sounds fine (shouldn't
make a difference). Enjoy and keep supporting AJJ...incredible band that shows just
how much simple chords can do.
