Version 1 Version 2 Version 3Ok this is the song transcribed for guitar. It's not exactly 'cool' but its a good party song. It works best on an acoustic guitar with a real um-cha kind of chord pattern like I've tabbed. NOTE: The dot (.) symbol above the tab means staccato (stop the chord from ringing)! Pattern 1: A . . . . . . D . . E . . . . . . . . e---0---0---0---0---0---0----2---2----0---0---0---0---0---0----0---0- B---2---2---2---2---2---2----3---3----0---0---0---0---0---0----2---2- G---2---2---2---2---2---2----2---2----1---1---1---1---1---1----2---2- D---2---2---2---2---2---2--0-0-0-0----2---2---2---2---2---2----2---2- A-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-------------2---2---2---2---2---2--0-0-0-0- E-----------------------------------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---------- Ok each stanza uses this pattern like so: A Now I go cleaning windows D To earn an honest bob E For a nosy Parker A It's an interesting job ALL of these verse use this pattern and also the instrumental breaks. And each refrain uses pattern 2: F#m . . . . E . . . . D . . . .
