My Brilliant Feat Tab

by Colin Hay


This is a tab from the acoustic guitar version on the album "Going Somewhere"

Standard tuning.

Chords uses:

G - 320033
 - XX0232
 - XXXX0233
 - X20033
 - X32033
Em7 - 022033

Alot of it is palm muted on the recording, you can hear where if you
listen but it doesn't really matter much if you do it too or not.

Intro:  -  -  - 

He plays the intro like this on the recording, though just strumming the basic
chords is fine. I won't put the strumming pattern as you can hear it and figure
out the timing yourself.

e|--3---------2--3--3------3---------2--3--2--3-----------------------------|
B|--3---------3--3--3------3---------3--3--3--3-----------------------------|
G|--0---------2--0--0----0-0---------2--0--0--0-----------------------------|
D|--0---------0--0--2-0h2--0---------0--0--0--2-----------------------------|
A|--2--0-2-3-----2--3------2--0-2-3-----2--2--3-----------------------------|
E|--3----------------------3------------------------------------------------|


                      
Did someone call my name

                              
Like a distant drum thats beating

                                  
or is it just another dream of long ago

                        
I dance again, I am spinning

                        
In the light, I am living

                                                
And I can feel the power, rushing through my veins



Bridge:

                              
Once upon a time, I could do no wrong

                                  
Though the candle flickers, the flame is never gone

(walk on the A string as in the intro going onto the D, and alternate the D with Dsus4)

Chorus

                  
To my brilliant feat

                
May they all pay heed

                                
I hear the crowd roar, oh so loudly


Second verse and bridge, then the second chorus is extended:

                  
To my brilliant feat

                
May they all pay heed

                                
I hear the crowd roar, oh so loudly

                  
To my brilliant feat

                
I make grown men weep

                                
And still my eyes grow, oh so cloudy


After the last chorus play Em7 - Cadd9 - D to finish. 

Comments welcome.
