Date: Fri, 7 Jul 95 17:28:43 EDT From: Winston Campbell <[email protected]> Subject: SPRING HEELED JIM by Morrissey Spring Heeled Jim (Morrissey/Whyte) This is the second song off of -Vauxhall & I- and a pretty good one in my opinion. I play this song with a capo on the fourth fret. The intro and interlusions (if there is such a word) are this RIFF: F Am G#-------------1-----------|-------------0-----------| D#-------1--------1--------|-------1--------1--------| B---2------2-------2----2-|---2------2-------2----2-| F#-3---3---------------3---|-----2---------------2---| C#-------------------------|-0-----------------------| G#-------------------------|-------------------------|ESpring-Heeled Jim winks an Ameye He~ll Cdo, he~ll never be Ddone toDsus4 He takes Eon whoever flew Amthrough Well it~s the Cnormal thing to Ddo(ahhh) RIFFESpring-Heeled Jim lives to Amlove Now Ckissing with his Dmouth fulDsus4l And his Eeyes on some other Amfool So many Cwomen, his head should be Dspinning(oh but no) RIFFESpring-Heeled Jim slurs the Amwords There is Cno need to be so DknowinDsus4g Take life at Efive times your average Amspeed Like I Cdo D Dsus4 EUntil Jim feels the Amchill Oh Cwhere did all the Dtime goDsus4 EOnce always in for the Amkill Now it~s too Ccold And he Dfeels too oldRIFF (ending instrumental played with verse chords) you may notice my deliberate use of Dsus4 chords and i justify that by telling you that if you listen to the album closely, it has such a feel for A Dsus4 chord. for poor people who cannot afford capoes, i can sympathize, so i will decode each chord into their correct names and their correct fingering, but having a capo makes it so much easier. (the cheapest capo costs only two dollars or maybe less). anyway: E A D G B E ----------- Capoed F = A 5 7 7 6 5 5 Capoed Am=C#m x 4 6 6 5 4 Capoed E = G# 4 6 6 5 4 4 Capoed C = E x 7 9 9 9 x Capoed D = F# x x 4 6 7 6 Capoed Dsus4=F#sus4 x x 4 6 7 7 (questions, comments, phillipics, email me) bye-bye
