Harvey P J

Harvey P J - Joe guitar tab

A new attempt:

Joe by PJ Harvey (mutated by Sean Hennessey)

The chords are: A, C, G, and D

I'm not sure of the form of the song, listen to it, all the bits are here.

The rhythm (main riff - tricky!) goes something like this:

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 -

A . . A . . A . . A . . A . . A . . C C C C C C

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 -

A . . A . . A . . A . . A . . A . . G G G G G G

So the song goes (The lyrics are from Jason's PJH homepage, blame someone else

for their inaccuracies, blame me for the guitar ones!):

Intro. (riff above)

Verse (With riff above)

A C

Joe ain't you my buddy be

A G

stay with me when i fall and die

A C

always thought you'd come rushing in

A G

clear the shit out of my eye

Chorus (Of sorts)

D A D C

Verse (again)

Joe ain't you my buddy be

lay my enemies out in lines

come in close now i'll wash your feet

with my hair i'll mop them dry

Chorus (of sorts, again; but with: (I'm not positive about the timing on the

parts with the lyrics, but them's the chords. Scratch the muted strungs

between the Second D and the A-C-A parts.)

D A C D A C A

with my hair i'll mop them dry

D A C D A C A

something over there i do not like

The Middle Eight:

d|-----------------------7--------5-----||

a|--O--O--O--3^-- 3 > 5-----5--3-----3--||

E|--------------------------------------||

(Key: ^ means slight bend, > means slide up to)

More verse:

joe will you be my buddy please

in this hell and day long time

when i'm trusting my hated tree

coming down with your silver knife

More chorus:

coming down with your silver knife

something over there i do not like

Ending bit: (These are chords, the O meaning open strings, play the A as a

power chord, the C is a single note vibratoed like mad)

A - A - O - A - A - O - A - A - O - C^

To lots of noise to FIN
