Okkervil River

Okkervil River - Savannah Smiles guitar tab

This is taken from a live version, played solo by Will but its pretty much identical to

album version. I've layed down the main verse and chorus patterns. These patterns aren't

for note as he changes the picking a little at times. Bring out the melody notes from

with the base being covered by the thumb, the other notes that fill in the

aren't as important. Here's how it goes:

intro

chorus

verse

Midnight late last week

My daughter's diary

Didn't know what it might be 'til it was open

I only read one page

And then put it away

Talk about your big mistakes

Hey Shan, nice going

chorus

Photos show no tears in her eyes,

All those pretty years gone by

I just cannot believe could do that to a child

A child

A child

verse

Shannon just flew down

Four days back in town

She sleeps and lies around and then she goes out

And then one day she's gone

What should I have done?

Joe turns the tv on with all the lights out

chorus

Photos on the wall

She's my baby

She's my baby doll

Is she someone I don't know at all?

Is she someone I betrayed?

chorus

It's a grey day in the fall

And the radio's singing down the hall

And I rise to turn it off cause all I'm seeing is her face

Age 8
