Standard Tuning
This Chord sheet isn�t supposed to be a carbon copy. I switched some stuff around, and
is my own interpretation. The chords are bit more jazzy, and I wrote it so you don�t need
capo. This will sound great for anyone who does solo acoustic gigs. Please Rate. Make
you give it a real shot first because once you get it down it will sound great. Also
for all of the parentheses. The chord names looked really confusing without them. Good luck
Verse 1
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
I once had a girl,
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill) (B7
B13)
or should I say, she once had me..
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
She showed me her room,
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill) (B7
B13)
is- -n't it good, norwegian wood?
Chorus 1
E-9 Amaj9
She asked me to stay and she told me to sit anywhere,
E-9 Amaj9 B/E
So I looked around and I noticed there wasn't a chair.
Verse2
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
I sat on a rug,
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill)
or B13)
bid- -ing my time, drinking her wine
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
We talked un- -til two
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill)
or B13)
and then she said, "It's time for bed"
Chorus 2
E-9 Amaj9
She told me she worked in the morning and started to laugh.
E-9 Amaj9 B/E
I told her I didn't and crawled off to sleep in the bath
Verse 3
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
And when I a- -woke,
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill) (B7or B13)
I was a- -lone, this bird had flown
(C#-7/B) (C#-) (C#-7/B) (C#-7/A) (C#-7/G#)
So I lit a fire,
(E/F#) (E/A) (E/G#) (E) (Fill)
or B13)
is- -n't it good, norwegian wood.

Fill: these are chords, but the names suck. Dmaj(no5th), D5,
and C#-7(no3rd no5th). I think those are their names, but I might be
wrong. If you cant get this down, just do the roots.

E--10--10--9--|
Some variations you can do are:
1. At the end of a verse line you can play a B13 chord instead of B7.
2. You can play an Amaj9/E instead of Amaj9
e--0---|
B--0---|
G--6---|
D--7---|
A--0---|
E--0---|
3. You can do hammer-ons and pull-offs on the 7th fret of the
high e string, during the Amaj9 chord
e--7p0--|
B--0-0--|
G--6-6--|
D--7-7--|
A--0-0--|
E-------|
4. Finally, you can bar all the way down the 9th fret for all the chords in the verse
the fill and the B7 or B13). It is kind of dissonant, but I like it.
