================== Whippin' Picadilly ================== Transcribed by Richard Averill. E-mail corrections or comments to: nigelolympus@tinet.ie ----- Notes ----- The main part is played on a steel string acoustic guitar, tuned normally. The acoustic is double tracked (separate the channels to hear this clearly). Keep a continual up\down strumming pattern going, as shown. An electric slide guitar joins in during the first chorus. I have tabbed the slide guitar part with the 5th string tuned up 2 frets to B, although you could just as easily play this part with the 2nd string tuned down 2 frets to A, and then move all the slide tab up two frets. I'd appreciate help on this aspect, as I have little slide guitar experience. The CD is very neatly channeled - the slide guitar part is separated entirely onto the right channel, if you need to hear it clearly. --------- Structure --------- 1-8 Intro. 9-24 Verse 1. 25-28

time, not too long ago, took a day out in Manchester. We all fall down - there's not enough hours in our day. Played a bit of football, fell into the union, barged our way into the toilet with a kung-fu king - there's not enough hours in our day. I remember seeing someone, dressed in a suit, looking like a lunatic. We all fall down - there's not enough hours in our trip. Well, academy cartwheels breaking your hands, "We got lovely posters for sale." And we all fall down - there's not enough hours in our day. We like lovin', yeah - I don't know why we share. We like lovin', yeah - I don't know why we share. Finally made our way back to the train, rolling in at Sheffield tonight. And it all falls down - there's not enough hours in our life. So try and lose my way, wait at the station, whippin' Picadilly tonight. And it all falls down - there's not enough hours in our life. We like lovin', yeah - I don't know why we share. We like lovin', yeah - I don't know why we share.
