Here is, at long last, the charts for PJ Harvey's "O Stella" soo...

"O STELLA"
By PJ Harvey (Transcription by Sean)


The main riff goes:
(The top reads the chords and tags (riffs), the next line is the rhythm figure,
and finally the tabs.  The `>' signifies a slight bend)

    F#             A      Tag

    1   +   a  2   +   3   +   4   +
e|--2-------2--2---O------------------|
b|--2-------2--2---2------------------|
g|--3-------3--3---2------------------|
d|--4-------4--4---2------------------|
a|--4-------4--4---O-----------O---3--|
E|--2-------2--2---X-------3>---------|

Repeated three times, after the final time, tag #2 is:

Tag #2

   1   +   2   +
e|----------------|
b|----------------|
g|----------------|
d|----------------|
a|------O--3>--O--|
E|--3>------------|

So, the song goes:

(No chords)
   Stella Marie you're my star

(The full riff above, then:)

   F#           A     B     F#         A      B
   Stella Marie you're my star

   F#              A    B     F#       A      B
   Stand on ground look up at her

        F#         A    B     F#       A      B
   Just hanging in gold stone

        F#            A    B     F#    A      B
   Just hanging there face froze

         F#          A   E
   But I think I see her smiling

   F#          A    G#
   Think I see her smiling

   F#          A   E
   Think I see her smiling

   F#          A   G#
   Think I see her smiling

(With riff above:)

   F#     A   Tag#1
   Go

   F#     A   Tag#1
   Go

   F#     A   Tag#1
   Go

   Tag#2
   Go    Go


(The second verse, same as the first)

   Stella Marie you're my star
   In your blue blue tavern you light my lantern
   O Stella's large
   Pink almond face
   It's glowing in space

   A place for heroes only
   Place for heroes only
   Place for heroes only
   Place for heroes only
   Go
   Go
   Go
   Go Go Go Go

   Stella Marie you're my star
   I pin you to my chest
   Sell you to the rest
   I kiss her gown
   Send those angels down to woo me now

   I think I see her smiling
   Think I see her smiling
   Think I see her smiling
   Think I see her smiling
   Go
   Go
   Go
   Go Go
   Go
   Go
   Go
   Go Go
   Go
   Go
   Go
   Go Go


Thar she goes,

Tara now,
