Looking Over My Shoulder
Elliott Smith
New Moon

Tabbed by: owentonghk@gmail-com

Tuning: DGCFAD (one step down)

This is as it is recorded on New Moon. It is one step down, as Elliott would
have played it (although he probably used a 12-string). Listen to the track
to figure out the strumming. I don't know all the chord names, but the ones
provided are relative to being down one step (ie. 'E' actually means 'D'
etc.) - most people find this easier to read. The chorus is a bit fiddley,
and there are some tricky chords in the verse, but once you get them down,
this song is not hard to play.

  And fills up behind my empty face, full of things that I'm not to do.

Chorus 1 (repeat Intro)

You come over with all of your friends,
And all their opinions I don't want to know.
And I'm looking over my shoulder,
Booking away with nowhere to go.
