This song is off Damos new album "9" but I had heard it last year
under the title "The Blowers Daughter 2". So here it is 100% perfect,
although the album version is not actually as good as the other version
but still great lyrics just a bit too slow!
Play this for the verse/Pre-Chorus
e|-0---0---0---0--|
b|-0---0---0---0--|
g|-1---4---2---5--| X ?
d|-2---6---4---7--|
a|-2---6---4---7--|
E|-0---4---2---5--|
This for the Chorus
e|-0---0---0---0---|
b|-0---0---0---0---|
g|-1---6---2---8---| X ?
d|-2---7---4---9---|
a|-2---7---4---9---|
E|-0---5---2---7---|
Then for the freakout bit
e|--0---0---0---0-||--0---0---0---0---0-|
b|--0---0---0---0-||--0---0---0---0---0-|
g|--2---5---2---8-||--2---5---2---9---8-|
d|--4---7---4---9-||--4---7---4---11--9-|
a|--4---7---4---9-||--4---7---4---11--9-|
E|--2---5---2---7-||--2---5---2---9---7-|
Then just finish with the verse and its as simple as that!!!
By the way to make it easier to play use your thumb to play the
bass note!

NOT PERFECT!
This is far better than the other one, but still has some errors.
It's right except this:
1. The "verse/pre-chorus"-part is not the same all the way. At the "and she may cry.."-part the (4'6'6'4'0'0)-chord changes to: (9'11'11'9'0'0) or (x'4'6'6'0'0)
2. The chorus: To get the right Damien-sound, use the open E-chord (0'7'9'9'0'0) instead of the regular E (0'2'2'1'0'0)
And right before you change to the next chord change the open E to (0'7'9'8'0'9).
Now it's perfect :-), comments? MVH / Martin

Although this has not as many star ratings as the other version, this is far better. The tip and the chord fingering are just what I was looking for. Finally used my thumb for fretting because of this. Great stuff!
