This is my tab for the song Young Legs by Anthony Green. This song is played in standard with a capo on the
3rd fret, but Anthony plays in D, so if you choose to play in D, place the capo on the 5th fret. The chords
used refer to the chord shapes, not the actual names of the chords. This tab below is the intro/chorus riff,
it is demonstrating the bass line along with the chords, it is not however showing the strum pattern, which is
1, 2, +, 3, +. or D D uDu. I broke the intro riff into 4 variations, which are used throughout the song.

Verse:
Dm Am
I can’t believe that it’s true

Rolling around in our burn hole

I felt something I haven’t felt before

Verse:
Dm Am
I can’t believe I was there
Dm Am
Stout little fingers running all through my hair
Fmaj7 Am/D
Scratching up the walls of our cave
Fmaj7 Am/D
Oh, how I wish I had stayed
Fmaj7 Am/D
We could have seen everything in blue
Fmaj7 Am/D
Oh, I think that you know the truth
Chorus (Play all 4 variations):
What did you see, Martha Lee?
Tell me, sick love child drunken with lust
What did you see in that dream?
Besides young legs
Bridge:
Dm Am x2
Fmaj7 Am/D x4
Chorus (Play Variations A, B, C, B):
What did you see, Martha Lee?
Tell me, sick love child drunken with lust
What did you see in that dream?
Besides young legs
Chorus (Play Variations A, B, C, B, A, then play variation A but end on Am before finishing the variation.)
What did you see in me?
Tell me, my love before I've got to leave
What did you see in that dream?
Besides young legs
Young legs
Young legs
