Standard tuning
Tab - Lokki - TheSmokinGum

Ok guys - I've been in the studio and tracking this song. The earlier tab didn't sound quite right when played
along with the record, so I thought I'd put it on here for everyone. But any comments or corrections that
get it closer are welcome, this is just what sounds best to my ear!
I have done my best to get the chords in time with the words, you need to listen to the song to get the
strumming.
OK - Some NOTES!
The song uses mostly E, A, B7, but there is a sneaky little F#/B7 which I've shown below. If you want to solo
then I find that it's good to stick to the E Major scale ( not Pentatonic ;) ). Also play the B7 and F#/B7 as
a barre chord - the open B7 doesn't sound as sweet.

E A B7 E
Don't be angry with me darling if I fail to understand
B7 F#/B7 E
All your little whims and wishes all the time
E A B7 E
Just remember that I'm dumb I guess, Like any foolish man
B7 F#/B7 E
And my head stays sort of foggy 'cause your mine
E A B7 E
Well I recall the first time that I flirted with you dear
B7 F#/B7 E
When I jokingly said come and be my bride
E A B7 E
Now the time has turned the pages, It's the sweetest joke on earth
B7 F#/B7 E
That I have you here for ever by my side
(Instrumental)

Maybe some day your gonna hurt me, I've been hurt in love before
B7 F#/B7 E
Only God can know and time alone will tell
E A B7 E
But in the mean time I'll keep loving you with all my heart and soul
B7 F#/B7 E
And pray God to let it last if it's his will
E A B7 E
Don't be angry with me darling if I fail to understand
B7 F#/B7 E
All your little whims and wishes all the time

Just remember that I'm dumb I guess, Like any foolish man
B7 F#/B7 E
And my head stays sort of foggy 'cause your mine
( Enjoy! ;) )
