The Wolf that lives in Lyndsey -----------------------------------------
By Joni Mitchell From the album 'Mingus'
Tabbed by Martin Ley mley@acorn.co.uk
Here's the tuning.
From low to high it is : C G Eb F B D
In 'Joni' notation this is : C 7 8 2 5 4
You do need to listen to the song to see how it's played. I've really only included the bare essentials (the chord shapes, and a couple of strumming patterns). The song starts off with the bottom C hit really hard, and the following harmonics:
D-----7---------------12---------------------------| B-----7------5--------12---------------------------| F-----7------5--------12---------------------------| Eb-----------5--------12---------------------------| G--------------------------------------------------| C--------------------------------------------------|
This next figure gets used at a couple of points in the song:
Fig A D----------------0---------0-----5-----------------| B----------------0---------0-----5-----------------| F----------------0---------0-----5-----------------| Eb-------------0---------0-------5-----------------| G--------5-7-8-------7-8---------5-----------------| C--------------------------------5-----------------|
Here's how the song hangs together:
