(ver. 1)
The Veils
                             NOT YET - The Veils
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard

The first note in this song is a high C, maybe 5th fret on 3rd (G) string.

Then there's this run:
e|-------00-0-0----------0-00-0-0--------|
B|-------11-1-1----------0-00-0-0--------|
G|-------00-0-0----------1-11-1-1--------|
D|-------22-2-2--2-0-0---2-22-2-2-2-0-0--|
A|-0-2-3-33-3-3--------3-2-22-2-2-------3|
E|-----------------------0-00-0-0--------|

That goes directly into a lightly palm muted Am chord. (All these verses are palm muted lightly)

Am
Mama when she'd ride that horse
Am
Buried out in Wilson field
Am
Mama'd tell me all she thought
Am
Mama'd tell me all how ridin' feels

        C                 E
And I thought
       Am
Not yet

Am
Then mama got too old
Am
And no one ever rode that horse
Am
Until one night I stole her key
Am
And I did ride it all night til dawn

        C                E
And I thought
        Am
Not yet

Am
It looks an ugly world out there
Am
Of girl-guides, disease and war
Am
I love my little velvet bed
Am
I never want to leave it any more

               C               E
At least not
        Am
Not yet

Am
Charlie was the first I caught
Am
And Charlie was the first I begged
Am
To lay an anchor in my heart
Am
As he ran his fingers down inside my legs

           C                     E
And I thought
        Am
Not yet


Am
Love I tried to find you           x several times

C              E                 Am
                                               not yet!
Am

C
All my fears, they come to me in dreams
E
May be the end at least far as it seems
Am
Not yet died and not yet mourned
Am
Not quite revived just not yet born

Am (palm muted)
Mama when she'd ride that horse
Am
Buried out in Wilson field
Am
Mama'd tell me all she thought
Am
Mama'd tell me all how ridin' feels

               C              E
And I thought
        Am
Not yet!
C     E              Am
No, mama
C     E              Am
No, mama
C     E              Am
No, mama

Great song, quite simple. Lots of fun. I was surprised no one had tabbed it out yet. You 
throw that run in basically anywhere, especially in the "not yet" bits. Spices it up a little.
