Shingle song / Peter Hammill

Here's another enjoyable sad song. Play all the F#m and Bm chords on the
first verse without letting the higher (6th) string sound. The other verses -
you shouldn't give a damn, and I didn't check whether Hammill did at all.
The E and Esus4 chords are not played on the 0 position (the end of the
neck) but in the way I show (I hope). You can ignore it if it makes you busy
and just play it on the more comfortable position.
Don't forget to sing it in a VERY low bass voice...

The lyrics were typed by somebody to cs.uwp.edu. I don't know who sould get
the credit for that, but he deserves it, anyhow...

F#m: 2-4-4-3-2-2 on first verse better do: 2-4-4-3-2-x
Bm: 2-2-4-4-3-2 on first verse better do: 2-2-4-4-3-x
E: x-x-6-4-5-4 or: x-7-9-9-9-x
Esus4: x-x-x-4-5-5 or: x-7-9-9-10-x
G#m: 4-6-6-4-4-4
A: 5-7-7-6-5-5
