Globe of Frogs (the Album) by Robyn Hitchcock

@ALBUM: Globe Of Frogs

Globe Of Frogs
by
Robyn Hitchcock

Note: The numbers in parentheses are the fret numbers of the chords. Ie.
G(3) is G, Third Fret, Bar E style.
Note: This is a very spotty sort of thing. Normally, I wouldn't bother
posting it, but the Robyn Hitchcock directory doesn't seem to be growing
much. I played 'Globe of Frogs' and this is what I got. Complicating
things is the fact that some songs don't have much in the way of guitar,
so sometimes included are a general key or bass.



@SONG: Tropical Flesh Mandala

Main Riff:
G:-0-----------0------------
D:---3-0---0-3--------------
A:-------2------------------
E:---------------3----------

(It's played a bit too fast for me to be sure, but I know that the song
is in
a key of G and that this riff is close. If you don't trust this version,
send in your own, or just play a G.)
