MITCHELL JONI - "peoples parties" Tablature

PEOPLE'S PARTIES - Joni Mitchell
------------------------------------------


tabbed by Howard Wright

Tune guitar to open D

From low to high : DADF#AD


Please note that the strumming pattern is only approximate. The shapes
are the main thing - I've indicated roughly how many times each is
strummed but this isn't 100% accurate.

The same with the words - the changes should match up fairly well with
the words but listen to the record to get the detail.

/ means slide

The rest follows almost exactly the same pattern - the only real
difference is at the end with the lines 'laughing it all away' :


D---0-------0---0-----0--0-------0----0--0--------0---0-0-0-0-0--0---
A---0-------0---0-----0--0-------0----0--0--------0---0-0-0-0-0--0---

A---0-------0---9-----9--9-------2----2--2-----------------------0---
D---------------9-----9--9-------2----2--2--------------------------

Laughing ..



This repeats three times (I think) then it goes :


D----5-----------3---0---------
A----5-----------3---0---------
F#---5-----------3---0---------
D----5-----------3---0----------
A----5-----------3---0----------
D----5-----------3---0----------

Laughing ..



That's all !
