PRETTY MARY K

3/4 TIME!!!
intro/riff:

B------------8/10--12/14--10------
G-6-7/9--11--0-0---0--0---0------------
D-0-0-0--0---0-0---0--0---0----------------
A-0-0-0--0----------------------------

**i'm almost 100% positive that this is not right b/c those open strings
don't sound quite right...but the "6 7/9 11 8/10 12/14 10" is accurate i
think. i would encourage anyone to supply the correct tab for this riff if
they've figured it out or saw elliott play it live or whatever...**

i hope this is easy enough to understand, i wrote the chords above the
lyrics from memory, so if they're a little off then just listen to the
song for rhythm. i'm pretty sure that the only part that's not accurate
is the intro riff, which i will continue to work on but in the meantime i
encourage you to work on it also...other than that i think it's a pretty
good transcription...but if i'm wrong and it's confusing then please let
me know -- dwwagner@cs1.presby.edu or wagner@mindspring.com
