Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole


Martha Wainwright – BMFA (Bloody Mother Fucking Asshole) - Tabbed by Leo Barker 25/02/07 Chords: D - XX0232 G/D - XX0797 A/D - XX09119 Em9(no 5th) - xx2032-| G5 - 3x0033 G5(1) - 3X0032 Em9 - 022032 A -x03330---------| This song isn’t nearly as hard as these chords would make out, but since there are so poorly tabbed versions out there, I thought I’d throw mine into the mix which is certainly bit more accurate. For the D and G/D chords that open the song and are repeated throughout, you need to the first finger onto the middle G string, listen for the timing. So you are going from this: xx0032 ...to this: xx232. And then this: ....to this: xx0797. The only other thing to note is that she alternates between using the G5 and the G5(1) as I have labelled it above, so just listen for which is used where. Intro: D G/D D G/D Poetry is no place for a heart that's a whore D G/D And I'm young & I'm strong But I feel old & tired, overfired. D G/D And I've been poked & stoked, it's all smoke, there's no more fire A/D Only desire Em9(no 5th) For you, whoever you are D For you, whoever you are Second Verse: D G/D You say my time here has been some sort of joke D G/D That I've been messing around some sort of incubating period D G5 For when I really come around I'm cracking up Em9 And you have no idea G5(1) D No idea how it feels to be on your own G5(1) D In your own home with the fucking phone G5 <---- note not G5(1) And the mother of gloom D In your bedroom G5(1) Standing over your head Em9 D With her hand in your head, with her hand in your head G5 D I will not pretend I will not put on a smile G5 A I will not say I'm all right for you when all I wanted was to be good G5 D To do everything in truth, to do everything in truth From here on there are no surprises and you can follow the patterns above and just to match the chords.
