If I


------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If I... - Natty ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Louis Richards AKA MadClownDisease Email: hereticbynature@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard, capo on 3rd I love this song, though haven't heard much other Natty which is a shame. It's pretty straight forward, 4 chords in the same order (though how they are played slightly from time to time and the last chord is sometimes played a few extra times, but hear that!) (I'm no expert on chords so i don't know the names, but using a nice website I have to name them!) (tabbed in relation to capo) G7sus4 Fsus4(add9)   C7sus4 e|-0---------0--------0-------0-----| B|-3---------3--------3-------3-----| G|-4---------2--------2-------0-----| D|-0---------2--------0-------2-----| A|-0---------0--------0-------0-----| E|-5---------3--------3-------0-----| Just repeat those 4 chords, in that order. The top e string is rarely hit, but you'll that when you play to the rhythm of the song. Enjoy! Lyrics: If I... If I had skinny jeans and I Had the latest hairstyle and I Stared at my crocodile shoes while I Played you a gig an the Barfly Could I reach for the stars And you could watch me fly And I could I could sing to you all anew Listen to and I and I (?) If I... If I... If I sing you a song in this style and I Swing my head from side to side would you Would you question what it is I do? Would you Would you think I was being untrue? But I grew up on the same streets as you Went to the same schools as you Listened to the same tunes as you I dreamt of being a footballer too But you... But you... If I... If I sing woah-oh-oh-oh-ohhh.... Would you sing along too? If I sing woah-oh-oh-oh-ohhh.... Would you sing along too? If I decide to do a bit of MCing on this tune Would you only be able to find me on Channel U? Would you ever actually be watching Channel U? So I guess I'd never actually get through to you So I So I sing you this song out my pigeonhole But you'd still probably call me reggae soul And I'll be wondering is it my dreadlocks and skin tone? So I sing "how do I break the mould?" "How do I break the mould?" Woah-oh-oh-oh-ohhh.... Would you sing along too? If I sing woah-oh-oh-oh-ohhh.... Would you sing along too? Would you? Would you? Would you? If I... | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off | ~ vibrato | + harmonic | x Mute note ===============================================================================
