Papagallo

Somewhat based off of quinn's version.
I don't think this is 100% correct- I think the original is in a weird tuning- but this sounds very close.
If you don't want to change the tuning, you can just play normal power chords.


Drop D tuning. Capo on 6. Everything is relative to the capo.

A5: -022--
D5: 000---
E5: 222---

Riff:
e:-------------------------
B:-------------------------
G:-2--2-0-0-2---4-4s5p0--2- 
D:(2--2-2-2-2---2-2------2)
A:(0--0-0-0-0---0-0------0)
D:-------------------------
This is easy, if it looks intimidating. Index and middle fingers to play the A5, pinky to handle 4th and 5th frets.


A5
Riff (x4)

D5
you were standing near the water
A5
when the wind ripped through.
D5
heard your throat open up like a champagne bottle
A5				     E5
I heard the one perfect song pouring out of you
	    A5					 Riff
there was a darkening sky reflected on the river
A5
there was no way of determining where we were

       D5
low hills, colors gone crazy
    A5
you standing like a ghost with the water behind you
     E5
it's hard to grab a hold of some things sometimes
D5
like you need me to remind you

Riff (x2)

D5
you were standing near the water
A5
and I was looking at the water
D5
then you went down in the water
	A5
and the river began to boil
	     E5
there was a minute when I thought I knew what you were about
	     D5
and then you opened up your eyes and the lord came out

       A5
low hills, colors gone crazy
     D5
you rising from the water like a bird
	  A5				E5
you had a pure song possessing you from shoulder to hip
       D5
and I recognized every single word

Riff (x4)
