GRAPEFRUIT JUICY FRUIT By Jimmy Buffet Here's my take on the Jimmy Buffet song "Grapefruit Juicy Fruit." It seems like a good exercise for beginning fingerstylers (like me). Suggestions and corrections are always appreciated. The intro and the verses are mostly fingerstyle with some rhythmic strumming tossed in: E --------------------|----------------|----------------- |----------------| B ----4---5---------6-|---5---4---3----|-4---5---------6-|---5---4---3----| G --------------0-----|----------------|-----------0-----|----------------| D --------------------|----------------|-----------------|----------------| A ----2---3---3---3---|-3---3---3---3--|-2---3---3---3---|-3---3---3--- 3--| E --------------------|----------------|----------------- |----------------| Beat o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o -----------------------------------| 1st Ending | Strum G chord Strum C chord E ---- 2---3-----------|----------------|-----------------|----------------:| B --------------0-h1--|-0--------------|---------------1-|-----1----------:| G --------------0-----|-0--------------|---------------0-| h2--0----------:| D --------------0-h2--|-0- -------------|-----------------|----------------:| A --------------------|----------------|-----------------|-----------0-h2-:| E ----2---3---3-------|----------------|-----------------|---------3------:| o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o o 2nd ending (strummed): C C7 CHORUS Dm G Cmaj7 And oh it gets so damn lonely Dm G Cmaj7 when you're on a plane alone Dm G Cmaj7 And if I had the money honey I'd strap you in beside me D7 G (tacet) And never ever leave you leave you at home all alone and cryin' Here's the lick on "all alone and cryin'": E -----3-h5-3---6---3-h5-3----------- B ---5------------------------------- G ----------------------------------- D ----------------------------------- A ----------------------------------- E ----------------------------------- Verses (sing with the tabbed stuff) Grapefruit A bathin' suit Chew a little juicy fruit Wash away the night Drive-in You guzzle gin Commit a little mortal sin It's good for the soul (chorus) Ten speed No need My pickup gets me where I please Chuggin' down the street But I'll be leavin' In a little while So close your eyes and I'll I'll be back real soon (chorus) Thanks to Mike Hall, from whom I copped the lyrics. |
