I noticed the lack of Echobelly in OLGA so I decided to knock something up.
(Also went to the gig at Manchester Academy last night and wanted to share
a bit of the Echobelly experience with you all!)

I'm afraid I haven't included all the lyrics - I can't tell what she's
saying half the time!  I have included the chorus and 1 verse.  There is
a middle eight but that's just the verse chords with no vocals.
Basically there's enough here to get you playing a half decent rendition!

Please e-mail me with any comments or if you find these useful and I will
have a crack at other echobelly tracks - let me know which you want to see.

GREAT THINGS by ECHOBELLY taken from the album ON

Opening chords 1 strum each and let them ring out for 1 bar....
Fmaj7 C   B

CHORUS repeat twice each time
           E
I wanna do great things
              A
don't want to compromise
                  F#min7
I wanna know what love is
I wanna know what love is

(variations of)
                  D
     I wanna know everything
is it something I do to myself
      I wanna try everything
is it something I do to myself, something I do to myself

(after each chorus play 2 quick stabs on G then before the verse comes in
just alternate between A and G staying for 2 beats on each.  ie A A G G etc)

Verse 1
A       G         A        G      A       G       D      Dsus4  A
More to life than love and war or so they say and so the saying goes
A       G        A      G           A       G            Dsus4  Fmaj7
Want to see more broken hearts than you can count???????????????war?
   C         D                     Fmaj7 C           B7
Oh what do I know, there's gotta be, so  much I dont know....

I wanna do...etc

If anyone out there e-mails the lyrics to me I will tidy the whole thing up!
