Song title:      Charmer
Original Album:	 Charmer

Words and Music by Aimee Mann
Copyright © 2012 SuperEgo Records
Published by ???

Transcribed by Gavin Chart (contactus@gartfrets.net)


NOTES:
Here's an acoustic version of this great song. I've transcribed 2 versions:
one with capo on 7 which plays in a higher register, and one with no capo,
(which follows).

I prefer the one with capo but if you have a 12-string, the one without will
sound great. It's just a question of which sounds cool to you. Enjoy!


VERSION 1:
----------
Capo on 7. Chords are relative to capo. Timing is 4/4 and quite fast.

C/G             Am       F
  When you’re a charmer,
C/G          Am   F

They can’t see the hidden agenda you got going on

Am                F             C/G  G
  But when you’re weak it’s the Holy Grail
Am               F           C/G  G
  You’re two for one, it’s a fire-sale
Am             F             C/G    G
  And that’s a wall that you cannot scale
          Am        F      C/G   G
So you’re forced to burrow under
