Kimberley

Capo on 3rd fret
	  		

 
 (that way he can do all those nice bass notes). 



Intro and Verse: 


It's worth listening for the strum pattern, as JB tends to like his fast but understated strumming. 

He does a different intro on every version, so pick the one you like. Usually he just  
plays the D chord over 
and over. 

For the verse, he's playing it like this: 

D                   D 

Well I'll tell you a story 

        Bm                 G 

About a girl named Kimberley 

D                    D 

Who all the cowboys wanted 

     Bm               G 

Cos she was wild and free. 


Chorus: 

He switches it up a bit in the Chorus, and the G chord becomes the one held for 2 bars.   
Like so: 

D 

I am what I am 

    Bm 

And I am strong 


      G 

Cos I got my land 

     G 

And I got my song 


HARMONICA BITS: 

During these he is just playing either the verse or Chorus chord progression. Listen to  
each part if you 
want to play a harmonica as well. Or just play whatever. 


Bridge: 

This bit is where a tab is useful, and where the other tab available kind of misses out.  
 Here's what 
he's doing. 


Where......do I  Stand.....  Got this hole...and a line drawn in the sand

And he ends that bit on the G (the first chord). That's about it I think!
