You’re So Pretty — We’re So Pretty
============================-The Charlatans
This is the opening track on Wonderland. It is mainly made up of
Over-dubs and samples which I have tried to transcribe here. It’ll
Sound a little weird if you’re playing on your own because the bass,
Keyboards and drums each play a big part, but if you’re in a band or
Just jamming to the CD it sounds pretty good:
Chords: E A D G B E
Gm (x x 5 3 3 3)
Bb (x x 8 7 6 6)
Dm (x x 12 10 10 10)
The Song starts off with a weird little sample loop. This is it
For Guitar:-
Riff A
E|——3——3—|——3——3———3|
B|——3——3—|——3——3——3—|
G|——3——3—|——3——3—-3—-|
D|—5——5——|—5——5——5——|
A|—————|———————|
E|—————|———————|
Intro
Riff A x2
Verse 1 (Play chords with same picking pattern as riff A)
Gm
Show me the diamonds, Show me the gold,
Gm
Call me the answer, oh yeah!
Gm
Call me anywhere, I don’t have a care — This is my world.
Gm Bb Dm
You’re so pretty — We’re so pretty.
This is the little lick played after the first chorus. It sounds
Like an acoustic and appears to be double tracked:
Riff B
E|————|—————|
B|————|—————|
G|————|—————|
D|————|—————|
A|———-1-|———-1—-|
E|—1h3—3—-|—1h3—3—-3—|
A more distorted electric sound then plays this in the left channel:
Riff C
E|—————-|
B|———65—5-|
G|——3——3—|
D|—3h5————|
A|—————-|
E|—————-|
This continues repeating through the 2nd verse up until «Talkin’ to
The devil». It is joined again by riff A when the singing starts.
Verse 2
Gm
Show me th silver, show me the gold,
Gm
You’re takin’ my name — ‘Angel’
Gm
Don’t dissapoint me, I see you smilin’
Gm
Tie up my elbows — No joke.
Gm
Talkin’ to the Devil, Talkin to the lord, For one sweet touch.
Gm
Talkin’ me to heaven, Talkin’ me to hell, For your sweet touch.
Gm Bb Dm
You’re so pretty, We’re so pretty

^These fills are double-tracked again, but this time they’re on
Electrics. The original double-tracked acoustics play the notes
