Frank Black and the Catholics

Song: Velvety

Album: Devil's Workshop

[INTRO]

B* E B B* A B (2x)

B E B

Out on the Eisenhower, well, I lost my speed

G# F# E

Just a little bit south of a town called Weed

B E B

I heard her voice and I had to stop

G# F# E

She called me on to that mountain top

B E B

I'm a poor soul lost in the shady trees

G# F# E

I was going to die I was going to freeze

F# G#m

When she touched me

F# B E A D

She was velvety

F# B E A D

She's a cat of a creature, don't care, she's Velvety

F# B* E B B* A B

She makes the strangest sounds

B E B

She was an island girl of the ancient line

G# F# E

When the whole damn thing sank into the brine

B E B

Her true lover from her was torn

G# F# E

She packed it up to Californ'

F# G#m

Then she met me

F# B E A D

She's Velvety

F# B E A D

She's a cat of a creature, don't care, she's Velvety

F# B* E B B* A B

She makes the strangest sounds

[SOLO]

F# G#m E B

F# G#m

B E B

Out on the Eisenhower, well, I lost my speed

G# F# E

Just a little bit south of a town called Weed

F# G#m

I met Velvety

F# B E A D

My Velvety

F# B E A D

I like that lemur I lick it that's Velvety

F#

She makes a pretty sound

[OUTRO]

B* E B B* A B (2x)

*on this 'B' Frank does a sliding thing in from an A barre chord.

and for the G#, it might be minor during the verses but it doesn't

seem like it. it's almost as if it could swing both ways.

a little insiders info... or not, maybe everyone already knows this...

This was a pixies b-side (an instrumental) and Frank originally wrote

this song when he was about 15.
