Song Title: Margey (Pearls Before Swine) E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| From their classic 1970 album, 'The Use of Ashes'. Tabbed by James McKinnon. Like a lot of 'Pearls' songs, the bare bones are a simply picked arpeggio by Tom Rapp, with the other band members adding substance and colour with various and wonderfully eccentric instruments. I have taken some of this from the intro to the original recording (as much as possible), but mainly from a live radio broadcast where the instrumentation is lighter, so Tom's picking can be more easily followed. Even so, there are a couple of guitars at work, so it's not easy separating one from the other. The chords are basically D, C, F and G and you can really do whatever you like with them, using this simple pattern as a skeleton to build your own sound around. Tuning: Standard. / = Accent.

All the rest of the verses continue on in the same way, except for the outro, as played at the end of the reprised first verse, as seen below. Other verses: A friend is in the army now Another is in jail. There's a blackness on the land Nobody is well. Margery, Oh! Margery. Everything's in chains And everyone is blinded to The sanctity of change. There are prayers to paralysis, A mask for misery. And everyone is so far away From where he ought to be. Margery, I must go now, I must go. Until I find this land at peace And everyone comes home. Reprise Intro: (Note: the outro of the last three bars is actually played on a second guitar [probably Jon Tooker], but works just as well as transcribed here.) / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / E|-----2--------2-----------|-----0--------0--------0--|-----2--------2-----------|-----0--------0--------0--| B|--------3--------3--------|--------3--------3--------|--------3--------3--------|--------3--------3--------| G|-----------2--------2-----|-----------0--------0-----|-----------2--------2-----|-----------0--------0-----| D|--0--------------------0--|--------------------------|--0--------------------0--|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--3-----------------------|--------------------------|--3-----------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------|--------------------------| Margery, I am a wanderer.
