Kimberley
View chords used in this chart
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!
