Fries With That ukulele

Fries With That

• G

One of my favourite tunes of all time, and the first live act I ever 
saw. This tune appears on a few soundtracks to NZ tv shows 
and Movies, and it's pretty easy to play.

|--Band:     Jester

|--Time Sig: 3/4

Chords:
          E A D G B e
G     | 3 2 0 0 3 3 |
Cadd9 | x 3 2 0 3 3 |
Em7   | 0 2 2 0 3 3 |
Dsus4 | x x 0 2 3 3 |
D     | x x 0 2 3 2 |

Note: during the chorus the the root note 'walks' from Em7 to G 
so should go like this (they're marked as Em7-G):

e|-3--3--3--3--3--3--3
B|-3--3--3--3--3--3--3
G|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0
D|-2--2--2--0--0--0--0
A|-2--2--2--2--2--2--2
E|-0--0--0--2--3--3--3

In the studio version Johnnie Barker just picks the bass note 
then the 1st string repeatedly for each bar (with a couple of 
little slides, but they're easy to work out.) If you just strum 
away to the tune using the below chords it sounds just fine. 
Enjoy and let me know it there's any glaring errors.

-=Guitar Solo - really anything in G with lots of slides sounds fine=-
-=Keep playing G underneath it=- 

                     Em7-G 
   That'll be your soul
                     Em7-G
   That would be so good
                 Em7-G 
   Will that be all?
                     Cadd9
   That'll be your soul
