[Song: Roy Harper "Short And Sweet"]
[Transcription by Gordon Walker <scogpw@thor.cf.ac.uk>]
Right, as promised (at last!) here's my transcription of Short and Sweet.
This only has the few words I can remember with it. If you want the full
words maybe someone else knows them, or you can work them out yourself
(kind of me I know!). If desparate I could go and get them myself I
suppose, but I think I've done enough here!
You really need the music to play along with to get an idea of what's
going on. If you're unfamiliar with these types of chords then best to
have a mess around with them before hand to get the feel. It's all
really quite easy once you get the hang of it. My version of Tom
Tidder's Ground uses the same principle and types of chords - quite a
common thing for Roy to do.
I haven't fully road-tested this so if anyone has any comments
or corrections, please post them.

Short and Sweet (Harper/Gilmour)
Tuning: Standard with dropped bottom E to D
With the chords below, play either all six strings with one big
downward strum, or just the highest three with the bottom strings
ringing (as drones) (v. important that!). Or else give the bottom strings
little strums inbetween playing the main tune on the high strings.
Listen (or watch if you have chance - sorry non-uk readers!) to what Roy
does and you'll see what I mean (except in the trashy bit - see note
below).
