Great Big Man - Don McLean
--------------------------

This is from McLean's live album `SOLO'.

When playing A, D and E chords, change between major and 6th chords,
i.e. actually play for instance A A6 A A6 A A6 etc. (blues style)

In the chorus, the `great big man...' part is played like this:

e -----------------------------------------------------|
B -----------------------------------------------------|
G -----------------------------------------------------| (*)
D -----------------------------------------------------|
A --------------0--------------------------------0-----|
E --------------------3---2------------1-----0---------|
it takes a great big man to win a great big fight.
Intro: A A6 A A6 ...
A
Rust on your fingers, you got trouble at your feet.
A7
Keep the homefires burning, but look out for the heat
D
'cause there's a man at the window who knows just what you think,
A
and there's a water boy behind you who won't give you a drink
E
Well it's a hard, hard time, no easy road in sight,

(*)

it takes a great big man to win a great big fight.
