Biography:
Blake Babies is an indie rock band formed in 1986 in Boston, Massachusetts. The three primary members were John Strohm, Freda Love (born Freda Boner), and Juliana Hatfield, with Evan Dando, Andrew Mayer, Seth White, and Mike Leahy each also performing as members of the band at various times during its history.
The name "Blake Babies" was provided by the poet Allen Ginsberg; following a reading at Harvard University, the group (which had just begun to play together) raised their hands and asked him to name their band.

This version is my personal intrepetation of the song intended to match the
general way played on the Rosy Jack World album and by JH live solo. Jules
vary the chords a bit sometimes but I believe that this is at least a close
match to the way I saw her play the song live from a distance of three
meters from the stage :)
Originally, I had lots of inspiration from a tab I found on the internet in
the late ninetees that unfortunately doesn’t seem to exist anymore on any of
the JH-tab pages or tab-pages in general (I never kept a copy so I
really don't know who to credit) – but lots of thanks goes to the person
who did this...
The proper positioning of the chords over the text was a little tricky in
some cases due to the beat and since many chords had to be fitted in but I
believe that it is still possible to understand the intentions (listening
to the song should clarify this).
I hope you will enjoy the tab! /Mads
