Biography:
Phildel is an up-and-coming musician from London.
Phildel is a compound name - made up of her two parents' names: Philip and Della. Her father is Hong Kong Chinese and her mother is Irish. Despite being off to a good start, at the age of 8, Phildel's life spiraled into what can only be described as a Dickensian-style story. Her mother married a religious fundamentalist. Her name/religion/lifestyle/dress-code were changed by force,, all of her possessions seized and music became a forbidden evil within the household.

Actual chords: (without capo)
F, Am, Em, F, then
Dm, F, Am
OR, with Capo 5 for the fingerpicking (it also sounds better with a D than the Bm
it technically is supposed to be)
C, Em, D, C, then
Am, C, Em.
I also like to put some lower notes in with my thumb just to make the sound more full,
but it's only the GBe that are really important.

Even though you leave me
Em
crying like a banshee

with the verses, but change at the asterisks.
* When playing the strumming part for the Em chord in the chorus, it's played
with the same note changes on the e string as indicated in the tab.
