Biografía:
World Party is an alternative rock band which formed in Prestatyn, Wales in 1985. Its only consistent member is former Waterboys keyboardist Karl Wallinger. They are best known for their 1985 international hit single "Ship of Fools", one of the first alternative rock songs to hit the Top 40 in the United States.
Wallinger was a key member of The Waterboys during their 'Big Music' period, which covered their first three albums: The Waterboys, A Pagan Place, and This Is The Sea.

CAPO: 2nd fret (Will then sound in the recorded key of A)
Chord names and fret positions are relative to the capo:
G = xx5433 or 320033 G/B * = x2xxxx A7 = x02020
D/F# = xx4232 or 20023x G/D = xx0xxx Cadd9 = x32030
Em = xx2000 or 022000 C * = x3xxxx A7/E = 0xxxxx
Em7/D = xx0000 or 020000 C/B = x2xxxx A7/G = 3xxxxx
C = x32010 C/A = x0xxxx A7 * = x0xxxx
G/B = x20033 C/E = 0xxxxx D = xx0232
A = x02220 C/G = 3xxxxx A * = x0xxxx
G * = 3xxxxx A7sus2 = x02000 A/C# = x4xxxx
A/E = xx2xxx
The verse progression could alternatively be played as:
G G/F# G/E G/D C C/B A
| /_/_/ /_/_/ /_/_/ /_/_/ | /_/_/ /_/_/ / / |
For the verse end sections I chose an A7sus2, but a smooth
A9 chord [x02423] is actually more accurate, so take your pick.
For another alternative see the riff tab at the bottom of the page.
