_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ [G] _
[Dm] _ [Bb] _ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
The change was quite [Bb] subtle and the mood [A] low-key.
_ [Dm] The sky was overcast, [Bb] you could [A] hardly see, [D] and the creatures [Dm] all boogied [G] to a different
[Bb] frequency the day the finger [A] pickers took over [Dm] the world.
Yeah.
[Am] _ [Dm] Yeah, it happened one day, [Bb] way [A] back in the sticks.
[Dm] He picked up his guitar, [Bb] but he had [A] no pick.
[Dm] So with just a thumb and two [Bm] fingers, [G] he made up some licks, [Bb] and finger pickers [C] took [Dm] over the world.
[G] So that's how it happened that wonderful day.
[Dm] With just a thumb and two fingers he started to play.
[G] Without even knowing he was showing the way.
[A] And finger pickers [D] took over [A] this world.
Yes they did.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [Ab]
[A] I'll play [Dm] a little harmony.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ [A] _
_ [F] Okay.
_ _ [B] _ [Em] _ _
[G] _ [Bb] _ _ [Am] _ [Db] _ [Dm] _ _ _
So stop, look and listen.
It'll [A] happen, you'll see.
[Dm] You'll want to join [Am] in and [Bb] play [A] finger [Dm] pickingly.
People once laughed [G] at this _ nonconformity, [Bb] but finger pickers [A] took over [Dm] the world. _
[A] _ [Dm] So all the [Bb] people were finally [A] set free.
[Dm] They all hung out and [Gm] interacted friendly.
[A] _
[Dm] And the air began to [Em] vibrate with [G] sweet tonality the [Bb] day finger pickers [A] took over the [Dm] world.
[G] So that's how it happened that wonderful day.
[Dm] With just a thumb and two fingers, Chet started to play.
[G] Without even knowing he was showing the way.
[A] And finger pickers took over the world.
Like [C] [Dm] this.
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [A] _
_ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ [A]
Yes.
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] Now let me pick a little [Bb] louder.
[A] _ _ [Dm] _ _
I'll play you too.
_ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ [Bb] _ _ [A] _ [Dm] _ Yeah. _
[D] _ [G] _ That's how it happened that wonderful day.
[Dm] With just a thumb and two fingers he started to play.
[G] Without even knowing he was showing the way.
[A] Like [D] this.
