Jason Mraz – Frank D Fixer


it should look something like this. hope that helps
in square brackets I placed chords you can use if original ones too difficult to you

G6 [G](000023) - from 1st string to 6th
Em* [Em](000420)
C (310230)
C#m7b5 (x5454x)
Cmaj7 [C](x5453x) or (354533)
Gmaj9 [D](53045x) - just like C chord, just move it 2 frets higher.
F#11b9 (000423) - add D string to G6
A7 (020200)
G (330023)
Esus2 (000420)
B5 (000422) - those 2 chords are similar to F#11b9

pay attention to his specific way to play it with his right hand.

intro G6 

G6 Em*
 Frank D. Fixer was a handyman
C G6
 He could handle everything; he was my granddad
G6 Em*
 He grew his own food and fixed his own car
C G6
 I watched it all happen in our backyard
C#m7b5 Cmaj7 G6
 He'd reinvent the part to fix the broken home
C#m7b5 Cmaj7
 He restored the heart

CHORUS:
C Gmaj9 G
 I wish I was a fixer
C Gmaj9 F#11b9
 I would fix you up inside
C Gmaj9 F#11b9 A7
 I would build you a town if the world fell down
C Gmaj9 G
 I wish I was that guy

G6

G6 Em*
 If Frank D. Fixer were alive today
C G6
 Well he may laugh at me and he may have a lot to say
G6 Em*
 Well he might ask that I keep working for the family
C G6
 To keep the bills all paid and be his protégé
C#m7b5 Cmaj7 G6
 What happened to the ground right where we are?
C#m7b5 Cmaj7
 What happened to the family farm?

CHORUS

Esus2 B5 F#11b9 C - 2 times

Esus2 B5 F#11b9 C
 Every evening breaking bread
Esus2 B5 F#11b9 C
 He showed us who a real man is
C#m7b5 Cmaj7
 No matter what my grandma says
C#m7b5 Cmaj7
 He would never lose his head

CHORUS

C Gmaj9 G
 I wish I was a farmer
C Gmaj9 F#11b9
 I would grow you a Garden of Eden
C Gmaj9 F#11b9 A7
 I would bless the family with the gifts that granddad handed me
C Gmaj9 F#11b9
 How wonderful that would be
C Gmaj9 G
 Baby I'll make that guy be me

VERY-VERY simple solo at the end
1st -3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-
2nd -2-3-3-3-2-3-3-3-0-1-2-3- and play with it; look like Jason does it
3rd-6th strings aren't used in solo
