(You can play the 'C' chord (3,5,5) as a bar chord on the 10th fret, which is
usually easier)(Also I believe that "C" and "G" are played once but I prefer this way)

| This isn't really Thirteen, this is the Seal cover of "Crazy". Thirteen is just the part thats instrumental and is slip in half. The first played forewards, then the next part is the tweaked up version of the part that was played first, its just tooled around with children speaking (indistinctly) and laughing (seems like coughing or choking if played in reverse) and has harmoneous like singing added into it. You'd think that the two halfs are the same, but they're not, if you play the second half in reverse it sounds a bit different then the other. I think "Thirteen" is a really odd but also amazing track. Its really amazing that the instrumentals that were used for it are very interesting because the notes are the same forewards and backwards when they were played. | |

| With some differences in the lyric (slight), this is basically a cover of the Seal song "Crazy". That is the last 4 mniutes are, the first few minutes is just music and children laughing. | |
