------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: jamie mernick E-mail: [email protected] I saw Modern Baseball live last weekend, and I fell in love with them in only a few short days. They opened with Tears Over Beers, so I searched for a tab and found mostly chords/tabs that looked similar to this;
E-------------------------------|-------------------------------|

D-6---------6---------6---------|-6---------6---------6---------|
A-4---------4---------6---------|-5---------5---------4---------|

When I was just a boy, we'll call it 15 or so

I found myself annoyed by a syndrome of sorts in my bones
It also turns out that this is how the lead singer plays while he is singing. However, I was having trouble hitting the notes with my voice, so I wrote a tab that made it easier to find your correct pitches. This tab also sounds more melodic and pleasing to the ear- especially if you're playing alone. I have tabbed the intro, and wrote the chords and lyrics for the rest of the song. I will refer to the chords by their bass note, as the main notes (G#+C#) do not change for the majority of the song. C# x466xx D x566xx D# x666xx F x866xx F# x966xx F#* 2x66xx -- if you cannot reach this, you can just play x966xx or whatever sounds good to you.

Thanks, please email me for suggestions/any notes I should take for future tabs, seeing as this was my first guitar tab.
