Chords

From: Smeared Tabbed by: Mark Wiebe, [email protected] This song has already been posted by someone else but it's totally wrong, so I thought I'd put my own version on. I'm glad to see that there are some other Sloan fans out there in cyberspace. They were a great band while they lasted. Tell me if you have any comments, corrections, or suggestions. Thanks. Tuned down about a half step Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb (It doesn't seem like it's quite on the exact pitch, so you might have to fool around with you're tuning pegs a bit to match it.) During A, B, C# part of Fig.1 part the second guitar sometimes picks the notes of the chords rather than strumming them.

Verse (Fig.4) I wrote for you a sugar tune To help you through what you gotta do When you're one the ground and keep falling down remember how I made this sound Bridge (Fig.2) Sound sou - nd Sound sou - nd Keep playing Fig.2 until the end if the song......sugartune....by sloan if you don't know sloan, they are (were) a cool Canadian band that just recently broke up. ): here's the song sugartune from their first album "smeared" (go buy it) It's pretty easy, mostly power chords, I don't have some parts, so if you like sloan help me out. For people who have never heard this song before I put in the beat values, for the intro atleast. Play with distortion, I think there's another guitar playing some- thing but I have no idea what.
