Sect. 1 (Played during INTRO and "Hurry Hurry Hurry")
e|---------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------| A|-----7-----11-----9-----9-----9-----9--| E|--5-----9------7-----7-----7-----7-----| (play 5 times during INTRO)
Sect. 2 (VERSE)
(Oh my wrists are weak...)
Here are two versions of it.
The first is the way I play, and below that is a version that requires less of a stretch.
Either way works (because the notes aren’t changed, just the placement on the neck).
Version 1:
e|------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------| A|-----12-----------11------------9------------7--| E|--9------------7------------5------------4------| (slide back up to 9 on E when repeating)
Version 2:
E|-----------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------| D|-----7------------6------------4------------2--| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|--9------------7------------5------------4-----|
At “Hurry hurry hurry” play Sect. 1 again 3 times
Sect. 3.1
(Don't judge a book by the size of its wrists...)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-----7-----9-----11-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4--| E|--5-----7-----9------2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----|
Sect. 3.2
(Separated for simplification of the outro. "Sect. 3" means both 3.1 AND 3.2 are played without pause) e|---------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------| A|-----7-----11-----9-----9-----9-----9-----9-----9--| E|--5-----9------7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----|
Order of play:
Intro - Sect. 1 x5
Verse 1 - Sect. 2 x4
Chorus 1a - Sect. 1 x3
Verse 2 - Sect. 2 x4
Chorus 2a - Sect. 1 x3
Chorus 2b - Sect. 3 x2 (second time through, play the 7-9 repetition 8 times
instead of 6)
Verse 3a - Sect. 2 x4
Chorus 3a - Sect. 1 x3
Verse 3b - Sect. 2 x2
Chorus 3b - Sect. 1 x3
Chorus 3c - Sect. 3 x1
Sect. 3.1 x2 (SKIP Sect. 3.2 this time)
Sect. 3.2 x1 (repeating '7-9' 8 times instead of 6)
Sect. 3 ENDING x1 (see below)*
*This whole last part is different, if you hadn't noticed.
It becomes a bit jumpier at this point, with the sections becoming slightly shorter.
Not terribly complicated, but for the sake of accuracy here it is.
Sect. 3 ENDING looks like this (this is how the song ends):
e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-----4-----4-----4-----4-----7-----11------14-----7-----7-----7-----7--| E|--2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----9------12------5-----5-----5-----5-----| e|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-----7-----9-----11-----4-----4-----4-----4-----7-----11------14-----9-----9-----9-----9--| E|--5-----7-----9------2-----2-----2-----2-----5-----9------12------7-----7-----7-----7-----| e|---------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------| A|-----7-----9-----11-----4-----4-----4-----4--| E|--5-----7-----9------2-----2-----2-----2-----| e|-----------------------------------------------------------| B|-----------------------------------------------------------| G|-----------------------------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------------------| A|-----7-----11------14-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7-----7--| E|--5-----9------12------5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----5-----|
Corrections? Comments?
Send them to me - concrit would also be appreciated (first tab, after all)
Did my best to make it make sense. If I failed somewhere, please let me know.
I would be more than happy to fix things to make this tab clearer.
I realize that the ending as I have tabbed may be confusing, so let me know what can be
for improvement.
