Great song! =-=-=-=-=-=-=-= If you haven't heard this one, GET IT! James sings and written by: plays acoustic and slide, D'arcy on Bass, Kerry on Drums, James Iha and Nina Gordon steps in from fellow Chicago band, Veruca tabbed by: Salt... Good Song. Davey B./Toast Soo.. Git your acoustic out, and git yer friend a slide and go to it! (tab is represented as normal tuning...) -- v's and ^'s are picking direction (v's=down towards ground) -- If there big gaps in the tab where you know he's strumming, yes I know he's strumming. I just thought it would look bad and consume time.

    Lover, can't find you, and noone knows what brings us here.

A few measures of G chords end the song... And, yes, improvise for what I purposely left out, like go crazy with a solo with the slide during the song. It's easy to find a solo in this happy little melody... Thanks go out to Brian McCall for setting me straight on Obscured. Somehow, I do think that Billy managed to keep normal tuning... -Davey B.

|-------------------------------------------------------------|

Through the verse there is more lead stuff...really easy. Guitar 1 plays the above main section twice and then it goes to this:

|---0--0-0-0--------------------------------------------------|
|---0--0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-3-3-3-3-3--1-1-1--1-1-1--1-1-1--------|

|-0-0--0-0-0--------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 1 does all the above through the verses behind James' and Nina's parts. When it gets to the "Lover..when.." it does this twice.

|---------------------------------0--------------------------|
|------------------3-3--3-3--1-1--1--------------------------|
|----0----------0--2-2--2-2--0-0--0--------------------------|

 Then to this.

|----12-------------------(12)-------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|

Then it goes back to the verse riff simile, but changes on the last bar before it changes to this

|---0--0-0-0--------------------------------------------------|
|---0--0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-3-3-3-3-3--3-3-3--3-3-----------------|

|-2-2--2-2-2-0-0-0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0--0-0-0--0-0-----------------|
|-0-0--0-0-0--------------------------------------------------|

Then to this "Now you know.." bit.
|------------------3-------------3----------------------------|
|------------------1--1-1--1-1-1-1--1-1--1-1-1----------------|
|----0----------0--0--0-0--0-0-0-0--0-0--0-0-0----------------|

|-3--3--3--3--3-3---------------------------------------------|
                 *\Repeat this section a few times/*

 Then just play an A for two bars with this lead over the top
               _     _
|---17b-15b-14b-r-14b-r---------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------------------------------------------------------|

Back into the "lover.." bit. In the middle there somewhere it drops down to that B type chord, (x2003x) but then drops straight back to the G Then the "Now you know.." bit as above. Then until the end it alternates netween those two G's. (3x0003) amd (320003)

 The little run thing is something like this.
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------2/5---------------------------------------------------|
|--3h5-------------------------------------------------------|

That is pretty much it...now, I see this as a fairly complete tab except for those lead bits...but most of it is here!! Please send me comments. This wasn't a simple tab because of all the slight variations that I had to tab, so it took me awhile. I hope you appreciate it :) Adam [email protected]
