C6 x 3 7 x x x

Cmaj7 x 3 5 4 5 3

E5 0 2 2 x x x

G5 3 5 5 x x x

Okay… if you can play octaves, this is the easiest song
on the record. It’s bass part is prominent and important
so i’ll tab it.

G|—–4——-2——|
D|———2-4—4—-| repeat thru pretty much the whole song.
A|-2-2—————-| of course, you gotta change chords when
E|——————–| the guitar does…

Verse:
you…….. you you

you…….. you you

you…….. you you

you…….. you get me so

high and i don’t know

why

See, i told you… easy.
Sing the verse once, and then anchor one
guitarist on a B5 while the other does this:

e|————————————|
B|————————————|
G|-4—6—8—4-6-8—9–11—9—–|
D|-x—x—x—x-x-x—x—x—x—–|
A|-2—4—6—2-4-6—7—9—7—–|
E|————————————|

and of course:
Superstar swearing the love’ll get back (x times)

and the outro:

> > > > > > >
[/] [/] [/] [/] [/] [/] [/] [///]

As with all of ‘em, listen to the CD for chord changes…

verse:
D5 F#m (or F#5) D5 F#m
and I need my cigarettes, when I write your novelettes

it’s the same thing every time, pine and pray for your six-nine

and I need one single truth cashin in your kissing booth
it’s the same thing anyway, dream and doubt the day away

chorus:
today
everybody knows it’s you

everybody blows it too

oh yeah oh yeah oh yeah

it’s comin on strong

hypnotizing me this long

Intro: 4 bars of drums… and:

[G(6)] [G(6)]

e|--------------0--0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0--0-------|
B|--0--0--0-0------0-0--0--0--0-0--0--0--0--0-0--------|
G|------------------------------------0--0--0-0--------|
D|-------------------2--2-------------2--2--2-2--------|
A|----(2)-2-2---3--3-3--3-----2-2--2--3--3--3-3--------|
E|--3--3--3-3--------------3--3-3--3-------------------|

Note: the intro not exact… just understand the point,
which is use the G(6) and Cmaj7 chords listed below
strumming in a gentle rythym. for the right hand,
i use my thumb to sort of strum the bass notes and
i use my index and middle fingers to grab the notes
on the b and e strings. sorry if that’s confusing
but you’ll figure it out, i’m sure. this same method
is used in the verse also. most important: be relaxed!

that said, this guitar pops up a couple of bars after
the above guitar… heavily distorted, but volume low:

[(G6)] [(Cmaj7)]

e|-------------------------------------------------|
B|--7-(7)--7----7-------5----5---5-----------------|
G|--9^11-(11)-(11)------7^9-(9)-(9)----------------| repeat
D|-------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------| 

Note: that’s right… hendrix style oblique bends! hopefully
you understand these, but if you don’t no big deal. i’ll
try to explain. for the G6 bend, finger the 7th fret
of the b string with your left index finger.
next, finger the 9th fret g string with your left
ring finger. strum both strings simultaneously, and
bend the g string up with your ring finger (i recommend
reinforcing the bend with your middle finger) bend
the g string up one whole step, until it rings the same
pitch as the b string… that’s an oblique bend.

Verse: pretty straightfoward, here’s the shapes:

[G(6)]0 0
0 0
0 0
0 2
3 x

they alternate every bar.
at times in the verse, they’ll throw in:
high e: 0 2 3 2 0

chorus: one guitar strums the chords, one plays the octaves.
w/distortion… don’t use verse shapes, use these:

3 [D/F#]3 3 0 0
3 3 3 0 0
0 2 0 0 4
0 0 2 0 5
x x 2 2 3
3 2 0 3 x

octaves part:
G D/F# Em7 G6 Cmaj7 (and a bar of just Cmaj7)

e|-------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------|
G|-12----11-------9-----7-----4/4---4--------------| repeat
D|--x-----x-------x-----x-----x/x---x--------------|
A|-10-----9-------7-----5-----2/3---3--------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------|

hard song to explain… you’ll figure it out.

verse-with fig. 1

i’m so sensitive to light
i may never get it right all the bloody
stupid miracles and lies guess it’s up to
you to have it exorcised

i’m not sure about these chords….

what did i do?
nothing is true
whatever is over now
sober is over now
