Subject: last liz phair tab for now
ok, here’s the last one. it’s probably my favorite one, but i can’t get
it to sound like it does on the album. i’m pretty sure the chords are
close, but something is missing. it might be that i don’t have any
effects;
a little chorus and delay may be what what you need to make it sound just
right. this is as close as i can get.
divorce song
————
the main theme is just variations of these crds (i think). the B is the
one that sounds a little funny. like usual, liz only plays 2 or 3 notes
are
for each crd.
i might be some notes in between the chords, i can’t quite tell.
C# Ab B Ab
e—————————-4–|
B———6——————4–|
G———–6—-5—2—–5—-| or some variation thereof. i can’t
D——-6——–6—2—–6—-| remember if the third crd is a B or a C.
A——-4—————-6——| it might be played on the 3rd fret instead
E————————4——| of the 2nd.
C# = A shape barre crd at 4th fret
Ab = E shape barre crd at 4th fret
B = A shape barre crd at 2nd fret (maybe 3rd?)
this theme is played thru all the verses.
for the chorus part…(i don’t remember if the 1st crd is F# or F#m)
F#(m?) C# G Ab G Ab
boxed it up and buried it in the ground… (3x)
e——————————————————–|
B——————————————————–|
G———————–6——————————–|
D——-4–strum-a——6–6—————————–|
A——-4–couple———-4–0—5/6–6–66–5/6–6–6–|
E——-2–times————–0—3/4–4–44–3/4–4–4–|
* **
F#(m?) C# G Ab G Ab
burned it up and thrown it away…
* = slide up a fret
**= pick down then up really fast
and for the harmonica break at the end, the crds are just
F#(m?) Ab C# or some combination of crds used above.
sorry this was kinda vague, but play it along w/ the cd and it’ll become
obvious. lemme know if you come up with anything better…
whew, that’s it for now…
