summerteeth tab


Recommended Posts

how do you play the part right before "its just a dream he keeps having" I know its switches to maybe 3 different versions of an F# chord or something from seeing him play it at the show

 

 

Here's the tab I have, hope it helps.

Intro E C#m F# A

[E]Like a cloud

[G#]His fingers explode

[A]On the typewriter ribbon

[F#]The shadow grows

[E]His heart's in a [C#m]bowl behind the [F#]bank [A D]

[E]And every evening

[G#]when he gets home

[A]To make his supper and

[F#]eat it alone

[E]His black shirt cries

While his shoes get [F#m]cold

[A]It just a dream he keeps [E]having [C#m F#m]

And it doesn't seem to [G#m]mean [E]anything [C#m F#m]

And it doesn't seem to [G#m]mean [E]anything

[E]One summer

[G#]a suicide

[A]Another autumn

[F#]a traveler's guide

[E]He hits snooze [C#m]twice before he [F#]dies

[E]And every evening

[G#]when he gets home

[A]To make his supper and

[F#]eat it alone

[E]His black shirt [bm]cries

While his shoes get [F#m]cold

[A]It just a dream he keeps [E]having [C#m F#m]

And it doesn't seem to [G#m]mean [E]anything

[C#m]Its just a dream he keeps [F#m]having

B C Em F Fm C Em F AM D Am D G

[G]He feels lucky to

have you here

[C]In his kitchen

[A]in your chair

[G]Sometimes he for[D]gets that you're even [A]there

[G]It just a dream[D] he keeps [G]having [Em Am]

And it [D]doesn't seem to [bm]mean [G]anything [Em Am]

[Em]It just a dream he keeps [Am]having D G

[Em]It just a dream [Am]

And it [D]doesn't seem to [bm]mean [G]anything Em A D G

Here's your answer:

 

F#min F#min/F F#min/E B(or F#min/D#)

 

Also:

it doesn't seem to mean anything part:

 

It's not so much a G#min as a B with a walkdown: B B/A B/G# B/F#

hmm, which part is this? Cause the lead guitar has multiple riffs in the song.

 

Mike this is the solo, which on the album sounds like it was done by multiple overdubs of various organs and things. Live however, Bennett played this on guitar... I'm basing this tab after the version played at the last Lounge Axe show

 

I know what you're saying about the riffs throughout the song. I dont have those 100%, but most seem to be simply arpegiating the chords, often sliding up to the chord shape from one fret below. I can get pretty close, but I haven't taken the time to tab it out. Let me take another run through it, and I'll see what I can do for tabbing some more of it out.
