Henry & The H Bombs

[Gobias Industries]

Henry & The H Bombs
tabbed by pt
based off of Tweedy solo shows

You have G chords, C chords, and D chords.

G  C  D
-3- -0- -2-
-3- -1- -3-
-0- -0- -2-
-0- -2- -0-
-2- -3- -0-
-3- --- ---

Ah, yes, it sounds more than that live, right?  Well, here's the trick:

Whenever you do a G, you want to toss in this little lick:

------3
-3----3
-2h4h20
------0
------2
------3

Whenever you do a C, you want to toss in this little lick

------0
------1
------0
-0h2p0
------2
------3

And when you chance upon a D, you have two options:

-2----2
-3----3
-2h4p2
-0---0
------
------

or:
-2----2
-3----3
-0----2
-0---0
------
------

You also want to do walk-ups from your G to your C, pretty much every time you move from [G] to [C]:

The bottom two strings, the rest are unnecessary:
A--0-2
E-3---


And the chords:

[G]-[C]-[D]-[G]-[C]-[D]

[G]
Down in the basement
				   [C]
Stands his brother on a fender bass guitar when
				 [D]
We were looking for a suitable replacement
	[G]
To play for Henry and the H-Bombs

					 [C]
I can't remember don't know where we got the name from
					[D]
All I know is that we've been together too long
					   [G]
I can't make it with Henry and the H-Bombs

					   [C]
Don't you know he comes on about the flowers
				  [G]
He can talk for hours and for hours
		  [D]
About the rain and the showers
			   [G]
But his whole trip is a power

	  [C]
So get along in the meanwhile
									   [G]   
Cause heaven knows it could change in a wing while
[D]
That's no way to treat your boy
[D] (pause)
Halfway faking it, halfway taking it
[G]
Henry and the H-Bombs

					  [C]
I can't remember don't know where we got the name from
					[D]
All I know is that we've been together too long
					   [G]
I ain't making it with Henry and the H-Bombs

					   [C]
Don't you know he comes on about the flowers
				  [G]
He can talk for hours and for hours
		  [D]
About the rain and the showers
			   [G]
But his whole trip is a power

	  [C]
So get along in the meanwhile
									   [G]   
Cause heaven knows it could change in a wing while
[D]
That's no way to make love
[D] (pause)
Halfway faking it, halfway taking it
[G]
Henry and the H-Bombs

[G]-[C]-[D]-[G]

 

There you go! There's probably a couple of mistakes/misalignments of chords, just let me know.
