Jmendel Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 FYI - In February's edition of Acoustic Guitar Magazine features a tabbed out version "I'm the Man Who Loves You" for acoustic guitar. Check it out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moss Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 It's a pretty sparse tab, I was much more excited until I actually saw it. I think I could have easily figured out what's in there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GtrPlyr Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I hate when they have those half-assed tabs: Here's the chords and a couple of licks, now go to it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think it might just be there interpretation but I have not tried it with the album yet. It's really just 2 measures of the intro (capo on 1st fret) and 2 interpretations of a few riffs. Let me save you the trouble: E7, A7, B7, A Then there's an F# on occasion. It does say Words and Music by Jay Bennett so Jay did not get ignored. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

anthony Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Let me save you all the trouble. I saw the zine in the store yesterday. It essetntially shows this riff: (E) Riff: e---------------------- B---00--3333--22--0---- G---11--1111--11--1---- D---22--2222--22--2---- A---22--2222--22--2---- E---------------------- or a slight variation thereof. Then gives the chords: (E) All I can see is black and white and white and pink with blades of blue That lay between the words I think on a page I was meaning to send (A) you I couldn't tell if it would bring my heart the way I wanted when I started (E) Writing this letter to you (B) But if I could you know I would just hold your hand and you'd understand (A) I'm the man who (E) loves you (E) All I can be is a busy bee of spinning wheels and hands that feel For stones to throw and feet that run but come back home (A) It makes no difference ever known, makes no difference ever known (E) to me (B) But if I could you know I would just hold your hand and you'd understand (A) I'm the man who (E) loves you E A E B F# A E (E) All I can see is black and white and white and pink with blades of blue That lay between the words I think on a page I was meaning to send (A) you I couldn't tell if it would bring my heart the way I wanted when I started (E) Writing this letter to you (B) But if I could you know I would just hold your hand and you'd understand (F#) If I could you know I would just hold your hand and you'd understand (A) If I could you know I would just hold your hand and you'd understand I'm the man who (F#) loves you (A) I'm the man who (F#) loves you (A) I'm the man who (E) loves you Nothing to get excited about (other than the fact that a major magazine mentioned the existence of our favorite band).

Moss Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 True, could have been yet another tab of "Sweet Home Alabama". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
