Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

(Don't strum the open low chord with any of the

chords until the end when you pluck it. You'll understand when you

listen to the song)

Chorus

if that's what you want to call it this part is hard to

explain):

go into B7 and pluck the B string then play B7

pluck F# and then play B7 chord

then repeat

pluck B string play B7 chord

pluck F# string then play B7

pluck G then play G chord

pluck open A string hammer down on B pluck B play B7

pluck play

Pluck G string play G chord string

pluck E string release and let open D resonate

pluck B let open A resonate

go back and pluck B string play B7 chord

pluck F# then Go Back into the Verse chords

Well that was a Bitch to explain and I hope you understand. Take my

advice and listen while you play this will help on learning this

wonderful song!

Here are the lyrics:

Alcohol leaving me dry

now it is time for pie

taking them as they come

Alcohol please give me some

This one was a pain to figure out since it is tuned way the hell down.

Tuned down one and a half steps to be exact. I have seen him do this live

and he doesn't tune down, so you don't really have to either, but if you

want to play along with One Foot In The Grave, it's kinda neccecary.

Chord Voicings:

Your brains went black when she took back her mouth

and put it out into the sun

The birds did fly when the heavens all went dry

And the cigarettes are smokin by themselves

Chorus

She'll do anything

She'll do anything

She'll do anything to make you feel like an asshole

Call her name, she looks the same as you

question mark stretched across the skin

She dangles carrots, makes you feel embarressed

to be the fool you know you are

(Chorus)

That's basically it!

Later!

That's basically it. Don't worry about wether or not your guitar is exactly

in tune when playing this. Beck's never is. :)

Here's the song off of the DGC rarities CD....the song is called Bogusflow

(duh)

Monkey see, monkey die

Laminate your face and paste it up into the sky

Cause it's squallin' and it's solid and it's

Completely rancid and beautiful,

Like a forcefield of multiplying meat,

Cut a hole in the floor just to see

Just how close to hell we're standing.

Time shoots forward in your skull

Scattered to the four winds, trapped in a bucket

Riding lamposts moldy toast

Excitement level.....zero

Rock the casba (sp?) bring the noise

Amplified dishwashers exploring the boring to the core

people with cordless personalities

runnin round in new wave bionic jogging suits

California....white boy sound

Rocket powered and nailed to the ground

New age old age, totally lame

Straight to the middle of the road

Rewind the tape, play the whole thing backwards

with the sound completely turned off

Every once in a while....when i play the G chord (it sounds best to play the

standard chords, not power chords) i strum it a few times then hammer on

the note on the A string....listen to the song and maybe you'll understand

what i'm talking about. It's not critical, but it adds to the song.

A lot of times i suck at guitar tabs, so if i've got anything wrong write me

and tell me, or if ya just wanna say "good job, here's 5 bucks" you can do

that too. :^)

later,

For the the chords on this song I find it best to play the chords by

sliding chords with open strings up. For instance for A,A#,B,C and C#

I play the A chord up the neck. I do the same on the E string except

when I play the normal G chord. I don't know whether it's tuned up or

down. Some of the lyrics are probably wrong but then, you never know

with Beck. (I've put the lyrics that I'm pretty sure are wrong but

can't work out anyway in brackets. If anyone knows them then lucky

you.) Most of chords last for one bar, where they only last half a

bar I've put (1/2) after them, it probably just makes things more

confusing.

4 bars of A# (listen to the song to get the rythm)

(Of all the golden) things to be,

I got a garden hose and a colour TV,

I got time on my hands,

I got time on my hands,

Nobody cares,

What I do,

(Of all the golden) things to do,

I got a burnt orange peel (and a fish in a stew),

I got work to get done,

I got work to get done,

Nobody knows,

Where to run,

I got a quart of milk and some (sound advice),

Don't give me the blues,

Nobody knows,

(What we give),

Back and forth dodge and fly,

Like vender in the sky,

Might be out of change,

Give me all your cash,

Nobody knows,

So let's just go home,

(ends with lots of different chords and mutes)

Main cords , , ,

I hate to do this but you're a pain in the neck

I thought you knew this , you're handing me a canceled cheque

And you've been moanin', you're girlfriends think you're a saint

I'll give you a quarter , I'll keep my judgments to my self

I get caught up in the moonlight

reaching out for a rotten egg

I don't wanna bay, it's crystal clear, you're time is nearly gone

You're building your mansion, it's something you ought to avoid

You've got momentum, building out in the void

The stormy weather, the kid's are makin a racket

You got some magic, conjuring your chaos too

I get......(same)

Cyanide Breath Mint by Beck can be found on the disc One Foot in the

Grave.

It's tuned down to D, so it's

I just wrote the chords down as if the guitar were in E. This seems

to matchup pretty well with the CD, so just listen and strum as you see fit.

Definitely, this is the wrong place to be

there's blood on the futon,

there's a kid drinkin' fire.

Goin' down to the sea,

they got people to meet,

lookin' out for themselves.

When they ask you for credit,

give them a branch.

When they want you to get it,

chew on the grass.

I know, I know

'cause they told me to tell you

there's nothing to tell you,

there's nothing to sell you.

(Same chords as first part)

In the afternoon, riding the scapegoat,

burning equipment, decomposing.

Cool off your jets,

take off your sweats,

I got a funny feeling

they got plastic in the afterlife.

(Same chords as second part:)

When they want you to cry,

leap into the sky.

When they suck your mind,

like a pigeon you fly.

I know, I know,

it's the positive people

running from their time

looking for some feeling.

Intro

There's not really any chords, just the bass playing the intro =

but this is how i play it:

Verse 1

Somethings wrong cause my mind is fading

And everywhere I look theres a dead end waiting

Temperatures droppin at the rotten oasis

stealing kisses from the lepers faces

Intro 4x

Heads are hangin from the garbage man trees

mouthwash jukebox gasoline

pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets =

smiling eyes whipping out of their sockets

for that little synth. part do this:

w/bass doing intro in background

Chorus

Got a devil's haircut in my mind (x 4)

the little ending figure at the end of the chorus goes something like this:

Verse 2

Lovin' machines on the sympathy crutches

discount orgies on the dropout buses

hitchin a ride with the bleedin' noses

comin to town with the brief case blues

the synth part:

Chorus

then for the little interlude do this for awhile:

for the 3rd verse you can just play the =

intro along with the bass or the synth part:

(you have to listen real closely to hear the synth)

for the 1st 2 lines of the verse play this

for the 3rd line play the same thing on the D string

for the 4th line go back to A string =

you really have to listen to get a feel for this

play the chorus chords over the feedback

back to chorus

w/ending figure

play intro along with ending figure for first 2 bars =

then drop the ending figure while he's screaming

the last time he screams drop the guitar

And that's it!

I play open chords throughout this songs

I just love tabbing obscure Beck songs! Here's one off of the Loser single,

and IMHO, one of the best Beck songs ever...

Tune your bass to Drop D and tune your guitar down 1 whole step.

"My friend picked me up..."

3:

4: 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 /5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5

play that 3x then

1:

2:

3:

4: 3 3 3 3 2 2 2 2 3 3 3 3 2 2 2 2

That was pretty much the bassline for this entire part...the guitar plays

feedback during that part, then for the chorus it does this:

"There's a Fume"

The Heavy part is pretty much this:

with the corresponding bassline.

I ain't got no inclination

Give away my sweet sensation

Sleepin in an old toolshed

Scumbag cryin on his pillow

{:Chorus:}

When you wanna be with me then we will see who's fuckin with my head

Found myself in New Orleans

With a scarecrow in my jeans

Beat my forehead through the ceiling

Drank my coffee with a hubcap

Float upon my checkout boots

Floating by you on the bayou

Now talkin on a walkie talkie

Credit card glued to my hand.

Yet another beautiful acoustic Beck tune, from his essential independent

release, One Foot In The Grave. It's a simple tune, so learn it quick and

impress the one you secrectly love(you can substitue "girl" with "boy" if

that's your gig, y'know?). Maybe they'll love you for it.

You're just the girl of my dreams

But it seems my dreams never come true

You're just the girl of my dreams

But it seems my dreams never come true

I first met you down on Lover's Lane

The birds were insane flapping all about

Softly you would sing swinging in your swing

It wasn't night it wasn't day

(repeat chorus x2)

(silent refrain x2)

(repeat chorus x1)

Thank you.

Here's a sprawling yet immensely jolly epic from the current "Slack

Laureate" of these United States: Beck. If you liked "Mexico", this one's

for you. You can hear this cut on his cassette-only release from a few

years back, Golden Feelings, released on the independent label Sonic Enemy.

This will have to do until the new DGC album hits the streets, huh? By the

way, I've placed the chords over the lyric that marks the progression.

However, the last time I uploaded a file to Nevada, things shifted out of

place. Beware and enjoy.

Spoken word intro:

What we're talking about here is kind of a...it's a...Heartland Feeling.

Mellencamp, you know, kind of a Mellen-feeling.

Ok. What you gotta get together is a Heartland folk singer:

John Couger Mellencamp, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Seeger;

That type of feeling: a Mellen-feeling.

You know, a real powerful, approving music

Of a Heartland quality, just powerful straight-forward music.

And if you can't get just the right type of feeling

Find someone who will pass and change them.

Old Man Johnson got his head in his hand

Makin' his way across state in a fiddlin' band

With his hair all down in his eyes

And the microphone all covered with flies.

When he gets done playin' goes back to his room

Climbs into bed in his cowboy boots

And he picks up a magazine turns on the TV

Lights a cigar as he's fallin' asleep.

Well he's only a person...who doesn't know shit.

Yeah nothing happenin'...that's about it.

Yeah......

Well, little Rosanna came from Texarkana

Had fourteen dollars wrapped in a bandana.

Came into town not lookin' for much

Well she found a hound dog and she named him "Dutch."

She got a job at the arcade takin' quarters

But she was never too good at takin' orders

So one night she stopped givin' out change

She kicked the boss in the chin and unplugged the games.

She's only a person...who doesn't know shit.

Nothin' happenin'...That's about it.

Ooh, ooh. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Sam got canned at the cannery

He punched out the clock that night.

His knuckle was bleeding as he walked home,

He was cold and he had a headache.

Well his wife was cookin' canned beans,

He took out all the money out of his jeans

And he set it on fire in the kitchen sink

As his wife handed him a drink.

He was only a person...who didn't know shit.

Nothin' happenin'...that's about it.

Uh, yeah, oh. Wooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...

Smiley was lookin' for handouts

sleepin' in a abandoned lighthouse.

Down at the mini-mall shakin' his hat

Washin' windows with his bare hand.

He found a sports car with the keys

In the ignition it just seemed so easy.

He took a joyride drove into a hedge

Came out with the steering wheel wrapped around his head.

Well he's only a person...who doesn't know shit.

Nothin' happenin'...that's about it.

Ooh, ooh, yeah, yeah.

Well Jane was born in a small town

Everybody just standing around.

They had bingo games and a raffle,

everybody chewin' tobacco.

Well she grew up kinda restless

All her boyfriends wanted to be dentists(dead-ass?).

And she got a job at the truck stop

And she got all fast and never did what she wanted

And she's only a person...who doesn't know shit.

Nothing happenin'...that's about it.

Yeah, yeah, yo...

Oh yeah...oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh.

(Note: for the words, I used the main voice and ignored the background

one which sings something slightly different here and there.)

Intro

>From these shores where we belong

I have seen the land beyond

Where the lord is strange and strong

I have seen the land beyond

There's no telling who'll be dead

When the pale horse is turning red

And their tongues will burn in vain

And everything will feel the same

There's no patience there's no peace

I have seen the land beyond

Where the gravestones never cease

I have seen the land beyond

Through the troubles of the years

A heavenly apparition appears

And we're haunted by our own minds

And the spirit calls in the skies

From these shores where we belong

I have seen the land beyond

I'll be there and I'll be gone

I have seen the land beyond

This was kinda a spur of the moment type thing, but I was listening to One

Foot In The Grave this afternoon, and this track came on, and listening I

thought "this is easy as shit!" so I grabbed my guitar and tabbed it out.

Lyrics:

Well there aint nobody left to impress

and everyone's kissing their own hands

its 666 on the kichen floor

aint no fire in the pan

i get lonesome (4x)

so glad to be a slab

stiff as a stick on a board

i get thoughts and dirty socks

piled in the corner

i get lonesome (4x)

Getting fat on your own fears

bring that beer over here

i stomp on the ground

just to make a sound

i get lonesome

The entire song works with just G and C. =

here are the words. =

Well its all in your mind

its all in your mind

its all in your mind

its all in your mind

And i wanted to be

And i wanted to be

your good friend

well i can not believe

youve got a devil up your sleeve

and hes talking to me

and i can not believe

and i wanted to be

and i wanted to be

your good friend

well you're all scared and stiff

a sick stolen gift

and the people you're with

are all scared and stiff

and i wanted to be

and i wanted to be

your good friend

acoustic guitar

basically just two chords....

I been driftin' along in the same stale shoes

Loose ends tyin' the noose in the back of my mind

If you thought that you were makin' your way

To where the puzzles and pagans lay

Put it together

It's a strange invitation

that should give you the idea. when you listen to the part with just vox

and guitar, you can hear it well.

note: play all these chords as bar chords on the low E string

(play open E chord).

Verse

You only got one finger left and it's pointin' at the door

And you're takin' for granted what the lord's laid on the floor

So I'm pickin' up the pieces and I'm puttin' them up for sale

Throw your meal ticket out the window, put your skeletons in jail

Chorus

Cuz lord only knows it's gettin' late

Your senses are gone so don't you hesitaeeyaeeyate

To get yourself a job

Let your bottom dollars fall

Throwin' your two-bit cares down the drain

(little drum break)

hammer-ons and pull-offs on the fifth and seventh frets of the B string,

ending up with a slide to the ninth fret.

Interlude

Aurele aurele aurele aurele

goin' back to houston....

I think that the fuzzy guitar you hear in the front throughout the song is

just playing the root notes of the chords. I didn't really try to figure it

out, though.

A fairly simple song, nonetheless, there was a request so:

It's in drop D, so, do all that.

The intro/verse part is played with a slide and goes as follows

That continues over and over through out.

The other part, that is played over the slide part is as

follows:

And that is also repeated over and over at different parts.

Ok, this is a simplified version of "mexico", beck's song on the Rare on Air

compilation album. It's missing the cool little solo parts in it, but i'm

not THAT good at guitar yet. if anyone knows them, please post em!!!

Come gather round me people, here's a story you never heard

Bout me and my friends and some things that occured

Thought we'd get some money, we thought that me might go

Spent the weekend pleasant, down in mexico

I was workin at Mcdonalds, doing the late night run

when a car pulled up the drive thru and pointed out a gun

said gimme all your money, and three big macs to go

I stuffed them all in a sack and i ducked down below

Well the boss was angry when he found out that i didn't call the police

I guess i was kinda nervous there was a warrant out on me

concerning some jaywalkin tickets i couldn't afford to pay

needless to say i got the axe that same day

Well me being outta work just then, i couldn't afford to go home

mom said if i lost this job i've have to go out on my own

so i went over to dave's house and i got really stoned

called up some girls but none of them were home

Steve came over and he brought some alcohol

we all got really depressed, just staring at the wall

we thought we'd get some money, we thought that we might go

spent the weekend pleasant, down in mexico

Steve's dad had a huntin rifle, and we went and picked it up

we stopped at a 7-11 to try out our luck

we pulled out that huntin rifle, but the counter guy just laughed

as he pulled out an uzi, we turned and hauled ass.

We ran so fast, till we came to the Mcdonalds where i used to work

we walked up to the drive thru and gave my boss a jerk

said give us all you money and 3 big macs to go

and suck on this you weasel, we're going to mexico

When we got there we got really wasted, dave got a case of the runs

we all got hungover and we were getting low on funds

steve and dave called there parents and took the bus back home.

me I got a job at Mcdonalds.....down in Mexico

I suck at tabs so if this is wrong tell me.

anything will do, but his earlier/rarer stuff would be great.....and we need

lyrics too!!!

Most chords last 1 bar, where they only last 1/2 a bar I've put (1/2).

Starts with 4 bars of G

You came, you went,

My mind it got a dent,

I couldn't make my rent,

'Cause all my cash was lent,

This town is filled,

With thousand dollar bills,

Laminated songs,

Contaminated loans,

Well we eat about fifteen times a day,

Staring through a bag of fritolet,

And I play with the fire in the stove,

When my eyes peel out and my fingertips get cold,

Well it's real and it's fake,

And it's flaming like a steak,

And she's puttin' out my face,

With the rake,

Oh honey you knew,

That you were,

My one and only blur,

Unglued, depressed,

The meatloaf in my chest,

Personality test,

I failed with the best,

And I stomped and I stormed,

And I passed out in your dorm,

When you hussled me outside,

I couldn't catch a ride,

Will the subway train speak to me now,

I'm browsing through the supermarket town,

And the girls don't talk when I'm around,

I'm feeling bad even though nothing's wrong. G G C

choking on a breathmint

I'm going to put lyrics in here just so that you know where the chords

are supposed to go. I'm not saying these are the actual lyrics, just

the way I hear them.

I'm not sure whether this is played on guitar or on distorted bass. I'm

guessing there's probably a little bit of both. Play everything as power

chords, and distort as much as much as possible. Have fun.

Because I matched the chords with the words it may be a little hard to

follow along with (and may be off, too) so here's the tab for how these

parts go.

Chorus

Bridge

(just feedback and noise here)

Oh no

You know Homey don't play that game

Why should you give a shit

Hey mister asshole

What you dirty asshole

Sittin' in your castle

Judging everyone

You're actin like it's chill

When the deal's gettin' ill

Why don't you break your brace on my head

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Total paranoia

Tryin to annoy ya

Everything I do is to try to fuck you up

Screwdriver drillin'

How served spasm

Drunk stove on the situation dude

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

Everyone's out to get you motherfucker

(bridge)

(repeatedly) untill...

She+s a Nite-Mare hippy girl....

Repeat the above progession for each line..untill...

self-conscious and a little bit.......moody

Then go back to the begining...

The ending is:

For all that it+s worth

That's it....

and then repeats.

Intro riff

For the little harmonica bit, the notes are E and A.

For the distorted part, just play the same things but with a

distorted bass playing the root notes an octave lower.

Repeat the intro riff, then make a lot of noise.

I'm not going to tab out the synth bit at the end, but if anyone else

wants to, feel free to add it.

I'm only going to do two of the parts here, the main riff and what the

bass is playing during the chorus. I'm not going to try to figure out

the slide bits, I would just screw around in B for those parts and see

what you get. Here's enough to get you started though.

During the chorus, the bass plays E D B, descending from the 7th fret

on the A string. You play the E and D notes something like eight times

each, and the B like 15 or 16. At the end of the song, the bass just

moves up the neck from B. Enjoy.

This CD is wicked cool. If you like Beck BUY IT RIGHT NOW!!

This is one of the best songs on the CD, IMHO. The guitar is

acoustic and in the background. This sorta sounds wrong when you

play it along with the CD, but I think Beck might tune down or

something like that like he usually does. Anyway, if anyone

knows a better way to play this, please post it!

Ozzy, ozzy, ozzy, ozzy..

And you just play that for the whole song. If anyone knows the

lyrics, please e-mail them to me, or post them.

This song comes from the One Foot in the Grave album on K records.

If you don't have it, I would highly recomend its immediate purchase.

These chords are played by hitting the lowest note first followed by a

few strums, and that pattern is repeated. Your best bet is to listen to

the CD for the exact rhythm. Also, there may be some pulloffs/hammerons

around the A chord (Perhaps a second guitar?). Anyway, this is pretty

much it. Any corrections or additions will be greatly appreciated.

Intro

I wake up and look upon your painted eyelids

The world is your oyster and the trashbags are your kids

The ceiling is invisible there's a bird sinkin through the sky

and every hour that passes is teachin me how to cry

Chorus

kind of):

Cuz it's lonely here in the ugly part of town

the buildings are all vacant and the telephones are down

There's a police siren singin like a tiger with no skin

the sewer drain is glowin and I don't know what state I'm in

And the river is on fire and there's chemicals and debris

All the roads are blocked off it's just too hard to see

So cancel my appointment and set up a whole new show

'Cuz I'm in need of a good hot meal and a life to call my own

(Harmonica solo over verse chords 1x)

So get me a plate of money and get me a blanket and a chair

The limitations are limitless they're floating through the air

'Cuz it's real and it's true the things I see in you

And there's nothin that I wouldn't talk about with the clearest

dream that ever drifted by...

Fade on verse chords with harmonica and sounds

Hope you enjoy it

-Zak Watson

tonight the city is full of whores

and all the toilets are overflowing

there's shopping malls coming out of the walls

as we walk out among the manure

that's why

I pay no mind

give the finger to the rock and roll singer

as he's dancing upon your paycheck

the sales climb high through the garbage pail sky

like a giant dildo crushing the sun

that's why

I pay no mind

I sleep in slime

I just got signed

so get out your lead pipe pipe dreams

get out your ten-foot flags

the insects are huge and the poison's all been used

and the drugs won't kill your day job

that's why

I pay no mind

This is another terriffic song off of Stereopathetic Soul Manure. Really, I

can't say enough nice things about this CD...GET IT, GET IT, GET IT!!!!

ashtray

for the butt

Chorus

Well I'm puttin it down

Well you're not picking it up

Well I'm puttin it down but you

treat me like a clown and I don't

wanna be funny

Fat chance

glued to the wall like a centerfold

of an old cannonball

will you put me inside

your TV tonite cause you're treatin' me

like a rerun

(chorus)

So what

I just lost my job at the hut.

My ass got cut.

but I'll be better at kissin'

When my teeth are all missin'

And the silverware's burnt

and I'm eatin' with my fingers

(chorus)

Chord Progression

/ /// / / /// /

Intro

repeat again and again over verses and chorus

lyrics are as follows (by memory, sorry if anything's wrong):

you've been so long

your blind eyes are gone

your old bones are on their own

so take off your coat

put a song in your throat

let the deadbeats pound all around

Chorus

we will go

nowhere we know

we don't have to talk at all (till we find our one and all)

hand me downs

fly paper towns

stuck together one and all

bargains you drag

buckets and bags

and all your belongings

your train's in the sand

ramshackle land

let the rats watch the races

Chorus

after the chorus this is that weird little solo thing.

then comes that strange strumming part. Use some power chords. it

seems to sound different every time. i like to use Ab, Bb and D.

praises get spent

your trick face is bent

pigsties and prizes

cause there's no kind of well

you're suiting yourself

you leave yourself behind

Chorus

finish with the solo twice again

Intro

Hit an open D string and strum D a few times, repeat twice.

Verses

The chords are as follows: A\\E\\G\\D\\ Strike the low

string of each chord once before strumming a few times. Timing is as

follows.

Row----boat, row me to the shore

She----don't, want to be my friend no more

Chorus

Hold strumming the last D chord from the end of the verse then

go into a C\G\\\\D\\\\ until the last line which changes to a

Pick me up--, give me some food to eat

In your truck--, playing the radio

I'll be home--, talking to nobody

You'll be strange, you'll be far away

This is a cool song off one of Beck's indie albums, Stereopathetic Soul

Manure. If you don't have it, I suggest getting it. The chord progression

is the same throughout the song, except they add a banjo at some point.

Since I don't play banjo, or have any desire to, I will just give you the chords.

Chord Voicings:

Satan gave me a taco and it made me really sick

The chicken was all raw and the grease was mighty thick

The rice was all rancid and the beans were so hard

I was getting kinda dizzy eatin' all the lard

There was aphids on the lettuce and I ate every one

And after I was done the salsa melted off my tongue

Pieces of tortilla got stuck in my throat

And the stains on my clothes burned a hole through my coat

My stomach was tremblin' and I broke out in a rash

I was so dry and thirsty and I didn't have no cash

So I went and found a hose tore off all my clothes

Turned on the water and it shot right up my nose

Some old lady came along and she flat out was a freak

So she beat me with her handbag 'til I could hardly speak

I was lying there naked my body badly bruised

In a pool of my own blood unconscious and confused

When the cops came and got me and threw me in their van

And I woke up on the ceiling and I couldn't find my hand

They took me to the judge his eyes were glowing red

The courtroom was filled with witches and the dead

The sheriff was a hell-hound with fangs and claws

The prisoners were tied up and chained to the walls

The air was getting thick the smoke was getting thicker

The judge read the verdict said Cut off his head

Well they placed me on the altar they raised up the axe

My head was about to explode when I noticed the Marshall stacks

I noticed all the smoke machines cameras and lights

Some guy with a microphone runnin' around dancin' in tights and I noticed

The crew and the band playin' down below

And I realized I was in a rock'n'roll [video]

So I went and joined the band and I went out on tour

And I smoked a lot of heroin and I passed out in manure

I made out with the groupies started fires backstage

Made a lot of money and I gave it all away

Well the band got killed so i started a solo career

And I won all the awards and I drank all the beer

I opened up a taco stand just to smell the smell

Cookin' with the devil, fryin' down in hell

3: 3 5 0 1 1

There is some weird sitar stuff in the back of this, but feedback works

just fine in place of it. :)

2: 5 7 2 2 3

3: 5 5 7 2 3 3 2 2

The End!!

Ok, so my brother gave me this to add. It should be alright. It is purely

a functional tab but it is mostly correct. Any mistakes in it are

probably in my interpretation of what i have got written on paper in front

of me.

The song is in standard tunning.

There are 3 simple phrases

1.

2

3

The phrases are in the following order:

1 2 1 2 (chords start) 1 3

Repeting 1 and 3 throughout.

The chords are

for phrase 1 and 2

for phrase 3

Ok that`s it. Enjoy.

Intro

w/slide):

3: 14 7 14\ 7 (7)/(14) 14\ (14) 14

4: 14 14\(7) 7/(14) (14)\ 7 (7) (7)/(14) 14\(7) 7/(14) 14\ (7)

3: /(14) 14\ /(14) 14\ /(14) 14\ /(14) 14\ /(9)~~~

4: /(14) 14\(7) 7/(14) 14\(7) 7/(14) 14\(7) 7/(14) 14\(7) 7/(9)~~~

(turn on destortion, get some feedback, make noise, then)

Rest of song (w/out slide):

4: 7 7 /12 12 12

5: 7 7 /12 12 12

6: 5 5 /10 10 10

5: 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7

The song completely falls apart at 1 minute 28 seconds. Make noise from

there out.

i got on my strap i got fatso belt

i was jumping around it was your mother coming down

in the flick of a chick i got to take my pick

betwen a slime and a fist just a big happy dog

I'm taking morphine!!!

now im rolling in sweat with a loaf of cold bread

and a taco in my jeans on the ??? it glides

its got such a good thighs i got taken by surprise

with the flavored flavored donuts

its a cold ass fashion when she stole my passion

its an everlasting its a ghettoblasting

on the wonderwheel i got a thunderpeel

i made an effort to get just what i deserve

THE END!!

Note: The guitar on this is tuned down one step, as it is on a lot of songs

on this album. Is anyone has transcribed any more Beck songs, let me know.

The first guitar part on the verses is as follows

The second guitar part is just kind of improvised

Its just the shit kicking speed takin truck drivin

neighbors downstairs

Whiskey stained buck toothed back woods creep

Grizzly bear motherfucker never goes to sleep

Belly floppin naked in a pool of yellow sweat

Screamin jack ass with a wet cigarette

Psychotic break down double edged axe

Growin hair like a shag rug on a greasy back

ok heres the way I play whiskeyclone

Intro

i was born in this hotel

Washing dishes in the sink

magazines and free soda

Trying hard not to think

lay it all to the (dogs)

everything weve done is wrong

Ill be lonesome
