the composition of the song is similar to a ben folds style song.

do you really want to do a recording of a song thats all about getting an abortion?

why dont you just write an origional. call it, "what wormann's mom should have done."

Here is what i play. Its not totally accurate, but its mainly just the chords D, and that G chord showed below. I forget the name of it. I also did not tab the BRIDGE, but this will get you started. There are only about 3 or 4 chords used really. Enjoy.

this is main part:

VERSE:

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

Code: Select all


"And we drive...now that i....."

---------------
--3-------3---
--2-------2---
--0-------0---   X2
--2----------
----------3--

"And shes feeling more alone...."
--0----0--------------------------
--3----3--------------------3------
--2----2--------------------1------
--0----0----X2-------------0-------
-----------------------------2------
-------3--------------------0----------

Code: Select all


the last chord showed , E7 , is played right before the chorus.  If you listen to the song you know what im talking about.


CHORUS:

G , G , A , D

G , G , A , Bm

G , G , A , D



Hope this works out, tim

The tab looks pretty good, but on the fingerpicking part it seems like this part:

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

should be different, or something at that point is off, I dont know...
Anyone think something needs to be different or have any ideas whats off?

That's the intro riff. The open strings give a pedal tone type effect. Sorry I didn't do the whole thing...

shit I've been trying to figure out what that song is about for a really long time. I thought it had something to do with guy/girl getting in trouble for something but i never figured it out.

Wow, it seems really obvious now...

I'm gonna go hide in a corner

It wasn't really well-known what the song was about until he explained that it was about he and his high school girlfriend getting an abortion in interviews and Ben Folds Live.
