I'm not talking about the chords, I'm talking specifically about the like bass line he plays

It looks like he just strums the 6th string the whole time. You might be able to watch a video of them playing the song back then or even from this tour to see what frets he plays on.

in standard on the e string he would being playing 12 for e, 5 for a and 7 for b and he plays these notes with heaps of effects. obviously he doesn't play it in standard tuning but this is just the easiest way to recognise the notes or whatever

e a e
a peacebone got found in a dinosaur wing

b e a e
half of my fingers are dipped in the sand

a e b e
obsession with the past is like a dead fly

b e
CHAGOTCHA insides!

i hoped that helped!

So far, I got
C# - A#(+G#)
F - A#(+G#)

D# - A#(+C)

C# D#(+B) A#

G# - G#(+F)
D# - G#(+F)

when you're writing C#(+A#) are you trying to say a C# chord with a A# added? That's a C#6 (although if the A# is in the bass you'll sometimes see it written as C#6 / A# to show that the inversion makes the A# the bass note

Yeah I thought someone would think that but no I'm trying to, like, tab it by note since I can't type it like a score. Left side of the hyphen is left hand and right is right hand. The bracket is the added note since I want to emphasis the base note. Sorry if that's really confusing [s](I'll come back with a sheet music)[/s]

I realize it's improper but ain't nobody got the time for that
Fixed the part I said I bullshitted too but I probably messed something up because I don't have the eyes for this

who welses in my hoff
Spoiler: show
who wellses in my hoff
dropped D should be fine for the tuning
(the whole tunings sorta flat so almost like a half step down then tnue the bass string down a step to like a Db but dropped d should be fine)
for who wellses in my hoff you can tune your low e down a d and just play:

e|-------|
b|---3--|
g|---2--|
d|---0--|
a|---0--|
d|---0--|

This is a D chord
you can throw in the occasional high e

so it goes

D

d|---4--5--7--| D
we're ba-king bread

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
thats how we spend our time

d|---4--5--9--7--12--| D
so happy baking bread

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
and all the day is fine

the next chord is an Em

e|---0--|
b|---0--|
g|---0--|
d|---2--|
a|---2--|
d|---2--|

its strummed fast to slow over about 3 bars

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
there are no better times

stay at the D again for 2 bars, then back to the Em again

Em d|---2--4--5--7--| D
there are no better times

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
for talking with your hand

d|---9--7--5--7--9--| D
or crying out instead

d|---4--5--4--9--4--| D
were happy baking bread

d|---4--5--4--9--4--| D
were happy baking bread

d|---4--5--7--| D
we're ba-king bread

d|---4--5--7--| D
our family time

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
my sisters both are fine

d|---4--5--7--9--4--| D
were talking and were smiling

d|---7--9--7--5--7--| D
we drove an endless mile

Em.....
d|---2--4--5--7--| D
there are no better times

Em.....
d|---2--4--5--7--| D
there are no better times

d|---9--7--5--7--9--| D
for telling sister jokes

d|---9--7--5--7--12--| D
or having sister smokes

d|---7--5--4--9--4--| D
were having family time

d|---7--5--4--5--7--| D
were having family time

then you just finish strumming D every 1/4 note and fade out

alright, I added all the stuff from pb meets the grim reaper in there -- thanks tubby turdner for putting everything in the first post, that helped (me actually reading the thread also helped). songs from the live shows or that have unofficial names ("wazzup/popadam" etc) I put under the top section, everything from the album/ep is there, so if there's duplicates.....uh, whatever.

I found some more music on ultimate guitar and put them on (boys latin comes to mind), so there's a bunhc of new additions. i organized the solo stuff a bit better (not much, but....)

@jfw7: I've been meaning to include the album covers and have them click through to LC, but if you've any other ideas, lmk. I like your setup with the album covers in like a table, I thought about aping that but it seemed like a lot of work.

@untitled: if it's not there, I'm not aware of it. you could bug one of the guys that loves doing that stuff -- i think clayton has done some piano sheet music and maybe rdnzl? not sure who else, offhand) -- but I haven't written stuff on staff paper in like 10 years, and piano is what I suck the most at, so I'm not doing it...

@clayton, yes, pdf sheet music is most welcome. upload it or you can send it to me and i'll upload it.

sup dudes I used victor borge's cheap treat chords and matched them all up to the lyrics from sb hope it's useful:

Code: Select all

CHEAP TREAT

**INTRO**
G---Em---G---Em---
G-----------------Em---
is there a doctor in the house?
F----------------Em--------------C---
stop the show we got a grown man down

**VERSE**
G------------------Em---
  drove up just to take me back
G-------------Em---
must of had a bottle stashed
G--------------------Em---
popped them probably thought he had it
F---------------------Em------------C---
stop the show because everyone gets down
Bm--------Am---
don’t ask why

**BRIDGE**
----G-----------Am---
you find in the end
---------Bm---------------C---
you’ve become what you condemned
--------D---
its the end
--------------------------
and the cycle starts again

**CHORUS**
---------G---
bring it down
------D----------Am---
first lightly
-------------------Em---
with a strong flexibility
G--------------------D-----------Am---
  don’t act like you never need
------------------Em---
another chance to make it bleed
G----------------Em---
  right works subjectively
G---------------Em---
  wrong acts subjectively
G----------------Em---
  right works subjectively
F---------------------Em-------------C---
  the final word just barely makes a sound

**VERSE**
G------------------------Em---
  i learned the blocks i know my lines
G--------------------Em---
  but only if theres no surprise
G--------------------Em---
  but only if theres no surprise 
F-----------------------Em------------C---
  stop the show because everyone gets down
Bm--------Am---
don’t ask why


**BRIDGE**
----G-----------Am
you find in the end
---------Bm---------------C---
you’ve become what you condemned
--------D---
its the end
--------------------------
and the cycle starts again

**CHORUS**
---------G---
bring it down
------D----------Am---
first lightly
-------------------Em---
with a strong flexibility
G--------------------D-----------Am---
  don’t act like you never need
------------------Em---
another chance to make it bleed
G-------D----------Am---
  judge lightly
-------------------Em---
with a strong flexibility
G--------------------D-----------Am---
  don’t act like you never need
------------------Em---
another chance to make it bleed
G----------------Em---
  right works subjectively
G----------------Em---
  wrong acts subjectively
G----------------Em---
  right works subjectively
G----------------Em---
  wrong acts subjectively
also there was a tiny mistake in the preakness above which I fixed, an Eb shouldn've been an Em

Nice work Emerson, that sounds right to me. Only thing I'd mention is that I think in the last section ("Golden Gal, Gave me my strength...") it's actually Dm G Em F
And the part "Every word’s so tricky..." I think that's an F there, not a Dm, but F and Dm are pretty much the same chord anyway

They're all easy guitar chords too!! Thanks avey!
