BLUE COLLAR SUICIDE
By The Refreshments
from Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy
tabbed by Fiona Davies aussie_ducky@bigfoot.com
OK, the verse is almost entirely on E but it's mostly
a drums and bass thing except for Brian's teensy little fills.
Anyway, the main riff goes something like this with the rhythm
strumming an E the whole time:
E :----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|
B :----------------|----------------|----------------|-5-4-2----------|
G :----------------|----------------|----------------|-------4-2h4-2--|
D :2---------------|--2-------------|2---------------|---------------2|
A :--2--0---0--2---|2---2--0--------|--2--0----0--2-2|----------------|
E :-------4--------|---------4-0----|--------4-------|----------------|
Brian varies the little verse fills in every verse but to get started
use..
Natural harmonics...... and a gradual bend
E :-*12*----------------|------------------|
B :-*12*----------------|------------------|
G :---------------------|-9b---------------|
PRE-CHORUS
F#m A
But if I could You know I would
E Esus4 E

E

CHORUS:
E5 A5 D5
I can't sleep coz she snores like a chainsaw...
E5 A5 D5 E5
She can't count all the pills I took
E5, A5, D5
SOLO (nice and easy for a change)
E:--------------------------------------|
B:--------------------------------------|
G:--------------------------2h4p2-1-2-1-|
D:-2-1-----2-1--------2-1---------------|
A:-----2-------2h4p2------4-------------|
E:--------------------------------------|
E:-------------|----------------X-X as
B:-------------|----------------X-X many
G:-----------2-|----------------X-X times
D:-2-1---2-4---|----------------X-X as
A:-----2-------|----------------X-X needed...
E:-------------|----------------X-X
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
bass thing and
a bit of
E strumming
At the end as things get a little more psychotic just keep
pounding out E5, A5, D5 over and over until the cool wah/noise
ending.
You shouldn't have many problems figuring out the few couple of notes
that make up the verses, I just can't be stuffed writting it all down :)
Anyway, any comments or corrections or whatever would be cool.
