Exit Flagger from the Guided by Voices album Propellor
Tabbed by Michael Davidson
This one's really easy. First of all, here are the chords. (All barre, but it sounds much better if you don't play the high e string on the e-shaped ones. Listen to the song; they keep it pretty low.)
A - 577655 B - x2444x D - x5777x Db - x4666x G - 355433
The main chord RIFF (uppercase) is the same thing, but with barre chords. (That is, DDbBG)
riffx2
riff riff I don't know where I've come from I don't know where I'm off to
riff riff I need to find a way out I need you to help me find it
RIFF Exit Flagger x4
AG * I'm not going to race you today
riff riff I need a life of sameness I don't compete in anything
riff riff I promise to leave you one of these days I promise to leave real soon
RIFF Exit Flagger x4
AG * I'm not going to race you today
DG I promise to leave you x4
Then through the solo it's just the RIFF four times, an A, a G, and the riff eight times.
* Instead of A then G, you can play A (x0222x), B, Db, D instead which follows the bass line instead of the guitar. (You can play the A that way anytime, but I think it's easier to slide to the G if you go ahead and play it on the fifth fret.)
