Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
Here's a link to a video of me playing it when I first tabbed it out... this is before I added the hammer-ons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r4_tPIWCyK0
This is my first tab. I know it's not 100% correct, but I know it sounds pretty good. So please don't send me a bunch of e-mails telling me it's not right because I'm aware of that. It's a pretty simple song in terms of the chords. Singing the rhythm correctly with the rhythm can be a little trickier for some.
The same 4 chords repeat throughout the song. There is one place where it changes a bit... which is where he says "Then what makes love the exception"... you repeat the 3rd and 4th chords again.
Chords Used: C F Cmaj9 Am7 (I'm aware that these may not be the correct names, but for the sake of simplicity this is what I'll call them)
CF My baby don't mess around F Because she loves me so Cmaj9Am7 And this I know for sure CF But does she really wanna F But can't stand to see me Cmaj9Am7 Walk out the door CF Don't try to fight the feeling FCmaj9Am7 Because the thought alone is killing me right now CF Thank god for mom and dad F For sticking two together Cmaj9Am7 'Cause we don't know how.
Chorus: CF And, Hey Ya Cmaj9Am7 Hey Ya CF Hey Ya Cmaj9Am7 Hey Ya
C You think you've got it F Ohh, you think you've got it F But got it just don't get it Cmaj9Am7 Till' there's nothing at all. C We get together F Oh, we get together FCmaj9Am7 But seperate's always better when there's feelings involved. CF If what they say is "Nothing is forever" Cmaj9Am7 Then what makes, Then what makes, Then what makes, Then what makes, Cmaj9Am7 Love the exception? C So why you, why you FF Why you, why you, why you are we so in denial Cmaj9Am7 When we know we're not happy here
Chorus: CF And, Hey Ya Cmaj9Am7 Hey Ya CF Hey Ya Cmaj9Am7 Hey Ya
