Alanis Morissette - You Oughta Know
Tabbed by Reid Tissing (reid_tissing@hotmail.com)
The beginning has no guitar, and the verses are just alternating
F#m and B. The chorus is: F#m, E, A, B. I've added the chords in
with the lyrics so you can see where the timing takes place.
(No guitar at start)
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
F#m
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
B
Would she go down on your in a theatre
F#m
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
B
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
F#m
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
B F#m B
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
F
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Until you died, 'til you died
BBut you're still alive
Chorus:
F#m E
And I'm here to remind you
A B
Of the mess you left when you went away
F#m E
It's not fair to deny me
A B
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
B
You, you, you oughta know
(etc)
You seem very well, things look peaceful
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
I hate to but you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you *** her
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Until you died, 'til you died
But you're sill alive
Repeat Chorus
'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me
And I'm not gonna fade
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back
I hope you feel it...well can you feel it
Repeat Chorus
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official ALANIS MORISSETTE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
