Just one of those songs I happened to be listening to and managed to
figure it out. I think I may have figured out "Change II" off of the
Change album if anyone's interested.
Tab is mine, as are any errors. If you make any corrections or
additions, fine, but let me know so that I can play it right too!

"Raw" by The Alarm -- tabbed by Ken MacFarlane
INTRO: appregio based on G F F Em bar chords, something like:
E|-----3--------1--------1--------0---
B|--------3--------1----------------0-
G|------------------------------------
D|---5--------3--------3--------2-----
A|----------------------------2-------
E|-3--------1--------1------0---------
This figure repeats throughout the verses.
At one point in the first verse, this changes slightly:
(sorry, don't have exact lyric with me)
G F F Em
I have drunk ...
G F F Em D C
Free spirits rising in ...
and then above figure ...
CHORUS:
G F C
Raw, raw, ...
G F C
Raw, raw, you better leave ...
G F C
Raw, raw, I ain't got ...
F F
Burnt right back...burnt right ....
G G (rake) G G (rake) F F (rake) F F (rake)...then back to the verse.
BRIDGE: (after second chorus)
D
Rolling like a river, running ....
D C G
Free spirits rising in ....
SOLO: don't have it, but it's based on the G G F C pattern of the verse
then second verse, repeating G G F C until the end of the song

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 ALARM 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.
