Intro: First two bars of RF 1
Verse (Rhythm Fig 1):
Cut a tape of my favorite songs
Said what I can't face to face
I hoped that you would share all my thoughts
We are young and unimpressed,
with all you'd recognize.
Chorus (Rhythm Fig 2):
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind
Verse (RF 1):
In my car we are superstars
Run you lipstick down your chin
While up ahead we saw such a crash
Right there a song became a soundtrack
for this space in time.
Chorus (RF 2):
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind
Solo: RF 1 as if it was the second time through
Verse (RF 1):
Wonder is often lost
Jaded at such a cost
Time undermines you when you close your eyes.
We pass right by you. <-- neat distorted lyric (tm) :)
Chorus (RF 2):
So play it all over
Turn it wide.
Now there is nothing but a
Mix tape left behind
Now it won't rewind.
(repeat)
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 BETTER THAN EZRA 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.
