Subject: TAB: b/blues_traveler/but_anyway.tab
Corrected by: Richard Arends
This is a correction to the rythm part tabbed before. It's played a little
jazzy, so feel free to improvise the rythm and spice it up with some palm
muting.

Lyrics:
I lied and told her I loved her
she didn't care but anyway
I told her we'd still be friends
and she didn't care but anyway
I tried last week for to call her
she wasn't home but anyway
I think I'll spend my life alone
I really don't care right now but anyway
=09it's a state of affairs
=09and a state of emotions
=09the kind of thing you must
=09understand
=09I tell you one thing
=09you'll tell me another
=09we walk away
=09maybe then shake hands
I'm quitting cigarette smoking
it's bad for me but anyway
I don't think the TV was joking
when it told me this but anyway
the newsman said not to sit on
strange toilet seats
it's my life he's trying to save but anyway
I found out that I got eye cancer
too many television waves but anyway
=09chorus
some day an anser will find us
quite a long shot but anyway
I think the past is behind us
be real confusing if not but anyway
I put all my hope in tomorrow
it's gonna be great I can tell but anyway
I see a new day a dawning
I like to sleep late, oh well, but anyway
=09chorus
Please contact me if I have made any mistakes.
peace

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 BLUES TRAVELER 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.
