BOA - "drinking" Tablature

SUBJECT: "Drinking", music by BOA.
FROM: Geoffrey Anderson <my_navi@hotmail.com>
I really love this song. It's the last track on BOA's breathtaking "Twilight" CD. This is a very simple song. It shouldn't give you any problems.
Some of this is approximate. Listen to the CD to get a good feel for it. If you find mistakes, feel free to e-mail me.
Note: I've tried, but I can't figure out what the electric guitar is doing in the background of the second verse. It's just barely audible. If anyone can figure this part out, please let me know.

Return to verse, then play the chorus riff until the end...and that's it! The electric guitar parts in the outro can be easily improvised based on the simple E-G-D chord pattern.
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 BOA 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.
