BUFFALO TOM - "for all to see" Tablature
Official BUFFALO TOM Tablature & Sheet Music »
From: eblst2+@pitt.edu (Efren B Leonida)
Subject: TAB:Buffalo Tom's "For All to See" from No Alternative
I transcribed this last year but never sent it out, thinking I'd finish
the solo and the outro first. It doesn't look like i'll have the time,
but both are really simple and should be pretty easy to figure out.

lyrics:
(my best guess)
I've fallen into my surroundings once again
She comes in pieces and she opens up my mouth
One sign says north one sign says east so I went south
I promised myself I'd come back another time
Left all hopes schemes and dreams against the rocks
Who can return them now it's not for you
Returned to his eyes and headed to his bed
You twist my patience
What did you expect
What did you expect
She opens up for all to see
Lady Godiva is infancy
You never guess it just by looking one by one
Her small subconcience drives us in the smoky room(?)
I'm a royal smoking gun and I'm here back from the dead
It was morning it was cold and so I said
If no one's happy I'll turn this rig around
They all were wandering people into town
We dropped you off that day only to find
That you were gone and we left you behind
Left you behind
What did you expect
Left you behind
She opens up for all to see
Lady Godiva is infancy
Infancy
Time
Dashing all hopes schemes and dreams against the rocks
Who can return them now it's not for you
If no one's happy I'll turn this rig around
They all were wandering people into town
We dropped you off that day only to find
That you were gone and we left you behind
Left you behind
What did you expect
Left you behind
She opens up for all to see
Lady MacBeth is lunacy
Lunacy

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 BUFFALO TOM 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.
