Song: "Friend is a Four-Letter Word" by Cake
Album: Fashion Nugget
Its me again. this song I'm a little less sure about than 'the distance' because I went to the bathroom during this song. Here goes:
Main Acoustic Riff:
e:I-----------0---------------0---------------1---------
B:I---------1---1-----------1---1-----------1---1-------
G:I-------2-------2-------0-------0-------2-------2-----
D:I-----2-----------2---2-----------2---3-----------3---
A:I---0---------------3---------------------------------
E:I-----------------------------------1-----------------
e:----------2--------I Repeat this many times,
B:--------3---3------I listening to the song for
G:------2-------2----I variations.(At some points,
D:----0-----------0--I he stays on the A-minor a
A:-------------------I few extra times)
E:--2----------------I
Distorted Riff(heard after first verse)
e:I-----------------------------------------I
B:I-----------------------------------------I
G:I-------7-7-6-5-5-------------------------I
D:I--7-7--7-7-6-5-5--5-5-4-3-3--7-7-6-4-4---I
A:I--7-7--5-5-4-3-3--5-5-4-3-3--7-7-6-4-4---I
E:I--5-5-------------3-3-2-1-1--5-5-4-2-2---I
That's basically the whole song, except for variations of these parts. Simple, yet cool at the same time.
The usual chatter can be directed to: allen09@cn.ca(jamie)
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 CAKE 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.
