Artist: De Artsen
Song: 10 grains (from their album "Conny waves with a shell"
By Sliver (javanree@gamers.org)
Use standard tuning, bit of reverb, perhaps some chorus. I used the text
just like it appeared in the CD book, although not always correct ?! De
Artsen
were the predecessors of Bettie Serveert, a well known ducth band.
INTRO
C C C C
VERSE
C F
Dear minister of photography, would you please explain
C F
How come she'll find oranges in your apple tree down memorylane
C F
She looks somewhat familiar in her apron and her hat, like no one ever
sung
C F
This quotation is such to interpret, guess you're the only one
CHORUS 1
C Am F
She said ten grains is enough for you
C Am F
When sirenes getting hold of you
VERSE
Now I come to think of, what she really meant
Anyway don't get so wet about this lookalike lament
And I surely wanna take her, ofcourse I wanna take her,
where she's never been
Where pressure people shrink, or just afraid to go to,
somewhere inbetween
CHORUS 2
C Am F
But she said ten grains is enough for you
C Am F
When sirens getting hold of you
C Am F
Apprehension, I had to dig it ten feet underground
C Am F
Final, I still love you somehow
VERSE 3
Well the ancient apecall, sense of gloom showing on my screen
Stop this nonsense, stop this nonsense,
don't get fooled by the pityqueen.
Blister on my soul, well that sounds nice, pathetic poem to my girl
Boy, you still haven't grown up, see you dazzling in this women's world
CHORUS 2
OUTTAKE
C F C F (repeat and fade)
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 DE ARTSEN 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.
