Written by Dom Leone
*This song comes from the soundtrack of the movie "Ed's Next Move."(a
wonderful by the way) The band, Ed's Redeeming Qualities(ERQ), now has
their own album out. I've never seen or heard it so I don't know if there
is a version of this song on there. Anyway, this is from the movie. As
far as instrumentation goes, I have figured the song out on guitar with
standard tuning. In the song he plays, I think, a ukelale,.(is that
spelled right?)but this works for guitar. The song starts with the
chorus. The e second and third verses erses are p w layed wIith the same
chords as the first. s aas the first.
(no intro)
Chorus:
G D C C
You twisted your ankle, I carried you
G D C C
You got a divorce, so I married you
G D C C
You fell off a cliff, so I buried you
G D C C
I wish there were more bad times to see you through
G C
You never got rabies
D G
You never gained weight
G C D D
You never came home with a scar
G C D G
You never drank posion, you watched what you ate
G C D D
You never so much as put a scratch on my car
(Chorus)
You never got measles, you never got gout
You never suggested charades
You never got dizzy, you never fell out
You never picked up any live handgrenades
Bridge:
G C G D
So many things did go wrong, but the list is not
G C
long enough-not enough
G D G
bad things to fill up a song
(Chorus)
You never lost contacts, you never leaked oil
You never fell to sticks and stones
You never drank cleanser, you never ate foil
You never chocked on an big chicken bones
(Chorus end with a slow G aAfter the final C
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 EDS REDEEMING QUALITIES 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.
