Hello all,
This is a very simple song, but quite cool, so I thought I'd post it.
BLUEPRINT
by Fugazi
Intro:
(repeat 4 times)
|-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------
|-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------
|-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------
|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-
|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|-0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-
|-------------------------|-------------------------|-------------------------
|-------------------------
|-------------------------
|-------------------------
|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-
|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-
|-------------------------
throughout the next part,
"I'm not playing with you, I'm not playing with you, etc...", the guitar
plays this B chord:
|---
|---
|-4-
|---
|-2-
|---
When the verse gets to "But you still come around...", the guitar plays a
part that notewise is exactly the same as the intro. Listen to the tape to
get down the rhythm. The words are as follows:
But you still come around
In fact I invite you down
Maybe together
We can wipe that smile off your face
Cuz what a difference
What a difference
What a difference
A little difference would make
We'll draw a blueprint
It must be easy
Its just a matter
of knowing when to say no or yes
At this point, all the other instruments stop, and the guitar plays eigth notes
of that same B chord for 4 measures, then all the other instruments come in
again, and the guitar continues to play the B chord through:
Frustrating, frustrating, frustrating
Always waiting for the bigger axe to fall.
Another tacet for the other instruments, this time only 1 measure long, while
the guitar plays an E chord thus:
-------------------
-------------------
--/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-
-------------------
--/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-
-------------------
Then back to the B chord again
An emotional game
I can't find my way to play
one more measure of B's, then 4 measures of E's until the next part.
Throughout
this part, simply play bar chords.
E E B C D E
Never mind what's been selling, it's what you're buying
G A G
And recieving undefiled
Go through this four times, then back to that first B chord for 2 measures,
then
play the previous part again in double time:
E E B C C D E E G A A A A G
nevermind nevermind nevermind not no way to
play...
Play this four times, then go back to B for 2 measures, and then the 4 measures
of E, then the song ends.
Have fun. I'd be happy to figure out anything else by this band if
you'd like.

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 FUGAZI 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.
