Exit Flagger
from the Guided by Voices album Propellor
Tabbed by Michael Davidson
This one's really easy. First of all, here are the chords. (All barre,
but it sounds much better if you don't play the high e string on the
e-shaped ones. Listen to the song; they keep it pretty low.)
A - 577655
B - x2444x
D - x5777x
Db - x4666x
G - 355433
The single-note riff (spelled with lowercase) is
A-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-----------------------------------------------
E-----------------------3-3-3-3---------------------------------------
The main chord RIFF (uppercase) is the same thing, but with barre
chords. (That is, D Db B G)

I need a life of sameness I don't compete in anything

D G

Then through the solo it's just the RIFF four times,
an A, a G, and the riff eight times.
* Instead of A then G, you can play A (x0222x), B, Db, D instead which
follows the bass line instead of the guitar. (You can play the A that
way anytime, but I think it's easier to slide to the G if you go ahead
and play it on the fifth fret.)

Enjoy!
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 GUIDED BY VOICES 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.
