TAB FOR DIGITS BY The HEADSTONES
FROM THE ALBUM: SMILE AND WAVE
TRANSCRIBED BY MATTHEW HANSEN
This is a cool song from an awsome album. This tab
is far from perfect but it's a start.
Intro Riff:

D---6---2---4---6---2---6-6---2---4---6---4-
A---4---2---4---6---2---4-4---2---4---6---2-
E-------0---2---4-------------0---2---4-----
For the verse play the C#m chord below with randow string scrapes
this is probably wrong, but I couldn't find anything better.
Half way Through you hit an A5 chord
C#m scrapes A5

-6----x-------2--
-6----x-------2--

Pre chorus(no two snowflakes are alike...)
You play A5 about 8 times, G5 4 and D5 like 10 or something(fast)

Lyrics:
INTRO 2X
shame on you shame on you
VERSE 1:
C#m
She's got the numbers man
I got the digits
Everybody knows there own
Pulses Quickened
A5
Don't know the essence well they've
Gone and made a mess
C#m
Jimmy wanted pistols but he
Shot em when he got em
Pre-Chorus:
A5
No 2 snow flakes are alike
G5 D5
And niether are the seconds
CHORUS 4X(no lyrics)
VERSE 2:
C#m
Be happy when we're in public
Don't know how we ever got by
I've got it now I'm damaged
I'm a discontinued line
A5
Too busy gettin sick to close
Anybody can see the flaws
C#m
Billy wanted depth
Maybe shoulda checked his pockets
PRE CHORUS
CHORUS:
yeah
SOLO/BRIDGE(haven't figured it out yet)
VERSE 3:
same as first verse, except instead of playing
the C#m chord, play the intro instead.
PRECHORUS
CHORUS:
yeah
Outro:
play the chorus riff, just a little faster
That's about it. If anyone has the more
correct/complete version, or any other cool tabs
(especially Headstones), post em.
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 HEADSTONES 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.
