September (JACKOPIERCE)
Transcribed by Austin Garza (GARZAAE@ctrvax.Vanderbilt.edu)
Featured as a bonus track on AWARE 3 compilation
------------------------------------------------
3 funky chords (don't know if names are right at all):
Emadd9 (?) D*dim(something) G* w/o top G
E 2/3 2 O
B O 2 O
G O 2 O
D 2 O O
A 2 x 2
E x 2 3
The Emadd9 chord (Em* below), hammer on E-2 to E-3; listen to the song and
you can pick it up. The bass E-2 on the D*dim chord (D* below) is not
always played either. They screw around with some of the chord changes, but
what's below is the right basic framework.
A G Em*
What was the name she gave herself?
D*
They called her September.
A G Em*
She wasn't known for much except
D*
Her legs and her temper.
E G
He had enough money to get a date back in his place
E G
She kept the lights low to avoid his face
A G Em*
He grabbed her arm a little too hard
D*
He was rough when she pulled away
A G Em*
She started running for the stairs
D*
He thought it was all a game
E G
She'd rather die than be abused again
E G
She broke his grip high now on adrenaline
A G Em*
She pulled a pistol from her purse,
D*
Screamed the party was over.
A G Em*
Not the brightest man in the world
D*
He reached for the revolver
E G
She cocked the handle back and put one into his chest
E G
And watched him fall down the stairs to his final rest
G*
She thought it best,
E G
She turned off all the lights and stereo
E G G*
She sat in the morning breeze and watched the sun glow on the city below
A->G->Em*->D*...
She sang, "La-la-la...."
A G Em*
What was the name she gave herself
D*
They called her September.

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 JACKOPIERCE 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.
