NEW RADICALS - "you get what you give" Tablature
Official NEW RADICALS Tablature & Sheet Music »
Artist: New Radicals
Tabbed By: Jason Mangan
Date: 2-12-2000
This was originally tabbed by Baz, though his version had some errors.
I love this song so much that I had to tab it out note for note. This tab
is
about 95% accurate and includes all the improvisation and fooling around
high
up the neck! I hope it will be of use on your site.
Bass should be in standard tuning, low to high E, A, D, G.
(Sounds slightly flat on recording).

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 NEW RADICALS 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.
