"Don't Speak" - No Doubt
Tabbed by: Steve Jang - Just a 16 year-old kid who's been playing the
guitar for almost 2 years - but very good! ;)
Okay, a lot of people couldn't figure out the little parts of the song
and e-mailed me about it, so I just decided to tab out everything in
the song. It's now complete.
BTW: The chord names in the intro and verses don't necessarily represent
the name of the actual chords, but your fingering position. All of these
are barre-chords.

Outro (Chorus is repeated w/ different lyrics)
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 NO DOUBT 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.
