Here is an attempt at the chords to "Broken Face" off the album Surfer Rosa.
What follows is true. Only the names have been changed to protect the
innocent.
Broken Face - The Pixies
I got a broken face
I got a
I got a broken face
A
I got broken face *2
A
There was this boy who had two
Children with his sisters
A
They were his daughters
C G
They were his favourite lovers
A D B E A
I got no lips, I got no tongue
D B E A
Where there were eyes there's only space
D B E A
I got no lips, I got no tongue
A
I got a broken face, uh-hu, uh-hu
I got a broken face
There was this man who snapped his poke
In little pieces
And then they drilled holes
And then they put 'em back in there
I got no lips, I got no tongue
Where there were eyes there's only space
I got no lips, I got no tongue
I got a broken face
Uh-hu, uh-hu, uh-hu, uh-hu, ooo
I got a broken face
The little thing who loves my mother
Speaks no English
But if you saw her
You'd say "Hey isn't she lovely"
I got no lips, I got no tongue
Where there were eyes there's only space
I got no lips, I got no tongue
As far as I can tell all the chords are Emaj and Amaj bar chords, although I
could easily be convinced that this is not the case. Any help or corrections
would be appreciated.
Cheers

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 PIXIES 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.
