Song: Nerdy
Album: The Opposite of December

Transcribed by: losingartax
Tuning: This entire CD is tuned one full step down in D (low to high D G C F A D).
Explanation of tabs: In the Verse(lead), you might want to add some artificial harmonics,
just to make it sound a little more authentic. The colons in the Chorus and Chorus
(lead) mean to play that last chord at the end of the VERY LAST TIME you repeat the
chorus, and ONLY the last time.

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 POISON THE WELL 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.
