Subject: TAB: Blubber Boy by REGURGITATOR
There is definitely not enough stuff on these guys on the net.
Regurgitator is perhaps the best band Brisbane and Australia have seen
in a while.
I know a few of their better known songs, so here they are!!
Blubber Boy (Quan Yeomans)
by REGURGITATOR
from the LP "NEW"
There are two riffs in this song.
Riff 1. - A F#
Riff 2. - F# A B
Riff 1 starts the song off and is played in the verses while
riff 2 is played in the choruses.
Riff 1 should be played in this manner:
A F#
G-----------------------------------------------------
D-----7----7----7----5----5----7------4----4----4----4
A-----7----7----7----5----5----7------4----4----4----4
E-----5----5----5----5----5----5------2----2----0----2
It can also be played like this, but I find thid way more tricky:
A F#
G-----2----2----2----2----2----2----------------------
D-----2----2----2----0----0----2------4----4----4----4
A-----0----0----0----0----0----0------4----4----4----4
E-------------------------------------2----2----0----2
Riff 2 is pretty much staight forward
F# A B
G---------------------------------4----4----4
D-----4-----4-----7-----7----7----4----4----4
A-----4-----4-----7-----7----7----2----2----2
E-----2-----2-----5-----5----5---------------
The song is played as such:
Intro Riff 1
Verses x 2 Riff 1 x 2
Chorus Riff 2
Verses x 2 Riff 1 x 2
Chorus Riff 2
Some weird stuff in the middle
Chorus x heaps Riff 2 x heaps
When the verses are played twice, the first time is with no
distortion while the second time is with open distortion.
On the last line of the first verse each time the verses are played,
there is a variation: E F E.
The variation is played as such:
E F E
G-----------------------------------------------------
D-----2----2----2----2----2------2----3----3----2----2
A-----2----2----2----2----2------2----3----3----2----2
E-----0----0----0----0----0------0----1----1----0----0
Distortion is turned on at the beginning of the last line and left on
until the end of the chorus.
So now, here are the lyrics!!
BLUBBER BOY
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me I
Look like your love drowned in the sea I'm
Fishing in the sun I'm melting
Rub me on your cunt I'll come back again
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me
The sun beat me down too viciously
It beat me to the ground to what I used to be
I melted away I'm nothing again
CHORUS
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me
I'm melting away so bury me
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me
I'm melting away so bury me
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me
I've melted away so bury me
Talk to me in my grave and mourn me
It can be the same just begin again
I'm your blubber boy you should rub me I
Look like your love drowned in the sea I'm
Fishing in the sun I'm melting
Rub me on your cunt I'll come back again
CHORUS x 2
(Weird middle bit)
CHORUS x 2*
Rub me I'm your blubber boy x 12**
N.B.
*At the end of the second chorus, there is a prolonged "me"
at which the chord played is C, ie.:
C
G-----5--
D-----5--
A-----3--
E--------
**Play riff 2 at the end.
That's all folks!!

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 REGURGITATOR 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.
