THE ANIMAL SONG
(Savage Garden)
Hints:
The most difficult SG song there is. If you get this, you are better than I am :)
For guitar... try playing with a capo first fret. And whatever instrument, feel
free to simplify the chords... I have two different sheet music versions-- who
knows which is right!
Congrats bassists, I've added a part for you! The only part missing from the tabs
is a tab for the bridge, but it is too complicated to tab out, so if you just
wing it, it will be fine.

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 SAVAGE GARDEN 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.
