["I Wanna Be With You Tonight"]
[Intro - A with a few quick changes to D]
[Verse]
A D A D A
I just know your name but still just the same
D E
I see you in my dreams at night, I see you in my food when I eat
A D A D A
I see your pretty mug, I think that I'm in love
D E
If you kissed me I would blow up, if I kissed you would you throw up?
D E A E D E
I try to say "Don't walk away from me in my condition"
[Verse]
I sit and look at you and think of what to do
After school when you go home and leave me standing all alone here
And I try to speak, my mouth's dry, I'm weak
I'm sure you've got a boyfriend and he's probably a lawyer or something
I try to say "Don't walk away from me in my condition" cause
[Chorus]
D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
D A E D A E
I wanna be with you tonight
[Bridge]
F# D A E
I can't look to the other side of the room and you're ignoring me
F# D A
You must think that I'm gay because I can't find a way to ask you out
E
But I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying
[Key change]
[Verse]
B E B E B
I sit and look at you and think of what to do
E F#
After school when you go home and leave me standing all alone here
B E B E B
And I try to speak, my mouth's dry, I'm weak
E F#
I'm sure you've got a boyfriend and he's probably a lawyer or something
E F# B F# E F#
I try to say "Don't walk away from me in my condition" cause
[Chorus]
E B F#
I wanna be with you tonight
E B F#
I wanna be with you tonight
E B F#
I wanna be with you tonight
E B F# B
I wanna be with you tonight
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 SCREECHING WEASEL 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.
