Subject: Lame by 7 Mary 3
Band: 7 Mary 3
Song: Lame
Album: American Standard
Tuning: Normal - No Capo
Transcribed by Don Kurelich
This song has a pretty basic strum pattern, in the intro and verses
it's essentialy 4 downstrokes on the lower strings with a quick upstroke
at the end of each measure. All the other parts have full strums with
some neat rhythm (a little hammer-on the C sometimes). Listen to it,
you'll know what I mean.

Lame:
Intro: G B* A* (play 2 times)
G B* A*
There's a tall, mulatto, boy I know
G B* A*
And he comes to every party - he stands alone.
G B* A*
In viewing them the rest, the 'corner of his glance, it gets so clear
G B* A* C* C*
He's not, judging anyone.
G B* A*
The way his arms float around his cage, he's caged
G B* A*
Canary sings, silently brings, his voice to rage.
G B*
The way they stop and stare, the way they turn their
A*
heads, it's enough to make him want to run away,
G B* A* C* C*
But he stays, he stands his ground.
(Chorus)
G D C*
And I'm, I'm so damn lame.
G Em* C*
The way I condescend without ever knowing his name.
G D
He keeps it in a box, hangs it from his ear
C*
Looks at everyone without the slightest fear.
G Em* C*
It's makin' me so ashamed.
G B* A* (play 2 times)
G B* A*
Slender body, slip through his glance.
G B* A*
I don't give it a single chance.
G
The way he's rocking back and forth,
B*
makes a buzzin' in my ear,
A*
Constantly reminding me that I never stop to hear
G B* A* C* C*
him say hello, hello.
(Chorus 2)
G D C*
And I'm, I'm so damn lame.
G Em* C*
Like a moth bumpin' off his godless flame.
G D C*
I cannot condescend or even apprehend, what comes over me
G Em* C*
When I see his shameless face.
Em* DaddB A* C*
So rage, please rage, against me
Em* DaddB A* C*
Beat me down, beat me down, forgive me,
Em* DaddB A* C*
For what I've done, I'm so lame, I'm so lame, I'm so lame
Em* DaddB A* C* Em*
So lame, so lame, so lame.

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 SEVEN MARY THREE 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.
