Verse:
B F#m
I’m looking at my watch
Em A
At all the time that’s been stolen
When I was carrying you
Seems I tripped and I’ve fallen
Don’t want no one to ache
Oh, to be drunk and forgetful
To get out of this unscathed
Oh, to be free and inhuman
Chorus:
Some May say I love To Play When the chance is there to take

Verse:
I’m mopping up the floor
From messy recipes of romance
I’m packing up the pots
To many cooks in the kitchen
Chorus:
Some may say I let a good thing go to waste
I let it go to waste
Solo
Verse:
Let a good thing go to waste
A good thing go to waste
Repeat
Chorus:
No words (phone rings)
Verse:
I’m looking at my watch
At all the time that’s been stolen
When I was carrying you
It seems I tripped and I’ve fallen
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 SMASH MOUTH 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.
