Transcription: Xavier Flament (flament@onera.fr)
Nice song from the greatest pop band! It's quite easy to play (with a lot of
disto), but placing the lyrics on music is quite tricky. Anyway, listen to the
song to know how to play it as the chords are approximatively placed on my tab.
I'm not sure of the Bm in the so-called pre-chorus, so if you find a better
chord, e-mail me.
Chord formation:
---------------
A 577655 Bm X24432 D X57775 G 355433
Verse #1:
--------
A D
I gotta lose weight
A D
I swallow honey
A D
Is my stand up show
A D
Still that funny
A D
Am I back for good
A D
I said that I said that
A D
Said that I would be
A D
She's down waist low
A D
Trying to make me happy
Pre-chorus:
----------
Bm D
Because I like
G D A
Watching you
Chorus:
------
A
It's time I tried
D
Tried to check my
G
Check my eyelids
D
Check for holes
Verse #2:
--------
Two weeks late
I, I, I
I gotta test for babies
Shop take is falling low
I'm not going back
Back to the factories
Pre-chorus:
----------
Bm D
Because I like
G D A
Watching you
Chorus:

It's time I tried
D
Tried to check my
G
Check my eyelids
D
Check for holes

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 STEREOPHONICS 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.
