Em
let me tell ya bout a girl i know, had a drink about an hour ago
Am B C B
sittin in a corner by herself, in a bar in downtown L
Em
she heard a noise and she looked thru the door
and saw a man she'd never seen before
Am B C B
light skin and light blue eyes, a double chin and a plastic smile
Em
well, her heart raced as he walked in the door
and took an empty seat next to her at the bar
B Am
a brand new car is parked right outside, how'd ya like to go for a ride
Em
and she said, "wait a minute, i have to think"
he said, "that's fine may i please buy you a drink?"
B C B E(I)
one drink tuned into 3 or4 and they left and got into his car
C B E
and they drove away someplace real far
Em
"now babe, the time has come. how'd ya like to have a little fun?"
B C G D
and she said, "if we could only please be on our way i would not run"
Em
that's when things got out of control
Em C B Em C B
she didn't want to, he had his way
Em C B Em C B
she said, "let's go", "he said no way
C B
come on babe, it's your lucky day
C B

C N.C.

Em
he finished up, and started the car
he turned around and drove back to the bar
Am B C B
he said,"now baby, don't be sad, in my opinion, you weren't half bad"
Em
she picked up a rock, threw it in the car
hit him in the head now he's got a big scar
Am B C B
come on party people won't ya listen to me, date rape stylee
Em
the next day she went to her drawer
looked up her local attorney at law
B
went to the phone and filed a police report
Am
then she took the guy's ass to court
Em
the day he stood in front of the judge
he screamed, "she lies that little slut"
B C B E(I)
the judge knew he was full of shit and he gave him 25 years
C B E
and now his heart is filled with tears
Em
one night in jail it was getting late
B
he was buttraped by a large inmate and he screamed
C G D B
but the guards paid no attention to his cries
Em
that's when things got out of control
Em C B Em C B Em C B Em C B
the moral of the date rape story it does not pay to be drunk and horny
B C B
but that's the way it had to be
C B
they locked him up and threw away the key
C
but i can't take pity on men of his kind
N.C.
even though he now takes it in the behind
break
repeat last four lines
Em, B, C, G progression for rest of song
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 SUBLIME 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.
