Before You Were Born
by Toad the Wet Sprocket
from the _fear_ album
contributed by Ryan Houlette
<rhoulett@depauw.edu>
It's the same basic chords the whole song.
Vary it by adding hammer-ons/pull-offs.
Listen to the album to get the strumming pattern.
[verse1]
D Dsus4 G Gadd2?
How can it happen that every time
D Dsus4 G Gadd2
You ask us this question the answer seems like a lie
D Dsus4 G Gadd2
You know what what we're saying you know what it means
Bm
And it's always sincere god knows
A G
But it never gets through to where you need
[chorus1]
D
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
G
There's no place for you here, stay back where you belong
D
Before you were born someone kicked in the door
G
You are not wanted here anymore
(repeat these patterns for the other verses and choruses and the 2nd solo)
[1st solo backing chords]
Em D Em D Em A D A G

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 TOAD THE WET SPROCKET 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.
