Subject: TAB: "Tyler" by Toadies
Song: Tyler
Artist: Toadies
Album: Rubberneck
Transcribed by: Ranjit Survanshi
I think this is the best song off of Rubberneck.
The entire song is: D A B F# G
The entire song is in 4-4 time, unlike a lot of other songs on
Rubberneck. A simple rhythm would be D for 2 beats, A for one beat and
B for one beat, then F# for 3 beats and G for one beat. Listen to the
CD to get the exact rhythm.
The intro is
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------7--------7--------7--------7-------------------------------------
play this measure
----------7--------7---------7-------7---------------------------------
twice
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
then
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--7-----7-----7-----7-----7----7-----7---------8---------------------
-----7-----7-----7-----7----6-----6-----6__7------7-----------------
play this four times
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
during that part after the 2nd verse
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
---3-----3-----2-----3-----2-----2-----2---------3------------------
play this twice
------2-----2-----2-----2-----3-----3-----3__4------4--------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
the bass line that runs throughout the song is
---------------------4-------------------------------------------------
-0--0--0--0--2--4---------4--4--4--4--4--4--5--5------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's my attempt at the lyrics:
And she runs through her days
With a smile on her face
And she runs and she waits
And I wait
We can drive through any place
Day and night across this state
And in the morning, into Mexico
We will wake up
We will wake up
We will yeah, yeah
I will be with her
I find the window in the kitchen and I let myself in
Running smooth the refrigerator burn myself again
I can't believe I'm really here, is she lying in that bed
I can almost feel her touch, and her ????? ??????
I stumble in the hallway outside her bedroom door
I hear her call up to me, I hear the fear in her voice
She pulls her covers tighter, I press against the door
I will be with her tonight
I will be with her tonight
I will be with her tonight
I will be with her tonight
I will be with her yeah, yeah
So there it is. I think there are some Toadies pages on the web that
have lyrics, and they might be more accurate than mine.

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 TOADIES 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.
