"Misery" by Soul Asylum for one guitar Most of the tab sheets I've seen have reduced this thing to a simple four chord number, it doesn't do the song justice. There are actually two guitar parts which I may guitar at some point, but for you solo acoustic people (like me) this is a good cover version. the end for some partial tab and notes on how I play stuff. [intro] Csus2/4 C Csus2/4 C [verse] C G/B Am F They say misery loves company C Em Am (G/B) We could start a company and make misery [frustrated] C G F Frustrated Incorporated [prechorus] F C I know just what you need F C I might just have the thing F C G I know what you'd pay to see [chorus] C G F Put me out of my misery C G Am F I'd do it for you, Would you do it for me? C G Am F We will always be busy C G F Making misery [verse] We could build a factory, and make misery We'll create the cure, we made the disease [frustrated] Frustrated Incorporated Frustrated Incorporated [prechorus] I know just what you need I might just have the thing I know what you'd pay to feel [chorus] Well, put me out of my misery All you suicide kings and and you drama queens Forever after happily making misery [solo] A E D A E F#m [verse] Did you satisfy your greed, get what you need? Was it only envy? So empty. [frustrated] Frustrated Incorporated [repeat until done, then...] C -----Notes and tabs----The following is how I do it. Ignore it or use it, it's up to you. [intro] this part is actually two guitars, and it's complicated. it's impossible to play all the notes with five fingers and six strings. fake it. here's a guideline.

| 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | e|-------3---------|-----------------| b|-3p1---1---------|-3p1---3---1-----| G|-0---0-0---------|-0---0-0-----0---| D|-3-----2---------|-3-----2-------2-| x2 A|-3-----3---------|-3-----3---------| E|-----------------|-----------------| Csus2/4: x3303x C: x32013 [verse] Hammer on the b string in the Am. Listen to the song, you'll hear it. Both G/B chords are in there for the effect of a walking bassline. The first one is a chord, but can be played as a straight G. The second one is a passing chord and could be entirely. [frustrated] Palm mute this entire section, and only play the lower two or three notes of the chord the last F where you can really build it into full chords for the chorus. [prechorus] The first two lines are one measure each, in 5/4. Alternate downstrokes and upstrokes on beat / offbeat so that the beat is always a downstroke. You don't hit the strings every and every time isn't a chord. Oh, and play the F with your thumb on the bass and your on the high e and b strings. That way you can go from a psuedobarre to a note and string, and then pick up your fingers so you're just muting the strings when necessary. the partial tab is this: | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 5 . | e|-1-0---1---x-1---0---| b|-1-1---1---x-1---1---| G|-2-2---2---x-2---0---| D|-3-3---3---x-3---2---| A|-3-3---3---x-3---3---| E|-1-1---1---x-1-------| F C The whole section is the measure of 5/4 tabbed above, played twice, then one full 4/4 of F, one full 4/4 bar of C, and two full 4/4 bars of G. Then into the chorus. [chorus] Straight chords. Nothing fancy. Listen to the record for the rhythm or whatever else you need to hear. -----END-----
