Before I Do - Sloan Tabbed by Adam Bishop E5 - 022xxx D5 - x57xxx Eb(b5) - x67xxx B5 - x24xxx A5 - 577xxx G5 - 355xxx These chords are mostly on piano, and there are lot of piano riffs I couldn't figure out. Intro (one electric guitar, one acoustic guitar): E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--9--------11----10----9--------11----10----12----13--------1-------------- D|---------------------------------------------------------0----------------- A|------------------------------------------------------2-------------------- E|---------------------------------------------------0----------------------- (acoustic) E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--12----14--------2--------11----7----9------------------------------------ D|---------------0----------------------------------------------------------- A|------------2-------------------------------------------------------------- E|---------0----------------------------------------------------------------- (acoustic) (Piano and bass) E5 There's no more fame to address Did you impress?

My train's been stalled for ages And this means me standing still With a first-class ticket So stick me with it I'll stick with it Just call me if you need my help To watch you help me help you I'm usually in late (I've had a good time) In the afternoon and night (My best one yet) Otherwise I'm asleep (I never had enough time) At least I've got a lot of room And the alarm is set for noon (To play my "love you" set) And it's going to go off Before I do (I've had a good time) Outro: E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--------4-----------4-----------4-----------4------------------------------ A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- E|--0-----------0-----------0-----------0------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--------4-----------4-----------4-----------4------------------------------ A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- E|--3-----------3-----------3-----------3------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------2-----------2-----------2-----------2------------------------------ D|-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4--------------------------- A|--2-----------2-----------2-----------2------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--------4-----------4-----------4-----------4------------------------------ A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- E|--0-----------0-----------0-----------0------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------2-----------2-----------2-----------2------------------------------ D|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- A|--0-----------0-----------0-----------0------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--------4-----------4-----------4-----------4------------------------------ A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- E|--3-----------3-----------3-----------3------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------2-----------2-----------2-----------2------------------------------ D|-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4-----4--------------------------- A|--2-----------2-----------2-----------2------------------------------------ E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- D|--------4-----------4-----------4-----------4------------------------------ A|-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2-----2--------------------------- E|--0-----------0-----------0-----------0------------------------------------ (also play E over that last part, then go to the octaves) Starting at 4:36 there are two guitars, one mixed to the centre (kind of louder and janglier), and one mixed to the left (quieter and deeper). It is a lot like Only In Dreams by Weezer (and like I Want You by the Beatles, with the abrupt ending). They are playing the same riff, all the way to the end, but the left channel guitar starts at the different point. I'll just show the centre channel guitar to save space (and my sanity). I've put some of the times in, I hope that makes it less confusing (but they are only for the centre guitar, of course).

E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------- (End abruptly) Here is what Andrew is saying over the ending: So he was in this, this hospital, checking out the phone, he misunderstood and I was speaking firmly, very talkatively at the time, and he was walking around with a dress on, totally dressed with, with his arm down, and he said, I don't know what I'm doing here, I'm a business man, he didn't come and tell me, they totally misunderstood me you know, this is a whole, whole mistake here, this is a whole fucking mistake, but I can't explain it and they don't want to listen to me, you know, you know this, no they didn't, they didn't listen to me, you can't help it, I couldn't explain it, but business is business, and then there's fucking this other time, this fucking town, they didn't want to let me out, they didn't want to let me telephone you directly, these bastards, these bastards stuck me in here and I wanted to talk to my lawyer, now I'm totally pissed, man, you're the first guy I've met since I, since I got here, now what, what should I do? Look, maybe you can help me out here, maybe you can get me out of here, the hell with the girl, I don't care who you are, I run 10 kilometers a day, and they put me down for a nice, nice long stay, anyway now I'm here for a while now, you know, I'll just have a good time. (There is more after this but I can't find it on the internet, and I can't hear it)
