For Tammy Rae by Bikini Kill
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Closing track to Bikini Kill's 1993 debut album, 'Pussy Whipped'. Really beautiful song,
and it's nothing but a couple of power chords. You can play them as barre chords if you
want, but it doesn't really matter here. Riff BB is played throughout every verse and

Riff A augmentedA is the intro and is also used as a bridge. The bridge ends with Riff C, goes back to

Riff B, and Riff D MajorD is the outro. This is a cake walk if you've been playing guitar for
awhile, but a great track no less and really, really pretty. Good for beginners who want
to play a love song, Olympia riot grrrl style of course. But really, it is very mellow
and affectionate, listen to the song for the exact timing.

Riff BB
    Past the billboards and the magazines
    I dream about being with you
    We can't hear a word they say
    Let's pretend we own the world today


Riff BB
    I know it's cold outside
    But when we're together, I have nothing to hide
    Hold on tight, I will never let you down
    It can't rain on our side of town

Riff BB
    Wipe the sweat from my hair
    Tell me we're not better off
    Wipe the tears from my face
    The sunny side of the street where we are
