Merry Go Bye Bye chords by Mr Bungle

Hello, this is a tablature for the chords to the song "Merry Go Bye Bye/Nothing" by Mr.
Bungle. After seeing the only other tab on the site for this song (which only had the
intro with incorrect chords) only having 3 stars, I tried it out and decided to redo it
by completing the rest of the song.

I was not sure on how to tab the noise parts because they are seemingly completely
random, and in live shows Mr. Bungle would usually play something different and random during
those parts. I'd say put whatever loud noise you want there.


Thanks, and give me a comment/correction if'n something's wrong. Have a good one.

Verse 1 (SONG TIME: 00:00):


-light, steady rhythm-


D
They're shining searchlights in the sky,

D7                              F#m
'Cause there's a new God in the sign...

                               G
It says their map is not their terrier work,

            Gm            D
And then I broke my telescope...

                G             A
But that's the nature of the game,

                 D
And you have to play...


Verse 2 (SONG TIME: 00:28):


-heavier sound-


                D  G                       D
Bring back the pain of a god that's never blue,

              G            F           C     D
You're in control of the whole damned universe!

                 D  G                            D
Bring back the shame and the bright lights on a few,

              Gm            D
It keeps me coming back to you!


Verse 3 (SONG TIME: 00:53):


-voice distortion-


D
The deaths were faked, the laughs were cries,

D7                           F#m
The resurrections are doing fine,


-voice distortion ends-

                         G
You got me walking into suicide...

             Gm                  D
And I'll be there right by your side,

         G                A
In reproduction at your merry go

F#
BYE BYE


-sudden screaming, metal- (SONG TIME: 1:19)


-noise- (SONG TIME: 2:22)


Verse 4 (Tablature Unknown; SONG TIME: 3:40):


-heavy vocals-


Here to paradise they go
Brighter made is their woe
As above, so below
(repeat x3)


Verse 5 (SONG TIME: 4:30):


-noise decreases light harmony kicks in; slightly different tone of verse 1-

D
We reached for an outside point of view

D7                               F#m
But its out of touch with me and you

                         G
I feel I'm walking into suicide

               Gm                D
But you'll be right there by my side

            G             A         D
To beam my message into space as I die


Final Verse (SONG TIME: 5:24):


-very slow grand finale, same chords as Verse 2-

                 D  G                        D
Bring back the shame of a man who follows through,

             Gm                 F     C       G
Get on your knees and I'll be coming back to you!

                D  G                         D
Bring back the pain of an inverse world for two,

              G      A      D
It keeps me coming back to you...


Song ends at 6:17 on the chord D, then proceeds into the hidden track "Nothing".

NOTHING by MR. BUNGLE ("written" by Danny Heifetz and Theo Lengye)

For "Nothing" there isn't any guitar to speak of, but, like the noise sections from
"Merry Go Bye Bye", you can pretty much go wild on it near the end.

The drums have a semblance of a rhythm until the vocals start screaming.

-drum hihat and snare-

-crashes heard in background-

"IT'S ALL ON TAPE"

-noise- -multiple expletives-

-trumpets everywhere-


Thanks for reading my tab. Have a nice day.
