Tired Of Sex bass tab by Weezer

aldog@concentric.net claims that his version of "Tired of Sex" is
correct, but I have to disagree. He's posted the verse, but there's a lot
more to the song than that.

		     "Tired of Sex" by Weezer
			from the album "Pinkerton."
			   Tuning: Tune to Eb
			   (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb)

Here are the three main parts of the song:
   Gb ----------------------------------|
   Db ----------------------------------| verse
   Ab --------5---5-7-5-----------------|
   Eb --3--3------------8-7-------------|

   Gb ----------------------------------|
   Db ----------------------------------| chorus A
   Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|
   Eb --3-3-3-3-------------------------|

   Gb ----------------------------------|
   Db --5-5-5-5-------------------------| chorus B
   Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|
   Eb ----------------------------------|

Bass intro:
   Eb ---/10\---
(slide up to the 10th fret on the E string,
then slide down and start the first verse.)

Play verse 10x

Chorus:
A A B

I guess you could call this a "post-chorus"
(played right after the first chorus):

    ("Why can't I be making love come true?")
   Gb ----------------------------------------|
   Db ----------------------------------------|
   Ab -----------3--2-------------------------|
   Eb --1-1-1-1--------5----------------------|

Play verse 10x

Chorus:
A B A

Post-chorus:
    ("Why can't I...")     Very fast after you hit the high E.
   Gb --------------------------------------------------------------|
   Db --------------------------------------------------------------|
   Ab ------------3333-2222-----------------------------------------|
   Eb --11111111------------55555555/12 12 12 12/19 19 19 19--------|

Solo:
Play verse 4x

Chorus:
A B A

The B chorus is different here. From what I can tell, Matt slides
between the 5 and 7 on the A string, like this:

   Gb ----------------------------------|
   Db --5-5-5-5-------------------------|
   Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-/7\5/7--|
   Eb ----------------------------------|

Followed by the final post-chorus:

      Ritard (slow down...)
   Gb ----------------------------------|
   Db ----------------------------------|
   Ab -----------3--2-------------------|
   Eb --1-1-1-1--------5--0--7----------|

Outro:

   Eb --3/10\-3/10\---

Then the verse 4x and end on the G.

So, the basic layout of the song would be:

   Intro
   Verse
   Chorus
   Verse
   Chorus
   Solo
   Chorus
   Verse (Outro)

That, my friends, is the bass tab to "Tired of Sex." At least, I think
so. But, if you don't agree, or you just want to praise me for my
wonderful piece of work, send any comments/questions/corrections to:
