Down Boy Tab by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Down Boy tab by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Guitar Tab

i don't know if this is one hundred percent right. i just listened to it on the rockers
swallow dvd and guess-and-checked. sounds just about right though. please correct me if
wrong. lyrics from rockerstoswallow.tk  with some changes due to what's sung on the dvd.
never heard a studio recording. please send me a file of it if you have one. that'd be
if anyone knows the name of the style/effect of piano nick uses on his keyboard
the verses please share it with me. even more dandy.
there's a way to strum through all of the first part of the chorus. just mute unwanted
with the index finger and the thumb when needed. your index should automatically mute the
e string. finger the chords with middle, ring, and pinky. experiment.
first tab. enjoy.

No fame
All there is
All there was
On the second lady
Can't take a cent
Take a cut of that
Kind of ran
I'll stand kind of pushed
Kind of bent
On that heavy land
I'll stand for the sake of my friend
I will see him there

(do part two again)

The same
Not begin
Not give up
In a better way
Again
wash the stain
Off his bed
Not to split them off
I'll stand for the sake of my friend
I will see him there
Well I will see him there

CHORUS PART I & II
(pretty much the same as the last with some minor variations. i'm sure you could figure
out by yourself.)
