Eels 3-Speed From Electro-Shock Blues This is a song that I love but I've never seen a convincing tab of online. Standard tuning EADGBe CAPO AT 7TH FRET - chords are transposed (i.e. first chord I've named C is strictly a G) EADGBe C - x3201x C* - x32013 (during the solo) Gsus/B - x2001x Gsus/B* - x20013 (during the solo) F - xx321x G - xx000x (sometimes sounds like xx0003) Am - x0221x D5 - xx023x (sometimes sounds like Dm xx0231 or D xx0232) This is a beautiful plaintively strummed song that mostly only uses the middle 4 strings the guitar, although around and during the solo section it sounds like he lets the high e string ring out occasionally, as shown above. Listen to the record and see what you think. C Gsus/B got a 3 speed and banana seat C Gsus/B sitting back on the sissy bar C Gsus/B went to sev and got a drink C Gsus/B wish i was driving in daddy's car F G and i looked up at the sky last night Am D5 and i thought i saw a bomb F G C Gsus/B and why won't you just tell me what's going on? C Gsus/B riding down on springhill road C Gsus/B meeting alfred out in the woods C Gsus/B dogs bark and mosquitos bite C Gsus/B scratching the itch that makes it feel good F G and i looked into the mirror last night Am D all i saw was a pretty blonde F G C Gsus/B and why won't you just tell me what's going on? Am life is funny D5 but not ha ha funny F C Gsus/B peculiar i guess Am D5 you think i got it all going my way F G then why am i such a fucking mess? During solo: C* Gsus/B* (repeat 4 times) (the solo can be played a few ways, I think it's on the G and B strings. I may add this later) C Gsus/B want a pony and a birthday cake C Gsus/B want a party with a scary clown C Gsus/B kneel down and bow to the princess C Gsus/B kneel down for the queen of the town F G and i looked up at the sky last night Am D5 and i thought i saw a bomb F G C Gsus/B C and why won't you just tell me what's going on? Gsus/B C tell me what's going on Gsus/B C Gsus/B C (repeat to fade) My first ever tab, any comments/advice/insults most welcome :) kartpete@hotmail.com
