We Get On

Kate Nash

Text File

Hey. This is my first tab (is it just me, or does it ALWAYS seem to be everybody's first tab
on this site?)

But yeah. This is a tab of the demo version of We Get On, which is just Kate and her piano.
Obviously I couldn't transcribe it perfectly, seeing as a piano is a very different instrument
to a guitar, but I think I've got the general gist.

Here's the intro and pretty much everything else though.

(NOTE: This song can also be played with a capo on the second fret (but keep the fingering 
the same, do not assume the tab is relative to the capo), as I'm aware the initial 
positioning is quite tricky.)

Simply knowing you exist ain't good enough for me
But asking for your telephone number seems highly inappropriate

Seeing as I can't even say "hi" when you walk by
And that time you shook my hand, it felt so nice
I swear I've never felt this way about any other guy
and I never usually notice people's eyes, but...

I conducted a plan
To bump into you most accidentally, but...
I was walking along, and I bumped into you much more heavily than I'd originally planned
It was well embarrassing, and
I think you thought that I was a bit of a twat

I just think that we'd get on
I wish I could tell you face to face
instead of singing this stupid song
but yeah I just think that we might get on

(For this next bit, either strum C G Am F ten times, or:)

So I went to that party
everyone they were kind of arty
And I was wearing this dress
'cause I wanted to impress
I wasn't sure if I look my best
'cause I was so nervous
But I carried on regardless
strutting through each room
trying to find you

And when I saw you kissing that girl
My heart, it shattered
and my eyes, they watered
and when I tried to speak I stuttered

And my friends were like "Whatever,
you'll find someone better,
his eyes are way too close together
and we never even liked him from the start.
And now he's with that tart,
I heard she'd done some really nasty stuff
down in the park with Michael.
He said she's easy
and if your guys are with someone who's that's sleazy
then he ain't worth your time
cause you deserve a real nice guy"

So I proceeded to get drunk and to cry
and I locked myself in the toilets the entire night

(Then back to:)

Saturday night, I watch Channel 5
I particularly like CSI
I don't ever dream about you and me
I don't ever make up stuff about us that would be considered insanity

I don't ever drive by your house to see if you're in
I don't even have an opinion on that tramp that you are still seeing
I don't know your timetable
I don't know your face off by heart
But I must admit that there is a part that still thinks that we might get on
We might get on

It's undoubtedly a bit rough around the edges, but it works as a reasonable guitar accompaniment.
And it's a beautiful song to play and sing, and that's always nice.

:)

Hope this helped a little.
