Kevin Welch       Something About You    written by Kevin Welch

Artist/Band: Welch Kevin Guitar Chords/Tablatures
Song: Something About You Tablature for Guitar

An attempt to improve my chords version of this song.
Not at all perfect, but enough to play something very similar to
the recording.

Fret numbers are referred to a gtr capoed at the 5th fret.
Chord names are the true ones (actually you play the C with a G
fingering and so on). I know it's stupid but this the way it came out.

This the little solo at the beginning (NOT the slide gtr. part)

          C  C4    C     F                            C
---------------------------------3---2p0-----3---2h0--------------|
---0-1-3-------1-------------1-----1-----------1------3---1p0-----|
-0-----------------2h4-----0---0----------------------------------|
-------------2----------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|

 G             G7
------------------------------------------------------------------|
-3-----7----------5---5\--0---------------------------------------|
---------7-----/5---5---------------------------------------------|
----/7------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------|

During the verses I fingerpick something like:

  C                  F                   G
-------------------|-------------------|------------------|-------|
-----3--------3----|-----1--------1----|-----3-------3----|-------|
-------0--------0--|-------0--------0--|-------2-------2--|-------|
----------0--------|-------------------|-0----------------|-------|
-------------------|-3-----------------|---------0--------|-------|
--3----------------|---------3---------|------------------|-------|

You should try and blend together the two parts (arpeggio & solo);
that's not impossible (I do it), but it's difficult and boring to
tab out.


C
I don't want nobody better off alone
    F
I'm sworn to independence
                     C
My heart is  made of stone
                      G                           C
But your breaking on thru there's something about you
C
I've been tapping  my toes to the way you talk
           F                                     C
I've been singing along when I watch the way you walk
             G                 C
I've got to do something about you
G                             F
I got this place of mine it's nice and quiet
      C
And I like it fine
                                 G
I work real hard got no time for you

I've whiskeyed up my coffee cup
    F                          C
I'm sitting here trying not to call you up
                                             G
And it getting to where I don't know what to do
G7             C
Something bout you

SOLO

Dm                                       C
There something about you like distance thunder
Dm                       C
I can't say I ain't been warned
Dm                                   C
Even if there is no shelter to crawl under
D                                G
Heavens gonna  save me from this storm
                        C
There's something about you babe I can't shake
        F                                          C
There's something about you that's been keeping me awake
                G                     C
The whole night thru  something about you
G                             F
I got this life  of mine it's nice and quiet
      C
And I like it fine
                                 G
I work real hard got no time for you

I've whiskeyed up my coffee cup
    F                          C
I'm sitting here trying not to call you up
                                             G
And it getting to where I don't know what to do
G7             C
Something bout you


That's all, folks.
I hope it helps.
