Subject: TAB: James "Laid"

(Let me throw in a quickie request for tab to 'five-o' and 'heavens' by james
and nirvana's 'lounge act' to anybody who might just know a place to start....)

Hiya.  I've just heard a live nonplugged version of 'laid' (off the 'say
something' cd single) and here's my best guess....

Chord Formations:  (Wow, only THREE chords!)
C	[x 3 2 0 1 0]		C/F	[x 3 3 0 1 0]
G	[3 2 0 0 3 3]

	(Plugless version)

INTRO: Main riff three times, then Chorus riff once.

Same for verses, main riff 3 times, then chorus:

C        C/F   C    G
This bed is on fire with passion and love
C        C/F     C        G
The neighbors complain about the noises above
C      C/F   C      G
But she only comes when she's on top

C            G
