Song: Never Meant Artist: Owen Album: Owen/The Rutabega Split Tuning: Eb-G-Bb-F-Bb-D (no capo) Tabbed: andrewgioia [at] gmail [dot] com Notes: - The timing isn't shown exactly on the tab, so listen to get that correctly. - All of the notes on the 4th fret of Eb can be replaced with an open note on G. The open on G is a little easier to play. - This isn't exactly how Mike plays it (especially with the intro, where he plays some bar chords for the bass line that I couldn't figure out) as the clips on Youtube show otherwise in some spots, but it sounds dead on. - I didn't tab out Guitar 2's picking overlay during the intro and break, but those are just fills. - I also couldn't get the ending riff before the outro, as it sounds like 2 guitars going. - The notes shown as (0) are optional, and just mimic the bass line Mike plays in the background then. - Notes with an "h" after them should be hammered, those with a "p" after them are pulled, and "s" means slide up to that note. - Enjoy! And please send any corrections. ------ Intro: ------ D |----3-------3----------------------3-------3-----------------| Bb|-----0-------2-----54h0p------------0-------2-----54h0p------| F |------0------------------------------0-----------------------| Bb|-------------------------------------------------------------| G |-------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--0-------2------4-------2-------0-------2------4--------2---| Let's just forget everything said D |----3-------3----------------------3-------3-----------------| Bb|-----0-------2-----54h0p------------0-------2-----54h0p------| F |------0------------------------------0-----------------------| Bb|-------------------------------------------------------------| G |-------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--0-------2------4-------2-------0-------2------4--------2---| everything we did best friends, and better halves. ------ Break: ------ D |-------0----(G2 picking)------------3-----(G2 picking)-------| Bb|------0----------------------------0-------------------------| F |-----2----------------------------2--------------------------| Bb|----0----------------------------0---------------------------| G |---0----------------------------0----------------------------| Eb|--0----------------------------0-----------------------------| Goodbyes and the other night, when we D |-------3----------------------------0------------------------| Bb|------0----------------------------0-------------------------| F |-----2----------------------------2--------------------------| Bb|----0----------------------------0---------------------------| G |---0----------------------------0----------------------------| Eb|--0----------------------------0-----------------------------| re-a-lized we were falling out of ------- Bridge: ------- D |-----31h0p---------31h0p---------31h0p---------31h0p---------| Bb|-----------0-------------0-------------0-------------0-------| F |-------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|---0-------------0-------------0-------------0---------------| G |--0-------------0-------------0-------------0----------------| Eb|-------------------------------------------------------------| love...

Note: those last 5 bars are just a little extra that kind of sounds fuller; Mike layers at least one other guitar track over top that I can't really figure out.
