Tab: "All Things in Time," by Toad the Wet Sprocket
Transcribed by Michael A. Mazur (mmazur@wpi.edu)

Intro: Guitar 1, acoustic, plays chords
Guitar 2 is an electric, capoed at 5. It plays the tab below

   Cadd9          G/B               Cadd9
|-----------5--|-----------------|-----------5--|
|--------------|-----------5--3--|-----------3--|
|--------------|-----------------|--------------|
|-----0--------|-----0-----------|-----0--------|
|---------0----|--------0--------|--------0-----|
|--3-----------|--2--------------|--3-----------|

   G/B
|-------------------|
|----------------5--|
|-----------2h4-----|  *When recalled, these four measures are
|-----0-------------|   played slightly differently. Measures
|--------0----------|   3-4 are played first, followed by 1 and 2.
|--2----------------|

Verse: Guitar 1 continues with chords. For the Cadd9-G/B progression,
Guitar 2 repeats the first two measures of the intro. For the rest
of the verse, it doubles the chords played by Guitar 1, but, because
of the capo, the fretted notes are a fourth lower than sounding.

Cadd9               G/B
call me up when you need

Cadd9             G/B
strangers often deceive

            A7sus4       A7
and there's something so freeing

              C
to call out a name

    D
and someone's believing

i've been changing my mind
through with looking behind
it's a crash course in life
the best you can do is get by
no getting out alive


Chorus:

G     F              C       Am
         i'll hold a light      for you to see

G     F                C     D
         all things in time,    all you'll ever need

Repeat the intro once, but Guitar 2 reverses the order of the two
measures


Verse:
something i can't explain
keeps me running, afraid
and every day
looks me in the face and says
"who'd you think you were, anyway?"


Chorus:
if you'll hold a light for me to see
all things in time, all we'll ever need


Bridge:

G

C                    G
   well, you told me so

C                      G   D/F# - Em
   that we'd done this all before

        C              D
so what is it keeps us coming back for more?


G D/F# Am C


Chorus:
i'll hold a light for you to see
all things in time, all you'll ever need
all things in time, all we'll ever need


Ending: Repeat the intro twice, but Guitar 2 reverses the order of
the two measures it plays.
