[email protected] claims that his version of "Tired of Sex" is
correct, but I have to disagree. He's posted the verse, but there's a lot
more to the song than that.
"Tired of Sex" by Weezer
from the album "Pinkerton."
Tuning: Tune to Eb
(Eb, Ab, Db, Gb)
Here are the three main parts of the song:
Gb ——————————————————————————————————|
Db ——————————————————————————————————| verse
Ab ————————5———5—7—5—————————————————|
Eb ——3——3————————————8—7—————————————|
Gb ——————————————————————————————————|
Db ——————————————————————————————————| chorus A
Ab ——————————3—3—3—3—5—5—5—5—7—7—7—7—|
Eb ——3—3—3—3—————————————————————————|
Gb ——————————————————————————————————|
Db ——5—5—5—5—————————————————————————| chorus B
Ab ——————————3—3—3—3—5—5—5—5—7—7—7—7—|
Eb ——————————————————————————————————|
Bass intro:
Eb ———/10———
(slide up to the 10th fret on the E string,
then slide down and start the first verse.)
Play verse 10x
Chorus:
A A B
I guess you could call this a "post—chorus"
(played right after the first chorus):
("Why can't I be making love come true?")
Gb ————————————————————————————————————————|
Db ————————————————————————————————————————|
Ab ———————————3——2—————————————————————————|
Eb ——1—1—1—1————————5——————————————————————|
Play verse 10x
Chorus:
A B A
Post—chorus:
("Why can't I...") Very fast after you hit the high E.
Gb ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
Db ——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————|
Ab ————————————3333—2222—————————————————————————————————————————|
Eb ——11111111————————————55555555/12 12 12 12/19 19 19 19————————|
Solo:
Play verse 4x
Chorus:
A B A
The B chorus is different here. From what I can tell, Matt slides
between the 5 and 7 on the A string, like this:
Gb ——————————————————————————————————|
Db ——5—5—5—5—————————————————————————|
Ab ——————————3—3—3—3—5—5—5—5—/75/7——|
Eb ——————————————————————————————————|
Followed by the final post—chorus:
Ritard (slow down...)
Gb ——————————————————————————————————|
Db ——————————————————————————————————|
Ab ———————————3——2———————————————————|
Eb ——1—1—1—1————————5——0——7——————————|
Outro:
Eb ——3/10—3/10———
Then the verse 4x and end on the G.
So, the basic layout of the song would be:
Intro
Verse
Chorus
Verse
Chorus
Solo
Chorus
Verse (Outro)
That, my friends, is the bass tab to "Tired of Sex." At least, I think
so. But, if you don't agree, or you just want to praise me for my
