Under the Table

Dave Matthews Band
Tab
3.6(4)

This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

sax solo over G-F# pattern

----------------------------------------------

it's not too hard, and the only trouble i think you might have is either

going to be jangling the G-F# right (which takes practice) or dancing

like dave while playing this (which takes skill ;} ).

much of this is just what the other guy (95jds@williams.edu (Jon Stahl))

wrote, i just added the rest of the lyrics and the chords over them.

chords:

^^^^^^^

G: 3 5 5 4 3 3

F#: 2 4 4 3 2 2

A: x 0 2 2 2 0

D: x x 0 2 3 2

Does his teeth bite to eat an he's rolling

He never changes a thing

We look at each other

Wondering what the other is thinking

But we never say a thing

And these crimes between us grow deeper

Take these chances

Place them in a box Until a

Lights down you up and die

Verse

Goes to visit his mommy

She feeds him well

His concerns he forgets them

And remembers being small

Playing under the table and dreaming

All the little ants are marching

Bm/F# D G Bm A

Red and black antennae waving

Bm/F# D G Bm A

They all do it the same

Bm/F# D G Bm A

They all do it the same

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay-Yeah!

Candyman tempting the thoughts of a

Sweet tooth tortured by weight loss

Program cutting the corners there's a loose end loose end

Cut Cut

On the fence so not to offend

Cut Cut

Chorus

Bm/F# D G Bm A

Take these chances

Bm/F# D G Bm A

Place them in a box/Until a

Bm/F# D G Bm A

quieter time lights down you up and die

G D

Lights down you up and die

-----------------------------------------------------------

i can also hear a second guitar, playing just D-G/G-D on the verse

part, and i've seen the "all the ants are marching" section written

out as bass triads; G (3 2 0 x x x) D/F# (2 0 0 x x x) E (0 2 2 x x x).

it sounds good either way to me and in the end it's up to your ear.

chords:

Bm/F#: 2 2 4 4 3 2

A : x 0 2 2 2 0

G : 3 2 0 0 0 3 or 3 5 5 4 3 3

Has me tied up in knots

Soon I'm going I'm slippin' slow away

Hopeing to find something better than I've got inside of here

My love I love to stay here

My love I love to stay here

In a corner I was wondering

If a change could be better than this

And then I worry

Maybe things won't be better than they have been

Here at the warehouse

At the warehouse

At the warehouse

How I love to stay here

At the warehouse

Every man and woman

Get alive

SAX SOLO (continue CHORUS progression)

That's our blood down there

Seems poured from the hands of angels

But trickle into the ground

Leaves the warehouse bare and empty

My heart's numbered beat

Still echo in this empty room

Fear wells in me

But nothing seems enough to defend

So I'm going away

Here's the tab and words to this sweet song off of

"Under The Table And Dreaming" by DMB. Use your fingers

and slap the tops of the strings after each chord for

percussion (Listen to the song to get the timing right!)

"Pay For What You Get" - Dave Matthews Band

-transcribed by Steve Nazarian-

(snazaria@student.umass.edu)

BACK TO VERSE AND SO ON:

This is essentially the whole song (There are a couple variations

to these parts but nothing you can't figure out easily enough by

ear if you have to...) It would be a waste of time to write the same

parts over and over again (OKAY SO I'M LAZY!!!)

WORDS:

Work ourselves, fingers to the bone

Suck the marrow, drain my soul

Pay your dues, and your debts, Pay your respects

Everybody tells you You pay for what you get

Everybody asks me how's she doing

Has she really lost her mind?

I said, I couldn't tell you I've lost mine

Words, words, words, have you heard

A bird in hand is much better than

Any number free to wander Fly away...

Stay You pay for what you get

Everybody asks me how's she doing

Is she really all she says...

Everybody asks me how's she doing

Since she went away

I said, I couldn't tell you, I'm okay

Surprise, surprise

You pay for what you get

You pay for what you get

Everybody asks me how's she doing

Has she lost her...

Everybody asks me how's she doing

Since she went away

I said, I couldn't tell you, I'm okay, I'm okay

How are you? Pay for what you get

Pay for what you get... oh...

Pay for what you get

Pay for what you get... Oh...

********************************

so here's the breakdown: i went i d/l-ed all the DMB songs from UTTAD cd

and put them in one file, whatever wasn't done, or i thought was done

poorly, or could be done better (such as "what would you say?" or "ants

marching" i redid totally, keeping the style the original poster had.

there are minor edits, such as "satellite", where i removed the part that

said you needed string skipping (in the tab) and just put it in so it was

all on the bass strings of the guitar. all the songs are here, but some

are more complete than others, and i left both versions of "jimi thing"

in because they're different ways to play it, and it's really up to you.

some songs need obvious work (like my versions of "lover lay down" and

"#34") and i invite whoever is reading this to take a crack at it, or add

to the other songs, such as putting the lyrics over the tab to "pay for

what you get," or anything like that. all the tabs are credited,

including mine, but if you find your tab has been butchered and/or your

name is not on here, and it should be, write me and i'll fix it.

happy pickin'.

oh, and be nice to other people --they outnumber you 5.5billion to 1.
