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

Song

Not Ready Yet by the Eels

Off Beautiful Freak.

Tabbed: Mark Lynch (rlynch@iol.ie)

Any additions/corrections let me know.

Capo 7th Fret (kinda awkward without it!)

This is the intro riff, but it's played through most of the song. I'm

not sure what the chords being played are but Em Bm D seems to work.

there's a world outside

and i know 'cause i've heard talk

in my sweetest dream

i would go out for a walk

but i don't think i'm ready yet

i'm not feeling up to it now

just not that steady yet

and i don't need you telling me how

there's some happiness

and my stone face cracks again

maybe sometime sooner or later

but i don't think i'm ready yet

i'm not feeling up to it now

just not that steady yet

and i don't need you telling me how

so if i leave my room

don't you tell me to lighten up

maybe sometime sooner or later

but i don't think i'm ready yet

i'm not feeling up to it now

just not that steady yet

and i don't need you telling me how
