Summer Here Kids - Grandaddy
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kaptin Ukraine
Email: pcvallin@mtu.edu
Tuning: Standard
Note: This ain't perfect, I can tell there is more dissonance going on, but I play it
this way on my acoustic and it sounds pretty decent. It's pretty much based around 16th
notes, that is to say, I am not gonna type out the rhythm, you may have to hit a chord or
note more times than written!
Intro:
Here's the scale run they do, on th' ivories or somethin'
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|-14--13--11--9-------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------11--10--8--6-----------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Here's a way to incorporate that scale run into the rhythm chords (if yer playing it alone!)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-6--5----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|-6--6--8--6--4--3----------------------------------------------------------| A|-4--4--4--4--4--4--6--4----------------------------------------------------| E|-------------2--2--2--2----------------------------------------------------|
Verse:
C#5 B5
After she lets you glide around
A5
Finally hit the ground
B5
Like a paper plane
C#5 B5
Take a trip, join me in the sun
A5
But not really though
B
Cause I ain't having fun
Chorus:
E5
Cause summer here kids
B5
Summer here totally lies
F#5 A5 B5
Tourist people said I'd have a good time
E5
Summer here kids
B5
All of them awful lies
F#5 C#m G# A
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
*repeat intro chords
Do as I didn't do because
I'm a picture of indumbivivity
Stay alone put a record on
Listen to the songs
Keep youself at home
Cause summer here kids
Summer here totally lies
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
Summer here kids
All of them awful lies
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
C#m G# A (repeat)
I'm not having a good time
*End on E
