Song
Artist: Sheryl Crow
Song: Anything But Down
Album: The Globe Sessions.
Tabbed by Gemini.
Hi there! This is the first time that I'm tabbing, so bear with me.
I am also a musician and maybe someday you'll be tabbing my
songs…. (hey, wishful thinking never hurt anyone!). Well, here goes:
Tuning: standard (E A D G B E)
There are parts for two guitars here, but it sounds ok if you play only Guitar
1's (G1) part too, which is what I do. Or if you can find
a friend then they can play Guitar 2 (G2), a lead.
Weird chords:
E |----0---| B |----0---| G |----2---| D |----0---| A |----0---| E |----2---|
'p': pull off
'h': hammer on
'B': bend
's': slide
Intro: (G1) Em x 8 bars (32 beats)
Intro: (G2)

Verse 1
I light your cigarette, I bring you apples from the vine
How quickly you forget, I run the bath and pour the wine
I bring you everything that floats into your mind
Chorus
Now you don’t bring me anything but down
Now you don’t bring me anything but down
Now you don’t bring me anything but down
When you come round
Verse 2
You are a raging sea, I pull myself out everyday
I plea insanity, ‘cause I can't leave and I can't stay
You say won’t you come find me and yes is what I’ll say
Chorus
You don’t bring me anything but down
You don’t bring me anything but down
And everything is crashing to the ground
Bridge
Maybe I'm not the perfect kind
Maybe I’m not what you had in mind
And maybe we’re just killing time

(high e, the thinnest string)
Verse 3
You with your silky words, and your eyes of green and blue
You with your steel beliefs that don’t match anything you do
You were so much easier before you became you.
Chorus
You don’t bring me anything but down.
You don’t bring me anything but down.
And everything just crashes to the ground.
When you come around.
When you come around ..
Well no more playing seek and hide,
No more long and wasted nights,
Can't you make it easy on yourself.
Well I know you wish you were strong,
You wish you were never wrong,
G F Am (end by strumming once down on the Am cord.)
Well I got some wishes of my own.
Thanks for your patience and enjoy the song. Any queries, comments,
