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

Afghan Whigs - Be Sweet
Picked this up after seeing them at Reading '94
Lee Bochicchio (u2lb@csc.liv.ac.uk)
Intro/Verse
(repeat x4, on 4th time add extra note)
e|-----------------------------------------|---------------| B|-----------------------------------------|---------------| G|---10--10-----9---9----------------------|---------------| D|---12--12----10--10-----7---------7------|--8------------| A|---------------------------8---------8---|---------------| E|-------------------------------6---------|---------------|
Ladies, let me tell you...
Bridge/Whatever You Call It
(play twice) (let ring)
e|--1--1--1----0--0--0----0------------------| B|--2--2--2----1--1--1----3------------------| Back into verse... G|--3--3--3----2--2--2----2------------------| D|--3--3--3----2--2--2-----------------------| A|--1--1--1----0--0--0-----------------------| E|-------------------------------------------|
The solo is played on the e,B,G strings at around about the 12th fret down to
the 9th? It's a bit haphazard, and difficult to follow, but using the
following fingering you should be able to come up with something similar...
E A D G B e
-----------
1 1 1 9th fr.

2 -| lift/press these fingers at
----------- --------------------------------------------------| the appropriate points to get
3 -|------------- a reasonable version of the solo--|
----------- --------------------------------------------------| a little futher into the solo, slide
4 -| about 4 frets up un the neck (12) - I think!
----------- If anyone has a more accurate tab than this, let
me know!

The song proceeds verse/chorus etc.
The end part (best bit IMHO) is :
(strum pretty loosely - listen to the record, you'll get the idea)
e|-------------1--1--1------5--5--5-------8---8---8-----------| B|-------------2--2--2------6--6--6-------8---8---8-----------| G|-------------3--3--3------7--7--7-------9---9---9-----------| D|-------------3--3--3------7--7--7-------10--10--10----------| A|-------------1--1--1------5--5--5-------10--10--10----------| E|----------------------------------------8---8---8-----------|
...you be sweet, be sweet, be sweet...
