---------------------------------------------- Tabbet by Daniel Olsen This tab is as close as I could get it. I have included some comments in the bottom with regards to the parts of the song that I couldn't quite get right. Any help would be much appreciated. ---------------------------------------------- Capo 2 Standard Tuning Chords: FGCADE e|-1---3---0---0---1---0--| B|-1---3---1---1---3---0--| G|-2---0---0---2---2---1--| D|-3---0---2---2---0---2--| A|-3---2---3---0---0---2--| E|-1---3---0---X---X---0--| Verse: F G C Am Dm I'm a man of reason, and they say "'Tis the season to be jolly" G C E But it's folly when you volley for position F G C Am Never in existence has there been such a resistance Dm G To ideas meant to free us C E If you could see us, then you'd listen F G C Am Toiling through the ages, making toys on garnished wages Dm There's no union G C E We're only through when we out do the competition Chorus: F G C E I make toys, but I've got aspirations F G C Make some noise E Use your imagination F G C E Dm Girls and boys, before you wish for what you wish for G There's a list for who's been Dm C F G C Naughty or nice, but consider the price to an elf Verse: F G C Am A full indentured servitude can reflect on one's attitude Dm G C E But that silly red hat just makes the fat man look outrageous F G C Am Absurd though it may seem, you know, I've heard there's even been illegal doping Dm G C E And though we're coping, I just hope it's not contagious F G C Am You try to start a movement, and you think you see improvement Dm G C E But when thrown into the moment, we just don't seem so courageous Chorus: F G C E I make toys, but I've got aspirations F G C Make some noise E Use your imagination F G C E Dm Girls and boys, before you wish for what you wish for G There's a list for who's been Dm C F G C Naughty or nice, but consider the price to an elf Bridge: C G You look at yourself You're an elf Am F Am And the shelf is just filled with disappointing memories C G Am Trends come and go, and your friends wanna know C Am C why you aren't just happy making crappy little gizmos F G C Every kid knows they'll just throw this stuff away Verse: F G C Am We're used to repetition, so we drew up a petition Dm G We, the undersigned, feel undermined C E Let's redefine "employment" F G C Am We know that we've got leverage, so we'll hand the fat man a beverage Dm G C E And sit back while we attack the utter lack of our enjoyment F G C Am It may be tough to swallow, but our threats are far from hollow Dm G C E He may thunder, but if he blunders, he may wonder where the toys went Chorus: F G C E I make toys, but I've got aspirations F G C Make some noise E Use your imagination F G C E Dm Girls and boys, before you wish for what you wish for G There's a list for who's been Dm C F G Naughty or nice, but consider the price Dm C F G Naughty or nice, but consider the price Dm C F G C Naughty or nice, but consider the price to an elf END! ------------------------------------------------------------ I'm having some problems with two places in this song (both in the bridge section): Am F Am And the shelf is just filled with disappointing memories Last chord doesn't sound quite right, but as close as I could get it. And the next part: C G Am Trends come and go, and your friends wanna know C Am C why you aren't just happy making crappy little gizmos The "happy making crappy little gizmos part" part sounds like its missing something. Please comment if you have any ideas on how to play this properly and I'll update the tab. ------------------------------------------------------------
