Since there was only a Guitar Pro version of this song available and since
I have a ridiculously stupid job with lots of time to kill and my acoustic
guitar (my beautiful Franny) on hand, I'd spend a few moments and tab this
song. Oh Yeah, Pavement is one of the best bands ever!
Intro Lead Guitar: This is repeated twice in the beginning and on the
second time through the ending is slightly different, it looks like this
instead: G-----4-6b-4~~--|
D-4h6-----------|
This is played over the verse chords (It's basically the same progression
for the whole song, except that little bridge tab.)

Darling, we're up against it and there is no time for tie-ins, tie, ins,
tie-ins GO!
USE THE TAB FOR THE BRIDGE PRESENTED EARLIER.
They will wear you down sometimes, kiss the wine, magic christians chew
the rind Cause bad girls, Are always bad girls LET EM IN!
That should do it. I tried to provide all the fills and such for the most
part and I hope I didn't make it overly complicated. I usually just play
power chords but the full chords sound great too.
ENJOY.
