Artist: The Replacements
Album: Tim (1985)(Track 1)
Tabbed By: Brandon Karcic
First tab. Pretty simple, awesome song. Thinking of playing it for my Berklee
audition, if I don't do "Left of the Dial". Be sure to pay attention to the song
for rhythms, especially on the verses.
Well, well, well I,
found it's [my life]
Down on all fives
Let me crawl
If I want, I
could dye (oh)
my hair
Time for decisions to be made
Crack up in the sun, lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
and hold my life
until I'm ready to use it
D Cm Bm (riff, see below)
Hold my life because I just might lose it
(riff)
Because I just might lose it
Riff for "Because I just might lose it"
D|-0-2-4-5-4-2-0-2-0-2
A|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
E|-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Well, well, well,
anyone could tell
pass it off
a lucky shot
Ooh, they do
hate 'em, someday soon,
face 'Em
Time for decisions to be made
Crack up in the sun, lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
and hold my life
until I'm ready to use it
D Cm Bm (riff)
Hold my life because I just might lose it
(riff)
Because I just might lose it
Just might, just might, just might...
We might crack up in the sun, or we'll lose it in the shade
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, drone, time for this one to come home
Razzle, dazzle, drazzle, die, time for this one to come alive
and hold my life
until I'm ready to use it
D Bm Cm (riff)
Hold my life because I just might lose it
(riff)
Because I just might lose it
I want you to hold my life
Get ready to hold my life
Hold my, hold my, hold my, hold my...
Close on D
There ya go.
Merry Christmas, fellow 'Mats fans.
