Liz Phair Guitar Tab: Shane

CAPO I to match Girly Sound recording
CAPO II to match Whip-Smart recording

Some Notes

I didn't really tab this according to the timing of the chords; hopefully you can figure that out yourself.

Most of the Xs and 0s alternate in the recordings and can be added and omitted as you please. Some of the strings in the intro and verses (most the B and e strings) are not usually played either.

The little slide during the chorus is strummed and therefore includes some open notes from other strings; they were not tabbed out. The same applies for the slide in the post-chorus.

The box for the second chorus corresponds to the second line only; the box for the first chorus corresponds to the first line. Also, the box for the second chorus applies to the Whip-Smart version only. In the Girly Sound version, Liz repeats the same pattern as in the first chorus.

In the first box of the post-chorus, the last chord comes in after the line "you've gotta watch your ass" is sung and right before the "You've gotta have fear in your heart" part.

You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart...
