SONG TITLE: Fuzzy
ARTIST/GROUP: Grant Lee Buffalo
ALBUM: Fuzzy
TRANSCRIBED BY: qualitytabs@qualitytabs.tk

CHORDS: [tune one note (half step) down]
-------
EADGBE
D5/A (x0023x) or (x00230)
F#m (244222)
E (022100)
E7 (022130)
This is just one of the greatest songs ever!! I love it! I would
say it was one of the top 5 songs ever written!
You must tune your guitar one note (half step) down to play along
with the cd.
In this song there are two acoustic guitars playing the rhythm,
they play almost the same things, and then there are two electric
guitars who play the solo, they also play almost the same things
but not quite. That makes it sound great, but you can easily play
it all on one guitar. I just bought the CD with this song. I might
make a mp3 for you and put it on my site if I could figure out how
to do it. Enjoy the song!!
OK, the thing you must know is that whenever you play
D5/A you play it like this:
D5/A:
E|-----(0)-----(0)-----(0)-----(0)---|
B|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--|
G|--2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2--|
D|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|
A|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|
E|-----------------------------------|
The notes in () are sometimes heard. You should just let
the open high E string ring out every once in a while, it
doesn't have to be exact. It sounds best if you just play
it kinda sloppy. And it's important that you play the A
string, that's what gives it this cool sound. The rhythm
is kind of a blues shuffle rhythm, listen to it to hear it.
Sometimes it sounds like he always plays the high E. I think
one guitar plays this chord (x00230) and the other takes care
of the blues shuffle thingy. If you think it sounds better
you could try playing the D5/A chord like this:
D5/A:
E|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--|
B|--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--| I personally use the
G|--2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2-2-2-4-2--| first one and just let
D|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--| the high E ring out
A|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--| occasionally.
E|-----------------------------------|
INTRO:
------
D5/A F#m D5/A F#m
[the E chord in the verses is really just a transition chord
between the F#m and D5/A chord, just strum it once]
VERSE 1:
--------
D5/A
Bring me home
F#m
To this house of many days
F#m E D5/A
Just lay me on the floor
F#m
Hard and cool as slate
F#m E D5/A
You know I love it more and more
F#m
Than before I ran away
F#m E D5/A
It triggers off so many hurts
F#m
Hurtful words and broken plates
CHORUS:
-------
E7 [I'm sure he plays an E7 there, because
I've been lied to you can hear him picking out the 7th
F#m note many times, but when I'm playing
Now I'm Fuzzy it, I just strum a regular E chord
E7 instead, because it just sounds better
I've been lied to to me. So try both and see what you
think]
VERSE 2:
--------
D5/A
All and all
F#m
The world is small enough for both of us
F#m E D5/A
To meet upon the interstate
F#m
Waiting on a train
F#m E D5/A
And just when those big arms lift up
F#m
Fall in love with no time to say it
CHORUS:
-------
E7
And I would have liked to
F#m
Now I'm Fuzzy
E7
I would have liked to
F#m
Now I'm fuzzy
Fuzzy now
GUITAR-SOLO:
------------
Few notes about the solo: First of all the solo is played
by two electric guitars who are almost playing the same thing
but not quite. This sounds really cool, but I've tried to
transcribe it for only one guitar. Second, remember that
all the bends in the solo are really slow and easy.
b = bend note
D5/A F#m r = release bend

VERSE 3:
--------
D5/A
Here we are
In our car
F#m
Driving down the street
F#m E D5/A
We're looking for a place to stop
F#m
Have a bite to eat
F#m E D5/A
We hunger for a bit of faith
F#m
To replace the fear
F#m E D5/A
We water like a dead bouquet
F#m
It does no good does it dear
CHORUS:
-------
E7
And I've been lied to
F#m
Now I'm Fuzzy
E7
We've been lied to
F#m
Now we're Fuzzy
Fuzzy now
E7
Lied to
OUTRO:
------
Just play the first part of the solo, and then some small
variations on that, and fade out...
