I think these chord shapes are the easiest way to play this song, so I've tabbed it how I played it. Nearly all barre chords, but easy enough if you can change chords quickly. = 688766 = x57765 = x46654 = x35543 = 133211 = x13331 = xx5343 = x13231 = xx2323 = 355433 = 355333 = x35553 ************************************************************************************** INTRO Oh lighten up, where's your sense of humor? They're just tiny little rumors That I started 'cause I'm lookin' out for you. Oh settle down, I'm just a little jealous, And I'm sure those other fellas Never once believed the lies I told were true. Like the time I told that cowboy that you used to be a man, And the doctor you were datin' that you hide your wedding band. Even if I am responsible for scaring them away, You really ought to thank me, I was doin' you a favour, 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway. Oh can't you see, the reason that I'm doin' All the crazy things I'm doin', Is because I really care about you girl. And I'll admit I go a little farther Than I know I probably oughta, But it's all because I need you in my world. Like the time I told that lawyer that you spent a year in jail, And the salesman you were seein' you hang out at cheap motels. Even if I am responsible for scaring them away, You really ought to thank me, I was doin' you a favour, 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway. INSTRUMENTAL I can't stand the thought of you with anybody else, I know I've gone overboard but I can't help myself. Like the time I told that dentist you had seven little kids, And you doubled as a dancer at the strip joint on the ridge. Even if I am responsible for scaring him away, You really ought to thank me, I was doin' you a favour, 'Cause it never woulda worked out anyway. It's all because I love you and I can't stop thinkin' of you, And it never woulda worked out anyway. ************************************************************************************** / = slide up p = pulloff h = hammer-on \ = slide down ************************************************************************************** INTRO (AND THROUGHOUT SONG) E------6-5--4--3--------------| B-----6---6--5--6-4p3-4-3------------| G--6/7-----7--6------5---5-4-3-3h5----| D-----------------------------5---3---| A-------------------------------| E-----------------------------| LEAD GUITAR SOLO (halfway through instrumental) E--6-3---------------------------------1-------3- B-----6-3------------4-3-------------4-----5-4/5-4p2-4-2/3-2-----1-3-4\3---4-- G--------6-5-3----------5-4p3------------4-----6---------3-------3---2-------4/5--- D-------------5-4-3----------5-4p3------------5------------2/3------------ A----------------------------4/5-5/6--6/7------------ E----------------------------------------- E--5p4-3----------------------------------6---| B-------6-5p4-3----------------------3-3-4/6--6---| G------------5--5-3---------3-3-5p3h5-5-------6---| D--------------7-5-5/6-5p3h5-5------------5---| A------------------------------| E--------------------------------------------| ENDING E------6-5--4--3------------------------| B-----6---6--5--6-4p3-3p2p1------------3---| G--6/7-----7--6------5-----3p1p0-3p1p0-------3---| D-----------------------------------3p1p0--3---| A-------------------------------1-1---| E-------------------------------------|

À propos de la chanson

La chanson raconte l'histoire d'une personne qui, par jalousie et inquiétude, invente des rumeurs sur son ex pour éloigner d’éventuels prétendants. Même si ces mensonges lui font du tort, il estime qu'il agit par amour, convaincu que ces relations n'auraient pas duré de toute manière. Au fond, il souhaite protéger la personne aimée, même si ses actions semblent excessives. Le contexte évoque des sentiments complexes liés aux relations amoureuses, où l'attachement peut parfois mener à des comportements irrationnels. Cela nous rappelle la vulnérabilité que chacun ressent face à l'amour et la peur de perdre l'autre.
