Matchbox20 - Hang guitar tab

Band : Matchbox 20

Song : Hang

Album : Yourself or Someone like you

Tuning : Normal - No Capo

Transcribed by: Steven Batchelder

Corrected by : Don Kurelich

I'm improving on the basic transcription that SB did. It was basicaly

there, but some of the chords were wrong and I'm showing a few

enhancements. These are subtle changes in the basic chords and a

change in strum. The chord differences are noted below and change

only the tone of what's being played. The strum in the intro and first

verse is using your fingers (i.e. no pick, either your thumb or first

finger). At the second verse he switches to a flat pick.

Chords:

G* G* C* CaddG Em* Em D

E:|--3-- --3-- --3-- ----- --3-- ----- --2--

B:|--3-- ----- --3-- --1-- --3-- ----- --3--

G:|----- ----- ----- ----- ----- ----- --2--

D:|----- ----- --2-- --2-- --2-- --2-- -----

A:|--2-- --2-- --3-- --3-- --2-- --2-- -----

E:|--3-- --3-- ----- --3-- ----- ----- -----

(*With finger strum*)

Intro: G* C* (play 2 times)

G* C*

She grabs her magazines, she packs her things and she goes.

Em* D G* C*

She leaves the pictures hangin' on the wall. She burns all her notes

G* D CaddG

And she knows, she's been here too few years, to feel this old.

(Switch to flat pick)

G* C*

He smokes his cigarette, he stays outside 'til it's gone.

Em* D G* C*

If anybody ever had a heart, well, he wouldn't be alone.

G D CaddG

He knows, she's been here too few years, to be gone.

D G Am CaddG G Am CaddG

And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday,

Em D

But if there's nothin' there to make things change,

CaddG CaddG (hammer-on E)

if it's the same for you I'll just hang.

Solo fill: G, CaddG (notice switch to G)

G CaddG

The trouble understand, is she's got reasons he don't.

Em D G CaddG

Funny how I couldn't see it all, 'til she grabbed up her coat,

G D G CaddG

And she goes. She's been here too few years, to take it all in stride.

G D CaddG

Yeah, but still it's much too long, to let hurt go (you let her go).

Am G Am CaddG G Am CaddG

And we always say, it would be good to go away, someday,

Em D

Yeah but if there's nothin' there to make things change,

CaddG D

if it's the same for you I'll just hang, same to you I'll always hang.

G Am CaddG G Am CaddG

Well I always say, it would be good to go away,

Em D

But if things don't work out like we think and

Em D

There's nothing there to ease this achin', but if

Em D

There's nothing there to make things change,

CaddG CaddG

If it's the same for you I'll just hang.
