Weezer

aldog@concentric.net claims that his version of "Tired of Sex" is 
correct, but I have to disagree. He's posted the verse, but there's a lot 
more to the song than that.

		         "Tired of Sex" by Weezer
			from the album "Pinkerton."
			     Tuning: Tune to Eb
			      (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb)

Here are the three main parts of the song:
     Gb ----------------------------------|
     Db ----------------------------------|  verse
     Ab --------5---5-7-5-----------------|     
     Eb --3--3------------8-7-------------|

     Gb ----------------------------------|
     Db ----------------------------------|  chorus A
     Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|
     Eb --3-3-3-3-------------------------|

     Gb ----------------------------------|
     Db --5-5-5-5-------------------------|  chorus B
     Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-|
     Eb ----------------------------------|

Bass intro: 
     Eb ---/10--- 
(slide up to the 10th fret on the E string, 
then slide down and start the first verse.)

Play verse 10x

Chorus:
A A B

I guess you could call this a "post-chorus"
(played right after the first chorus):

       ("Why can't I be making love come true?")
     Gb ----------------------------------------|
     Db ----------------------------------------|
     Ab -----------3--2-------------------------|
     Eb --1-1-1-1--------5----------------------|

Play verse 10x

Chorus:
A B A

Post-chorus:
       ("Why can't I...")         Very fast after you hit the high E.
     Gb --------------------------------------------------------------|
     Db --------------------------------------------------------------|
     Ab ------------3333-2222-----------------------------------------|
     Eb --11111111------------55555555/12 12 12 12/19 19 19 19--------|

Solo:
Play verse 4x

Chorus:
A B A

The B chorus is different here. From what I can tell, Matt slides
between the 5 and 7 on the A string, like this:

     Gb ----------------------------------|
     Db --5-5-5-5-------------------------|
     Ab ----------3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5-/75/7--|
     Eb ----------------------------------|

Followed by the final post-chorus:

            Ritard (slow down...)
     Gb ----------------------------------|
     Db ----------------------------------|
     Ab -----------3--2-------------------|
     Eb --1-1-1-1--------5--0--7----------|

Outro:

     Eb --3/10-3/10---

Then the verse 4x and end on the G.

So, the basic layout of the song would be:

     Intro
     Verse
     Chorus
     Verse
     Chorus
     Solo
     Chorus
     Verse (Outro)

That, my friends, is the bass tab to "Tired of Sex." At least,  I think 
so. But, if you don't agree, or you just want to praise me for my 
wonderful piece of work, send any comments/questions/corrections to:
