Sugartune Lyrics

SLOAN - Sugartune
From: Smeared
This song has already been posted by someone else but it's
totally wrong, so I thought I'd put my own version on. I'm
glad to see that there are some other Sloan fans out there
in cyberspace. They were a great band while they lasted. Tell
me if you have any comments, corrections, or suggestions. Thanks.
Tuned down about a half step Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb (It doesn't
seem like it's quite on the exact pitch, so you might have
to fool around with you're tuning pegs a bit to match it.)
During A, B, C# part of Fig.1 part the second guitar sometimes
picks the notes of the chords rather than strumming them.

Verse (Fig.1)
I wrote for you a sugar tune
To help you through what you gotta do
When you're on the ground and keep fallin' down
Remember how I made this sound

Bridge (Fig.2)
Sound sou - nd

Verse (Fig.1)
When you're on your own feeling all alone
Remember that you've always got a home
I'm outside tryin' hard to hide
The fact I'm scared to be by your side
Fig.3
Chorus (Fig.3)
I know when everybody's got one
You want one, too
I know when everybody's got one
You want one, too
Fig.5 (interlude)
Guitar 1 plays something along these lines...
oooohhhhhh ooooohhhhh ooooohhhh ooooohhhhhh
while guitar two plays the rythym part.
Chorus (Fig.3)
I know when everybody's got one
You want one, too
I know when everybody's got one
You want one, too
Fig.4 (palm mute throughout)
Verse (Fig.4)
I wrote for you a sugar tune
To help you through what you gotta do
When you're one the ground and keep falling down

Keep playing Fig.2 until the end if the song.
.....sugartune....by sloan
if you don't know sloan, they are (were) a cool Canadian band
that just recently broke up. ):
here's the song sugartune from their first album "smeared" (go buy
it) It's pretty easy, mostly power chords, I don't have some
parts, so if you like sloan help me out.
For people who have never heard this song before I put in the beat
values, for the intro atleast.
Play with distortion, I think there's another guitar playing some-
thing but I have no idea what.
(chords used)
(Intro)
4 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &
or something along those lines....
(Verses)
I wrote for you,
A sugar tune,
Help you through what you gotta do.
the same chord progression is played for these lyrics...
When you're one the ground,
And keep falling down,
remember how I made this sound.
(Chorus)
I know when
everybody's got one,
You want one too.
...that's all I have so far, it's the basic song. There's a couple
fills missing, but there not that hard to figure out...
my first tab, hope you enjoy it.....
