What I Am - Edie Brickell
------------------------------
Tabbed by Howard Wright
H.Wright@astro.cf.ac.uk
Can't remember the name of the album
it's from, but it's the one with the
child-like colourful drawings of the
band on the front.
Intro/Main Riff :
------------------
This is all based on the sus2 shape :
EADGBE
x24422
Bsus2
Just move it up two D, then down to A, then back to B.

Verse :
--------
Keep repeating the main riff over these words :
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean
(Repeat once)
Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean
De-doo yeah
Chorus:
--------
Em D
Chuck me in the shallow water
Em D
Before I get too deep
(Repeat once - I think ..)
Then back to the main riff.
The whole song is just these two parts - the sus2 riff
alternating with Em and D for the chorus.
There's a little lead line on guitar over the chorus :
Em D
E---12---15---12-----12---------14---12------
B----------------15------15--15----------15--
G--------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------
Chuck me in the shallow water
That's about it !
