Bad Day
tabbed by moonsoon3@aol.com
as far as I know, nobody has tabbed the solo. also, nobody
adds the Bm chord that's at the end of the D-E-F#m-E section.
so here's the complete, absolutely correct tab for the song.
i saw these guys live @ rutgers university and it was awesome. they closed
with a Stairway to Heaven intro to Bittersweet, Bad Day, then Hemmorage. my only
beef was that the genius in their records is the harsh contrast between
hard and soft....live, they just turned the volume to the max on everything.
Intro: Asus2->A Asus2 (it's just the first 2 measures of the verse. then go
into the full verse).
VERSE, CHORUS:
Asus2 A Asus2 A F#m7 Asus2 D Dm A Asus2

I had a bad day, yeah.
She said you would not understand.
She left a note that said I'm
Sorry, I, I had a bad day yeah.
She spilled her coffee broke a shoelace.
and smeared the lipstick on her face.
Slammed the door and said I'm
Sorry, I, I had a bad day again.

she left a note that said I'm sorry, I, I had a bad day~~~ (drum fill)-->outro/verse.
outro is verse/chorus chords with "ah ah ah ah" being sung.
peace, love, rock and roll,
