Intro: G Em C D 2x
Verse 1
G Em C D
The sidewalk is rushing at my head again
G Em C D
I'm lying on the street in the rain and wind
G Em C D
From doing forward rolls down Avenue A
G Em C D
With my guitar on my back don't let it end this way
G Em C D 2x
G Em C D
Somehow I dialed my cell
G Em C D
I didn't know I could get service in hell
G Em C D
How quickly can you get here, don't know where I am dear
G Em C D
Em C D
Finally the world actually seems to be revolving around me
G Em C D
Chorus
G Em C D
Shoobie doobie doo-wap
G Em C D
I overdid it at the soda shop
G Em C D
Thanks for being my girl at the
G Em C D
"I don't know when to stop sock hop"
G Em C D 2x
G Em C D
You held my head over the edge of the bed
G Em C D
I remember it now but at the time I thought I was dead
G Em C D
You put a pan there and held back my hair
G Em C D
Em C D
How can I repay you for saving me and my hardwood floor

G Em C D
And when the world stops spinning round
G Em C D
I picked the pan up off the ground
G Em C D
I read my up heaves much like tea leaves
G Em C D
They said it's over so get sober or you'll die
G Em C D

Chorus
G Em C D
Shoobie doobie doo-wap
G Em C D

end on G6

The picking he does is like this...
during the verse+bridge he simply doubles the basses and plays the notes of the middle
index finger
So a G would be:
e|------|
B|----3-|
G|----0-|
D|------|
A|------|
E|--3-3-|
At the end of each line he plays a D and what you hear is
e|-------|
B|----3--|
G|-----2-|
D|-0-0---|
A|-------|
E|-------|
...during the chorus the picking is like this -- i guess
e|-----3-----0---0-----|
B|----0-----0---1------|
G|---0-----0---0-------|
D|-------------------0-|
A|-------------3-------|
E|--3-----0------------|
And finally the G6 at the end is played like that:
e|--0--
B|--0--
G|-----
D|-----
A|-----
E|--3--
But this is just to give you an idea. You might listen to the song for improving these ; )
Anyway.. Have fun!
And thanks for using my tab.
