Note: this tab is for chords only. Owing to the fact that this album is 
built from samples, the chord progressions are highly repetitive
and often stay on one chord for lengthy periods of time. All lyrics are from

1. Comfy in Nautica


Bb (entire song)


(Try)

Try to tell me how to do it
Only because I'm new to it
Coolness is having courage
Courage to do what is right
I'll try to remember always just to have a good time

Ty to show me that you know me
Do you know what coolness really is?
Winning is what you want to
Winning what you're scared to go for
You try to remember always to have a good time

Try and have a softer inside
Shut up, boy, and be a soldier
Coolness is having courage
Courage to do what's right
And try to remember always just to have a good time

Winning is what you want to
Winning what you're scared to go for
And try to remember always to have a good time

Surely there's no substitute for company
My mom's ripping off her hands one flake at a time
All her children left the house and left her all alone
But just like she'd tell me
Things get better
Just wait and you'll see

Take one day at a time
Anything else you can leave behind
Only one thing at a time
Anything more really hurts your mind
I don't want for us to take pills anymore
Not that it's bad
I don't want for us to take pills because we're stronger and we don't need them 


Take one day at a time
Anything else you can leave behind
Only one thing at a time
Anything more really hurts your mind
I don't want for us to take pills anymore
Not that it's bad
I don't want for us to take pills because we're stronger and we don't need them 

Take one day at a time
Anything else you can leave behind
Only one thing at a time
Anything more really hurts your mind
I don't want for us to take pills anymore
Not that it's bad
I don't want for us to take pills because we're stronger and we don't need them

3. Bros


In the first section of this song, the sample just plays

D   D/A

But often the vocals and the guitar he adds imply other chords. So the 
chords I've written are these implied chords. But remember the sample
is exactly the same




Hey, man, what's your problem?

Don't you know that I don't belong to you?
It's hard and hard enough to keep it up when everything is so new

I'm not trying to forget you
I just like to be alone
Come and give me the space I need
And may you may find that we're all right

I'm not trying to forget you
I just like to be alone
Come and give me the space I need

I know myself
And I know what I want to do
I'm doing my best
And I want to know
Is it good for you?
You give me trouble
You give me everything that you've got
I'll show you that what's right for me ain't for you

D  A           g  A    
    Don't look out  for 
D  A           g  A

D
me

The same chord progression repeats over the following lines which are hard
 to distinguish

Who are you to tell me how when you've problems of your own?
I do love you and I want to hold on to you for always

4. I'm Not

Seeing as the chords are created by the vocals, the voicing of the chords
 is difficult to determine. I think
the following way sounds closest to the original.


Eb    Gm/Bb


Eb  Gm/Bb Eb Gm/Bb Eb  Gm/Bb
I'm not   ready    for it
Eb            Gm/Bb
But then ever I could be?

N.C.Gm/Bb Eb Gm/Bb Eb  Gm/Bb
I'm not   ready    for it
Eb            Gm/Bb
But then ever I could be?

5. Good Girl/Carrots

As with the other songs, the sample stays on one chord but others are
 implied by the vocals or other instruments.


Bb6/F     Cm6

e|(3)|   |---|
b|-3-|   |-4-|
g|-3-|   |-2-|
d|-3-|   |-5-|
a|---|   |-3-|
e|-1-|   |---|



Bb6F

Isn't there anyone else in this place who can tell me right now
Don't be afraid
Isn't there anyone else in this place who can tell me right now
Don't be afraid
Bb                  F            F7            Bb     
There's no one else here who can hang out like I do

Bb6/F

Cm6            Gm
Just this good girl

As I feel the tour drop out
I can feel the creeps creep in
I've got a big baby that makes my sides burst
And tempura makes it bleed
Bb              F
No question I'm stressed
     F7                        Bb
With only this good girl doing her best 

Bb6/F



Cm6            Gm
Just this good girl

Bb6/F




D

That old good boy Mitch just wanted to tell some jokes
Well, now I'm just trying to play some notes
Do you know what I say?
Do you know what I mean?
Have you heard through these words just how I'm seen?
There's a reason that I work so hard at this stuff
When all I want to do is take it easy

     N.C      D        N.C.       D
It's not a tic ket for you to pick at other people
Who don't know what's up like you're so sure you do

N.C.

D

You kind of make me want to shut your mouth
Just to keep out all of those unfriendly feelings
Just because you've got a lot of wax and all those first editions
I want you to know sticks and stones may break my bones
But words will never hurt me
All I need to know I knew so early

N.C.        D               N.C.        D
It's so lame that you could take my feel ings
And make yourself feel like you're better than anyone else who hasn't heard

     N.C      D        N.C.       D
It's not a tic ket for you to pick at other people
Who don't know what's up like you're so sure you do

N.C.

D --> Eb  which is achieved by overlapping samples. Also the Eb is a little sharp.

Eb   Eb/Bb

Listen in between your notes
There's something been going on while you were busy taking notes
And look in between your moments
There's something good happening
It's good to sometimes slow it down

Listen in between your notes
There's something been going on while you were busy taking notes
And look in between your moments
There's something good happening
It's good to sometimes slow it down

What's the point in pouring it all out when you guys just wear it on your coat?
I believe that for this piece of time we can really crank us up a lot
Get your head out from those mags and websites who try to shape your style
Take a risk just for yourself and wade into the deep end of the

6. Search for Delicious

Difficult to play guitar to but about the best you can do is:

C g    F  Dm g
C g    F  Dm g
C g    F  Dm g
C g    F  Dm g




These lyrics are scattered throughout the song:


I think it's good to be a little
It must be good to be a little scared
I wonder what it must be like to be on fire and so hot
On fire
