Song: Why Do All Girls Think They're Fat?
Band: Reel Big Fish
Album: Keep Your Reciept (1996)
Written by my hero, Aaron Barrett
Transcribed by Luke Knox (lukeknox@iname.com)
This is an awesome song by my favorite band, Reel Big Fish. If you're
confused and bewildered by the song title, that's probably because you
don't have Keep Your Reciept, a 5-song album released before Turn the Radio
Off. I suggest you buy KYR, it has a great version of Unity (by OpIvy!) on it.
Anyway, here it is:
Intro: (quiet)
E--2-2------0---2---3--3--------------
B--3---3----2---3---3----3------------
G--2-----2--2---4---4------4----------
D--0--------2---4---5--------4-4-2---- (Played 3x)
A----------------------------------4--
E-------------------------------------
D A Bm G
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 Go!
E-----------------------------
B-----------------------------
G--7--------------------------
D--7----7----9----5--4-4-2-0--
A--5----7----9----5-----------
E-------5----7----3-----------
D A B G
This is played 4x. The 4th time, play this riff instead of the one above:
E--3-2---3-2-------
B------3-----3-3r--
G------------------
D------------------
(Note: This riff: D--4-4-2-0- is played many times during the song, and
is called simply "riff" in my transcription.)
Verse:(all barre chords, and played fast. Listen to CD for rythym.)
D A F# G
There's a (little girl) on my mind.
(Little girl) all the time.
(Little girl) there's always one.
(Little girl) look what she's done.

G C B (Heavy Palm mute)
She drags a tear from my eye.
G C B (Palm mute)
You know I sure hate to lie.
G A D A
Why can't you stay here, you know it's so beautiful,
G A D D D (riff)
and how come all girls think they're fat?
Chorus:
D D A B G (riff)
Hey Hey Hey She's so pretty.
D D A B G (riff)
Hey Hey Hey My friend.
D D A B G (riff) D D B A G
Hey Hey Hey I feel stupid. Again.
(Back to: D A F# G)
(She said) it's all right.
(She said) come over tonight.
(She said) my mom's not home.
(She said) I'm all alone.
G C B (palm mute)
She took me back to her house.
G C B (pm)
She pushed me down on the couch.
G A D A
She said it's all right, we're gonna be good friends,
G A D D D (riff)
cause the kissing only leads to the end.
(Repeat chorus)
Over bass solo:
D A F# G
Guitar Solo: (*the low part is played on a second guitar)
E---------7s5----10-12-10--14-15-14--19-17--
B-8-7---------10----------------------------
G-----9-7-----------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------3-2-0---
B---------------8-7-----------------------------3-
G-------------------9-7r----------0---0-2---------
D---------------------------4-2-4---4-------------
A-*5----------5----------------------------------
E----5-2-2-3b---5-2-2-3b-------------------------
Then play chorus 2x, and that's it!
I hope this sounds good to you. Let me know of any other ways of playing
this song, especially the solo.
