ok, i know iz a pretty easy sounding song, but I really suck at picking up chords by listening to the song....can anybody help me with the tab for "hopefully"?

Thank you mmj, iz beauuuuteeeful!

Can anybody help with "strangulation" ?? Sounds like it starts on a G# and works up to maybe a C# but I know thats just not quite right...are they tuned weirdly? or playing high on the neck or something?

Put your capo on the first fret for strangulation...

   G
strangulation

   C G
I don't wanna feel a thing

   C Em
When your hands close tight around my neck

   D
force the air that I breathe...

   C
I don't want to feel a thing

   G
I don't want to feel a thing.

Then G C Am through the next part...

It repeats pretty closely for the next verse... And the intro and outro obviously works poorly on a single acoustic guitar, but you can just bang on Em if you want to.

I know it's nowhere near the studio cut, but it is a similar facsimile thereof.

Yo, yo, yo

For the moment I'm working on a tabbed-out version of Strangulation and I have to admit, it sounds great, but I think it will take a while to finish it because exams are coming my way :-X . I'm also tabbing "I will be there when I die" for the fans amongst us. The release date of this songs is been expected within a few months. All will be posted on powertabs.net, so check it out.

I often visit this topic and see all those tabs and I really want to play them and I wanna tab out things myself, but when I play guitar, I always play my own songs for hours, and I just never get to MMJ-songs. But still, y´all keep up the good work, and maybe I´ll get to it someday.

Quoteok Here are the chords for the way that he sings, just to help you out, so no solo's are included.

Intro: Bb/E: x1333x
Fadd11/E:x1321x
verse: Eb/E: x6888x (play four measures)
Bb: 688766 (play four measures)
Chorus: Dmadd9/E; x5776x (play two measures)
Cm/G:x35543 (play six measures)
F : 133211 (play four measures)
Cm/G:x35543 (play two measures)
F : 133211 (play two measures)

Go back to intro.
Play verse again
chorus
verse
outro: You play the chords of the intro and the second guitar just repeats this lick all the time:
--6-6-6-4-4-3-3-3
--7-7-7-3-3-3-3-3

Enjoy your show!

PS Possible solution: Did you download the software(the powertabeditor) to read the files?

TRY PLAYING THIS SAME SONG WITH A CAPO ON THE FIRST FRET, and TRANSCRIBE YOURSELF OUT OF ALL THOSE HARD ASS FINGERINGS...

THERE"S A REASON GOD MADE THE CAPO...

GOOD WORK STILL...

THANK YOU...

AND THANK YOU FOR INTRODUCING ME TO POWERTAB..

I LOOK FORWARD TO HOOKING EVERYBODY UP WITH MY OWN TRANSCRIPTIONS

Thx for the tip man, but I don't have a capo, so I all have to tab it without it. And yes I know the fingersetting isn't that easy, but it's good for the fingers. They become more flexible and it allows you to take more difficult fingersettings in the future. But considering the advantages of a capo, I think I'll buy one in the future.

BeatTheDiese · Sep 02, 2003, 09:59 AM

here is hopefully

intro:
e:----9---3~--
B:---7-7--3~--
G:--7---7-0~--
D:-0----------

verse:
G D, G D, G D, A D,

chorus:
G, F#m, G, A, D

listen for the rythym. it's not too complicated.

Hi guys, I pretty much know all MMJ songs on guitar if you have a particular song you wanna know just email me (mike_nix@beer.com). -Mike (www.mp3.com/the_axis_band.com)

Hipster_Doofus · Sep 12, 2003, 10:33 AM

I figured out mahgetta a while ago, just the solo so far but i can put the rest up in a few days..

marktwain · Sep 15, 2003, 05:29 PM

I've been doing a whole lot of sitting around and playing along with the new album, and I'll post what I've figured out when I have time. Let me know if you've got requests. :)

lfish · Sep 16, 2003, 12:22 PM

Gee,
thx guys for keeping up the good work. Long time since I visited this thread. It makes me reach for the guitar again.

lfish · Sep 19, 2003, 02:13 AM

Hey, I was wondering, as you guys have so many tabs worked out, isn't it possible to put them into powertabfiles. It's much better then just the chords. I've put already some tabs on powertabs.net but for the moment, I don't have much time myself to work it all out. But I will be glad to help working it out if help is needed.

That other guy had the verse and chorus chords correct for "One Big Holiday", the song they played on Conan. Heres some intro stuff I figured out.
