Ache - music and words by Jawbreaker. KEY: / - slide h - hammer p - pull (not used in this tab) *NOTE* The intro is played on the guitar alone. The root notes are G-A-B-C. These are the same for the intro and verse. VERSE: G2-A2-B2-C2 G----------------------------------------------- D----------------------------------------------- A-10-10-7-10-12-12-10-12-14-14-12-12-14-14-14-15 E----------------------------------------------- *NOTE* From here on out, the basic verse pattern shall only be shown as the root notes (G2-A2-B2-C2) on the tab for the verses - HOWEVER, make sure you incorporate the pattern shown above, otherwise it won't sound correct. *NOTE* There are fills after C2 on each repetition, what you see above is the basic pattern that stays the same throughout the entire song for the verse. I'll do the best I can to label and describe each fill as the the tab progresses (like all my tabs, it will be chronological.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 I believe in desperate acts. The kind that make me look stupid. (Look like a fool.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 Just keep reinventing myself. It's move or die. (I change my form.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 These days the people I love are spread so far apart. (All out of reach.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #2 It's a thin sheet across the face. (Cover me now.) ----- PRECHORUS: E2-B2-D2-G2-A2 G------------------------------------------- D------------------------------------------- A-7-7-77/141414-17-17/10-10-1010-1212-121212 E------------------------------------------- E2 B2 D2 G2 A2 That's pretty old. E2 B2 D2 G2 A2 That's pretty old. E2 B2 D2 G2 A2 I never felt like this before. I say that every hour. E2 B2 D2 G2 A2 I never felt like this before. I say that every hour. ---- SECOND VERSE: G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 It's never going to be like it could have been. Now it's just this room. (Window looks back.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 You're a big part of it. But I don't care. (You take the lead.) G2 A2 B2 C Fill #3 And can you really see me now like I made me? (Made me anew.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #2 Just like anyone else. (Safer alone.) ----- PRECHORUS ----- CHORUS: G2-F#2-E2-D-C G2 F#2 E2 D C So right, so wrong. Another winter's coming on. G2 F#2 E2 D C You win, you lose. It's the same old news. These things go wrong so often. G2 F#2 E2 D C Pick up the phone and punch your home code. G2 F#2 E2 D C Somewhere, sometime let me make you mine. ----- THIRD VERSE: G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 Lean your head on mine like you used to. (Used to your lean.) G2A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 I don't mind if you're faking it. (Make it seem real.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #1 I'm not asking the questions. I'm not demanding the answers now. (Take what you give.) G2 A2 B2 C2 Fill #4 Right or wrong, just take me, lead me on. I'm going. I'm going. ----- SECOND CHORUS ----- The fills (listen as Fill #1, #2, #3, and #4) are as follows.... FILL #1 G--------------- D--------------- A-15-14-15-14-12 E--------------- *NOTE* This fill will change slightly with each repetition (a note may be left out, an extra one added or played faster or slower, etc.,) but these ARE ALWAYS the notes. ----- FILL #2 G--------------------------------- D--------------------------------- A-15/17-17-17-17-15-15-15-15-17-15 E--------------------------------- *NOTE* This fill will change slightly with each repetition (a note may be left out, an extra one added or played faster or slower, etc.,) but these ARE ALWAYS the notes. Also, play the notes faster than shown (they are just spaced that way for clarity.) ----- FILL #3 G----------16--- D-14/17-19----17 A--------------- E--------------- ----- FILL #4 G----------- D----------- A-15-14-15-14h15/17-15-14-15 E----------- ----- *NOTE* That should be about it.
