-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Kaptin Ukraine
Email: pcvallin@mtu.edu
 
Tuning: Standard
 
Note:  This ain't perfect, I can tell there is more dissonance going on, but I play it
this way on my acoustic and it sounds pretty decent.  It's pretty much based around 16th
notes, that is to say, I am not gonna type out the rhythm, you may have to hit a chord or
note more times than written!
 
 
Intro:
 
Here's the scale run they do, on th' ivories or somethin'
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-14--13--11--9-------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------11--10--8--6-----------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 
Here's a way to incorporate that scale run into the rhythm chords (if yer playing it alone!)
 
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-6--5----------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|-6--6--8--6--4--3----------------------------------------------------------|
A|-4--4--4--4--4--4--6--4----------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------2--2--2--2----------------------------------------------------|
 
Verse:
C#5                    B5
After she lets you glide around
A5
Finally hit the ground
B5
Like a paper plane
C#5                  B5
Take a trip, join me in the sun
A5
But not really though
B
Cause I ain't having fun
 
Chorus:
        E5
Cause summer here kids
            B5
Summer here totally lies
               F#5                   A5       B5
Tourist people said I'd have a good time
            E5
Summer here kids
        B5
All of them awful lies
         F#5             C#m  G#  A
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
 
*repeat intro chords
 
Do as I didn't do because
I'm a picture of indumbivivity
Stay alone put a record on
Listen to the songs
Keep youself at home
 
Cause summer here kids
Summer here totally lies
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
Summer here kids
All of them awful lies
Tourist info said I'd have a good time
         C#m  G#  A  (repeat)
I'm not having a good time
 
*End on E

Little mistake, but great job! A# : 466544 That's actually a G#, an A# chord is 688766
