"You To Thank" Ben Folds http://www.benfolds.com Songs For Silverman Tabbed by Mark Spurlock This song, naturally, is for piano. I've tabbed it out for guitar with the aim of making it sound as correct as possible while still being technically feasible for a solo player Intro: These are just arpeggiated chords way up the fretboard. Bb C F e|-----------------------------------------------------------13-| B|--------------------------------------------------------13----| G|-----------------------------------------------------14-------| D|12-------12----------14-------14---------15-------15----------| A|------13----13-------------15----15------------13-------------| E|---13----------13-------15----------15------13----------------| Bb C F e|-------------------------------------------13-| B|-11-------11--------13-------13-----------13--| G|-------10----10-----------12----12-------14---| D|----12----------12-----14----------14---15----| A|----------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------| Verse:

^BbBy ^Cthe ^Ftime the ^Bbbuzz was wearing ^Coff We were ^C7standing out on the ^Fsidewalk

With our ^Bbtattoos that looked like ^Crings

In the ^Bbhot Nev^Cada ^Bbsun

Verse 2 Gifts piled high and our moms and dads shook hands And our party of polaroid friends Rented a pool and hired a band Bridge

^BbMaybe they knew more than ^Fwe knew Cause they d^Aanced and drank while ^Dmwe jumped off the ^Bbdeep end ^Bbm

Chorus: In order to have the root notes make any melodic sense, play at least the first two chords from each line only on the high 4 strings (D G B e). If this part is too complex, you can simplify it by ignoring the altered root notes and just playing standard chords

Oh I've got y^Fou ^F/A ^Bb ^F To t^C/Ehank ^C/Bb ^A ^A

For t^Fhis ^F/A ^Bb ^F C/E C/D A A

Christmas came around Yeah and everything was going to crap For moms and dads, not a clue to be had Yeah we put on a pretty good act And they seemed to all need to believe it So we danced and drank and paddled hard Beneath it Oh I've got you To thank For this

^BbYou c^Can't^Bb say ^Cyou've ^Bbne-^Cver ^Ahad a d^Bboubt and s^Cmoked^Bb it down b^Cut ^Bbreal^Cly ^Awanted ^Fout

Play chorus sans lyrics. Then there's a solo. I found one transcription that claims its F Bb C A played 4 times. This sounds wrong to me, but whatever. If anyone feels inspired to figure out something here, more power to you. I'm moving on. By the time the buzz was wearing off We were standing out on the sidewalk With our tattoos that looked like rings In the hot Nevada sun

And ^Bbthey ^Cwon't ^Ffade Chorus
