This is a compilation of songs published by various different users to create the album "Five Songs." Enjoy! :) I have set each song up with a roman numeral, so to find the song that you would like, hit "control f", or if you have a mac, "command f". Then you type in the numeral of your song. REMEMBER TO TYPE "." AFTER THE NUMERAL! I. Oceanside II. Shiny III. My Mother Was a Chinese Trapeze Artist IV. Angel, Won't You Call Me? V. I Don't Mind VI. Apology Song I. Oceanside Tabbed By: Unregistered

Sweet Annab^Eelle as seen reclining on an o^C#mcean swell as the waves do l^F#mather up to lay her down 'til she's f^Aast and sleeping oh w^Eell I guess I'm something of a n^C#me'er-do-well who fell asleep at the p^F#mealing of the steeple bell I'm on tr^Aack and keeping but ^Eoh if I could only get you o^F#mcean side To lay your mu^Ascles wide it’d be heav^Eenly oh if I could only coax you o^F#mverboard to leave these lo^Alling shores to get you o^Ecean side ^B7 F#m A---Am Ocean side ocean side oh

SOLO: E-C#m-F#m-A-Am

At rising t^Eide you're looking fresher than a J^C#muly bride We're picking up what our m^F#mothers always stigmatized. The field is r^Aight for reaping oh w^Eell I guess I'm something of a ne^C#mer-do-well Even though that's so^F#mmething I could never do well I'm on tr^Aack and keeping but ^Eoh if I could only get you o^F#mcean side to lay your mu^Ascles wide it'd be heaven^Ely oh if I could only coax you o^F#mverboard To leave these lo^Alling shores to get you o^Ecean side ^B7 F#m A--Am--E Ocean side ocean side

II. Shiny Tabbed By: TimMobbs Tuning: Standard EADGBe Notes: Capo on 2nd Fret This is a fairly easy song to play, but uses some rather uncommon chords, complete with long and weird names. My advise would be to not be thrown by the odd chords, but just to learn the shapes of them, where they fit into the song and keep at it :) Here are all the chords used in the song:

Em9/D all shiny, all shiny The rest of the song is the norman verse chord sequence "Cadd9 Cmaj7 Cadd9 Cmaj7 B5 Em B5 Em" Over Colin singing "All shiny" repeatedly. The song then finishes with: Em D/F G Am B7 III. My Mother Was a Chinese Trapeze Artist Tabbed By: mobaxwob Intro: Am Am/E Am Am/E (x4)

Apology Song Tabbed By: Unregistered Verse 1: E A B E I'm really sorry Steven Ab C# A But your bicycle's been stolen E I was watchin it for you F# A 'Til you came back in the fall F# A Guess I didn't do such a good job after all Verse 2: E A B E I was feeling really sorry Steven Ab C# A And I spent all morning grieving E And everybody's saying F# A That you'll take the news gracefully F# A Somehow I don't think I'll be getting off that easily Chorus 1: C# A I meant her no harm E Ab When I left her unlocked Outside the Orange Street Food Farm C# A I was just running in E Eb Didn't think I'd be that long

^C#I came out, she was g^Aone ^EAnd all that was there was som^Abe bored old dog

C# A E Leashed up to the place where your bicycle had been F# B Guess we'll never see poor Madeleine again Verse 3 (match verse 1 for chords): Let this be consolation, Steven That all the while you were in England I treated her with care and respect And have her lots of love And I was usually pretty good 'bout locking her up Chorus 2 (match chorus 2 for chords): Where has she gone? Well, I bet she's on the bottom of a Frenchtown pond Rudely abused on some hescher's joyride So I wrote you this song In the hopes that you'd forgive me Even though it was wrong Being so careless with a thing so great And taking your poor Madeleine away, away ================= END OF FIVE SONGS ================= Please leave me comments and ratings to make this tab better.
