THIS HEAD I HOLD - Electric Guest Tabbed by:ndermawan + help of youtube vids! E-mail:ndermawan@yahoo.com Reference video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0b8fpMzBig0 - Helps with general chord shapes Tuning: Standard I know there are already a few tabs of this song up, but imho they aren't close to 100% correct, so I've decided to share my interpretation of it. Still find it weird that the lead singer is Lonely Island's Jorma Taccone's brother O_o You can be liberal with trying out different chord shapes, Dm7 for example also works As the song is played on piano and I can't get all the exact notes they play. Kinda makes the chord sound a little quirky and jarring, but still works. Its up to you to pick DGB or the 3 highest strings, OR use your pinky and pick all 4! Intro ----- Dm Em F Em e|----(5)(5)-----(7)(7)-----(8)-(8)------(7)(7)-----| B|-----6--6-------8--8-------10--10-------8--8------| G|-----7--7-------9--9-------10--10-------9--9------| D|-----7--7-------9--9-------10--10-------9--9------| A|--5---5--5---7---7--7---8----8---8---7---7--7-----| E|--------------------------------------------------| Verse 1: --------
They call Dmme a little grown Emup See, I'm upsFet because I've always been Emstuck But I don't Dmknow what it is I'm withEmout Guess I'm in lFove with always feeling dEmown
(See the problem was I)
DmI was fully consumEmed By all of the pFetty things that I couldn't Emdo All of the Dmplastic, products, shows, and woEmes But I didn't evFer show, I let it Emgo So I listen while I'm Dmtold
Sit bEmack, don't thiFnk Get hEmigh, take driDmnk Sit bEmack, don't thiFnk The more I listen, Emthe deeper I sink and
Chorus: -------
DmOoh, I go hEmigher And I say, Fooh, a-ooh, I go Emhigher This head that I Dmhold, oh, it's so Emtired And I say, Foh, no, I go Emhigher \Dm And I say, ooh, x x x What's it gon', what's it gonna be? \Dm Make me say, ooh, x x x What's it gon', what's it gonna be? \Dm I'm feelin' so cold, x x x What they want, what they want from me x /Dm x ~Lick Make me say ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (they want, they gonna be)

So find Dmme stuck in some Emscene I wanna get Fout but there's no in-Embetween So I sit Dmback as I watch the crowd Emgo Never asFsuming that I've sunken so Emlow See the answer is Dmthis If I wanna be Emfree I gotta stop Fplayin' round and runnin' from Emme 'Cause all of the Dmplastic, products, shows, and Emwoes They got my head Ffeelin' low, no room to Emgrow So I listen while I'm Dmtold
Sit bEmack, don't thiFnk Get hEmigh, take driDmnk Don'tEm feel, Just goF If you listen Emcarefully, then you won't feel so Dmlow Sit bEmack, don't thiFnk The more I listen, Emthe deeper I sink and
Chorus: -------
DmOoh, I go hEmigher And I say, Fooh, a-ooh, I go Emhigher This head that I Dmhold, oh, it's so Emtired And I say, Foh, no, I go Emhigher \Dm And I say, ooh, x x x What's it gon', what's it gonna be? \Dm Make me say, ooh, x x x What's it gon', what's it gonna be? \Dm I'm feelin' so cold, x x x What they want, what they want from me x /Dm x ~Lick Make me say ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (they want, they gonna be)
Outro: ------------
I'm sinking, Dmooh, I go Chigher And I say, ooDmh, a-ooh, I go Chigher Get no Dmsleep, meet the vamCpire And I say, Dmooh, no, I go Chigher <- Technically only the synth plays during this part
And I say, Dmooh, I go hEmigher And I say, Fooh, a-ooh, I go Emhigher This head that I Dmhold, no, it's so Emtired And I say, Fooh, no, I go Emhigher Dm
