From: "Jonathan Vidal" <jvidal17@hotmail.com> Subject: s/smith_elliott/say_yes.tab Date: Fri, 08 May 1998 14:09:08 PDT This is "Say Yes" by Elliott Smith off of the "Good Will Hunting" soundtrack. Check out the chords to "Miss Misery" also if you haven't already. I was planning to tab all of the songs on this album from Elliott Smith. "Angeles" is going to be pretty tough, so be patient. If you listen to the CD you can get the strumming pattern. It's pretty easy. I'll put the basis of it here. Title: Say Yes Artist: Elliott Smith Transcribed and submitted: Jonathan Vidal Tune down one full step Verse: -----3-----2-|----0------2-|-----0------0-|------5---| -----3-----3-|----0------3-|-----1------0-|------5---| -----4-----2-|----0------2-|-----0------0-|------6---| -----5-----4-|----2--0-0---|-----2------0-|------5---| -----5-----5-|----2--X-----|-3-3----2-2---|------7---| -3-3---2-2---|0-0----X-----|-X------X-----|-5-5------| Again. listen to the song to get the timing right Lyrics Verse 1 I'm in love with the world Through the eyes of a girl Who's still around the morning after Verse 2 We broke up a month ago But I grew up, I didn't know You'd be around the morning after SOLO Verse 3 It's always been wait and see A happy day and then you pay You feel like shit the morning after Verse 4 But now I feel changed around And instead of falling down I'm standing up the morning after Bridge (strummed)

Stay posted for "Between The Bars", "No Name #3", and hopefully "Angeles".
