Title: Dog Problems Artist: The Format Album: Dog Problems Transcribed by: Sebastian Insua (IM.Hanz_NOSPAM_@gmail.com) It was incredibely tedious to write this up, as in some parts of the songs there was going on, and it was only the second tab I had written, so I hope it doesn't suck too ;) I made the tab with help from the software "Transcribe!" by Seventh String. The bass is pretty inaccurate, as I don't have a bass guitar to try it out on. And I done all of the bass guitar, as I realised later on that the bass is generally just the note of of the chord with a really really simple beat, and I had wasted too much time I got too lazy to write the piano out at some point as well, but the rhythm should be obvious by that point. :P I have synchronised the chords and notes with the words, to make it easier to get the right, but you will have to listen to the song for the rhythm for some parts of the horn/strings. In the bridge, I did not bother writing the plucking/strumming pattern, just play what think sounds best. As well as all of the seperate parts, I also tried writing a solo guitar copy of the on the bottom, I sort of tried to combine all of the parts which does make it pretty hard places (it's not completely impossible I think), and it won't sound exactly right. You can really simplify it by just playing the chord names above the lyrics. :) Note: I hope you can fingerpick well. So I don't mind if somebody want's to use my tab as a base to a better transcription. If use alot of this though it would be nice if they credited me. Any questions just email me - and remove the _NOSPAM_ from my email. :) I was thinking it would be nice to get all of Dog Problems tabbed out, but I don't think can be bothered if I am the only person having a go. Onto the song. ~ = hold the note x = hit the guitar or the strings (depends - I wasn't really sure where to put it, but it was needed for the beginning of the first verse) Tuning: EADGBe (Standard Tuning) 1st Verse: Piano e-------------------------------------------------| B-0-----1--------5--------------------------------| G-0--------------0--------------------------------| D----------------2--------------------------------| A-3--------------3--------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------|
