Tuning: E A D G
Fugazi - I'm So Tired Note: This is an alternate version based on the original but played on the bass guitar and consists of two melodies played at the same time. I know this song is just piano and vocals but I really liked it and wanted to play it on bass so I took the root note of the chords played by the left hand on the piano and a bastardized version of the vocals and got: [Piano] G|----------------|----------------| D|----------------|----------------| A|--------2-------|--------3-------| E|3---------------|0---------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Vocals] G|---4-2-----2-1--|------4-5-4---24| D|----------------|------------5---| A|----------------|----------------| E|----------------|----------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + Then a figured out how to play both of these melodies at the same time. This makes fingering, timing, and plucking a little tricky and hard to explain over tab. For my right hand I use my middle finger as an anchor on the D string and pluck with my index and thumb. This should work for most of the song except for the odd time you pluck the D string. My left hand uses my index finger to play the piano while my other fingers simultaneously play the vocals. Notation: Fingering is indicated above the staff with the index finger being 1 and the pinky being 4. I have included the fingering for only the vocals as the piano is always played by the index finger. Each space is a 16th note with "=" indicating how long a note should be held. This is what makes it sound more like two melodies but also makes it a little trickier then just playing a simple chord every once in a while. Here it is all put together: [Intro] 4 4 4 4 3 4 14 G|----4===4=======|======4=5=4=--24| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Verse 1] 4 2 2 1 4 4 3 4 14 G|===4=2=====2=1==|======4=5=4=--24| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 4 14 G|====4===8===8===|9===4===5=4=--24| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|----------------|--------3===----| x2 E|3===----7===----|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Bridge 1] 4 4 4 4 4 3 4 14 G|--------4=======|====4===5=4=--24| D|5===------------|2===--------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Verse 2] 4 2 2 1 4 4 3 4 14 G|===4=2=====2=1==|======4=5=4=--24| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 4 4 4 4 4 3 4 14 G|====4===8===8===|9===4===5=4=--2=| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|----------------|--------3===----| x2 E|3===----7===----|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Bridge 2] 4 4 4 4 4 4 G|----------------|----------------| D|5=======5====5==|4=======4====4==| A|----------------|2=======2=======| E|3=======3=======|----------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 4 4 4 4 3 4 14 G|----4===--------|------4=5=4=--24| D|------------4===|----2===----5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + [Outro] 4 2 2 2 1 4 4 3 4 14 G|===4=2======2===|2=1===4=5=4=--24| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 2 2 1 4 4 3 4 1 G|====4=======2===|2=1===4=5=4=--2=| D|----------------|------------5=--| A|--------2===----|--------3===----| x2 E|3===------------|0===------------| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 G|----------------| D|5===============| A|----------------| E|3===============| 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + Hopefully the notation will make it easier to understand. It isn't too diffuclt but does require a bit of practice. Once you figure it out though its a ton of fun to play. Thanks!
