Song: Wrecking Ball
Artist: Mother Mother
Album: O My Heart
Tabbed by: Rory Lidstone
Ok, so. I think this is a fairly accurate tab. Unfortunately,
I just couldn't be bothered to tab out the finger-picked part
near the end note-for-note... Just use your best judgement.
Capo 7, all notes and chord names relative to the capo.
Intro/Verse
(I'm not sure if this should be 2 guitars. It seems like it, and when
I saw them live, it seemed like Ryan was only playing the main riff part.
You can try just forming the chord and playing both parts simultaneously,
but that might be awkward for the G6 part.)
Gtr 1
C
e|-----------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|
G|-----0--2--4--2--0-----0-----|
D|--2-----------------4--------|
A|-(3)-------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|
Gtr 2
C
e|--0------0------0------0-----|
B|------1------1------1------1-|
G|----0-0----0-0----0-0----0-0-|
D|-----------------------------|
A|-----------------------------|
E|-----------------------------|
Do that x2. Then:
Gtr 1
G6
e|-------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------|
G|-----0--2--4--2--0-----0-----------0-------------|
D|--0-----------------4-----0--2--4-----4--2--2--0-|
A|-(2)---------------------(2)---------------------|
E|-(3)---------------------(3)---------------------|
Gtr 2
G6
e|---0-------0--------0-------0-------0-------0--------0-------0-----------|
B|--------3-------3--------3-------3-------3-------3--------3-------3------|
G|------4-4-----4-4------4-4-----4-4-----4-4-----4-4------4-4-----4-4------|
D|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
So just repeat that whole section as needed for the intro/verse until:
Chorus
Am I am unruly in the standFs,
I am a rock on top of the saCnd,
I am a fist amidst the haDnds
and I break it jDust because I can.
Then there's another verse, then chorus then:
Bridge
GLet's Embreak it!D
(just because we can.)
GDefaEmce it! D
(just because we can.)
GLet's Embreak it!
FJust Ambecause.. just because..F just becaAmuse..
just becFa Ga aCuse
The C chord from the bridge melds back into the chorus with a fingerpicked C
chord. Descend the root note from C to B then into the Am root note:
C B Am
e|-----------0------------|
B|-----------1------------|
G|-----------2------------|
D|-----------2------------|
A|--3--2--0--0------------|
E|------------------------|
In fact, do that when going from C to Am in this entire next section
until the "because i can" part.
Am I am unruly in the sFtands
I am a rock on top of the sCand
I am a fist amidst the Amhands
and I make a wreck out of my hFand
I make a fist and not a Cplan
C! Am <--Start strumming hard!
and I break it just because I can!
because I cFan! because I cCan!
because I cAman! because I cFan!
because I cCan! because I cAman!
because I cFa Ga Cann...
The C melds into the first bit from the intro/verse, which gets played a couple
times. The last time, though, the second part ends like this:
e|-------------------------|
B|-------------------------|
G|-----------0-----------0-|
D|--0--2--4-----4--2--4----|
A|--2----------------------|
E|--3----------------------|
That's it! Mostly, anyway. Enjoy!
