ARTIST:Gin Blossoms TITLE:Hold Me Down (4:50) WRITTEN BY:Doug Hopkins A B5 - C#5 - D5 - A5 - E B5 - C#5 - D5 - A5 - D5 - A5 B5 C#5 D So I guess I must have just been dreaming A5 E When I thought I heard myself say no B5 C#5 D A5 D5 A5 Anyway it looks like no one heard me so here I go (continue with these chords. Solo and and end is over A chord) Cause when you're in the company of strangers Or just the strangers you call friends You know before you start just how it's going to end When the doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around Anytime the pickins look too easy...hold me down I can't remember why I like this feeling When it only seems to let me down Soon I find I'm searching for the exit from the ground If I think the room is turning faster Then I think the music is too loud By then I've lived another broken story to let me down When those doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around When half the party moves into the bathroom...hold me down Or if you're at the tail end of the evening And Dr. Feelgood comes around Anytime the pickins look too easy...hold me down Down if I want that part Down if I've gone too far Well I guess I must have just been reeling When I felt myself begin to fall I realize I'm bounding down the hallways and off the walls If my bed was standing in the corner I could just fall into it right now And know that I'd just be staring at the ceiling going round When those doors swing open and all the drinks are passed around Anytime the pickins look too easy...hold me down Intro and chorus rythmn guitar part: B5 C#5 D A E |------------2p0-2p0--------------------0--0-0-0-0--| |---------3--3-3-3-3-3----2--3p2-3p2-0--0--0-0-0-0--| |---------2--2-2-2-2---2--2--2-2-2-2----1--2p1-2p1--| |-4---4-6-0---------------2--2-2-2-2----2--2-2-2-2--| |-2---2-4-----------------0-------------2-----------| |---------------------------------------0-----------| B5 C#5 D A D5 A |------------2p0-2p0--------------------------------| |---------3--3-3-3-3------2--2---3-3--2--2----------| |---------2--2-2-2-2------2--2---2-2--2--2----------| |-4---4-6-0---------------2--2---0-0--2--2----------| |-2---2-4-----------------0--0--------0--0----------| |---------------------------------------------------| Verse rythmn guitar part B5 C#5 D A E |---------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------| |----------------------1--1-1-----------| |-4---4-6-7---7--7-----2--2-2-----------| |-2---2-4-5---7--7-----2--2-2------0----| |-------------5--5-4-2-0--0-0--0-2------| B5 C#5 D5 A5 D5 A5 |---------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------| |--------------------7--7---------------| |-4---4-6-7---7--7---7--7--7--7---------| |-2---2-4-5---7--7---5--5--7--7---------| |-------------5--5---------5--5---------| I know parts of the fills, but not enought to tab it though.
