"Gift" by Sugar, from the album F.U.E.L.

Transcribed by Daniel Meijer 

 

The main chord riff....ie the intro...is sus2 chords:
		
 Bsus2								
 Dsus2
E---2------------5-------------|
B--2-2-2-2------5-5-5-5--------|
G--4-------4----7-------7------|
D--4------------7--------------|
A--2------------5--------------|
E--x-------------x-------------|

Hold the chord while you play the little line on the 2nd & 3rd string. So in the verse, when I say "Bsus2" 
mean the riff above.

-----A>>>B---  means bend note A to the pitch of B.

Lead Break:

				
 F#5						
 D5					
 A5						
 E5						
 D5
e---------------------5>>>7----------------------|
B-----------------------------5>>>>7-------------|
G--4>>>>6-----7>>>>9-------------------7>>>>9----|

 A								
 E													
 D													
 E
Pleasantly surprised, I never thought you'd realise that maybe


 Bsus2		
 Dsus2
I						have taken this from you


 A							
 E													
 D						
 E
If I was deserving, who am I to disagree


 A									
 E											
 D								
 B
How can I refuse this, even if I don't deserve it?


 
  

And now, I give this gift to you
Could have got you anything but this will have to do
It's how I give this gift to you
Doesn't seem like much but it's the best that I could do
I'm giving everything away before I go for good.


  


   F#5														
   E
And once you give the gift away
						
   D												
   Bsus2
there's nothing you can do about it.

   F#m										
   E
Nothing that you do or say
				
   D												
   Bsus2
can change the way I feel about it

   F#m								
   E
Try to look inside of me
			
   D													
   Bsus2
To find the gift that I am giving

   F#m									
   E
Glad you had a chance to see
				
   D										
   Bsus2
the gift that I'm delivering
