Oxford Comma by Vampire Weekend There isn't any guitar in the verse or pre-chorus, so you either stand around for ages sing instead. To get the rhythm for the solo right just listen to the song n u'll get it. During the Chorus strum power chords over the top. Tabbing towards the end btw. Lyrics/Chords Verse: G Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma? D G D I've seen those English dramas too, They're cruel G D So if there's any other way To spell the word G D It's fine with me, with me Pre-Chorus: C D Why would you speak to me that way G D Especially when I always said that I C D Haven't got the words for you G D All your diction dripping with disdain C D Through the pain I always tell the truth Verse: G Who gives a fuck about an Oxford comma? D G D I climbed to Dharamsala too I did G I met the highest lama D G D His accent sounded fine to me, to me Pre-Chorus: C D Check your handbook It's no trick G D Take the chapstick Put it on your lips C D Crack a smile Adjust my tie G D Know your boyfriend, unlike other guys Chorus: C D Why would you lie about how much coal you have? G Am Why would you lie about something dumb like that? C D Why would you lie about anything at all? G Am First the window, then it's to the wall C D G Lil' Jon, he always tells the truth e|-3-3----|-3-3----| B|-3-3----|-3-3----| G|-4-4----|-4-4----| D|-5-5----|-5-5----| A|-5-5----|-5-5----| E|-3-3----|-3-3----| Solo: e|-10-10-10-10--10-10-12-10-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-14-15-| B|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-15-15-| G|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-14-14-14-14--14-14-14-14-| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------| e|-10-10-10-10--10-10-12-10-|-15-15-15-15--15-14-12-14-| B|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-13-15-| G|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-14-14-14-14--14-14-12-14-| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------| e|-10-10-10-10--10-10-12-10-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-14-15-| B|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-15-15-| G|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-14-14-14-14--14-14-14-14-| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------| e|-10-10-10-10--10-10-12-10-|-15-15-15-15--15-14-12-14-| B|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-15-15-15-15--15-15-13-15-| G|-12-12-12-12--12-12-12-12-|-14-14-14-14--14-14-12-14-| D|--------------------------|--------------------------| A|--------------------------|--------------------------| E|--------------------------|--------------------------| e|----------------------------|----------------------------| B|----------------------------|----------------------------| G|-11-12---12-11-9--------9-11|-11-9-----------------------| D|-----------------12--12-----|------12-10--9---10-9-------| A|----------------------------|---------------------12--10-| E|----------------------------|----------------------------| e|----------------------------|-----------------------------------| B|----------------------------|-----------------------------------| G|-11-12---12-12-12--12-12-12-|11-9-11--12--12-14--12--12-11-9-11-| D|----------------------------|-----------------------------------| A|----------------------------|-----------------------------------| E|----------------------------|-----------------------------------| Pre-Chorus: C D Check your passport It's no trick G D Take the chapstick Put it on your lips C D Crack a smile Adjust my tie G D Know your butler, unlike other guys Chorus: C D Why would you lie about how much coal you have?
