What I Am - Edie Brickell

Tabbed by Howard Wright

Can't remember the name of the album

it's from, but it's the one with the

child-like colourful drawings of the

band on the front.

Intro/Main Riff :

------------------

This is all based on the sus2 shape :

EADGBE

x24422

Bsus2

Just move it up two D, then down to A, then back to B.

E-----------------------------5-------------------------------2----

B---------2----2--------5------------------------0------------2----

G---------4----4--------------------------2----2---------4---------

D---------4----4------7-------------------2--2---------4-----------

A--2--2-2----2------5------5-------0-0-0-------------2------2------

E------------------------------------------------------------------

Verse :

--------

Keep repeating the main riff over these words :

I'm not aware of too many things

I know what I know if you know what I mean

(Repeat once)

Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box

Religion is the smile on a dog

I'm not aware of too many things

I know what I know if you know what I mean

De-doo yeah

Chorus:

--------

Em D

Chuck me in the shallow water

Em D

Before I get too deep

(Repeat once - I think ..)

Then back to the main riff.

The whole song is just these two parts - the sus2 riff

alternating with Em and D for the chorus.

There's a little lead line on guitar over the chorus :

Em D

E---12---15---12-----12---------14---12------

B----------------15------15--15----------15--

G--------------------------------------------

D--------------------------------------------

A--------------------------------------------

E--------------------------------------------

Chuck me in the shallow water

That's about it !
