This is my third tab which was sent to OLGA. Now, this's an old song

which has been around for like 3-4 years? Anyway, was playing the CD

on my long bus ride home when I suddenly felt that this's a god damm

nice song. When I reached home, I immediately look for the tab.

Although I found 1 but it was not correct. No ownership is found in

the tab but here is it, just in case you wanna compare -

C - C - Am - Em.

So I spent around 2 hours tabbing this one out from scratch. Enjoy.

Rhythm chords are in this manner -

F - F - Dm - C

(Repeated through the whole song - Cranberries's trademark)

Verse:

F F Dm C

There was...............so lonely (Away)

F F Dm C

Remember................a Friday. (Away)

Intro/Verse:

F F Dm C

E-|--------1-----------1-----------1-----------0--------|

B-|------1---1-------1---1-------3---3-------1---1------|

G-|----2-------2---2-------2---2-------2---0-------0----|

D-|--3-----------3-----------0-----------2--------------|

A-|-----------------------------------------------------|

E-|-----------------------------------------------------|

This riff is played through the whole song expect the chorus.

Chorus:

F F

E-|-1--1---------------+-1----1-------------------------|

B-|-1----1-------------+-1------1--- This is played at -|

G-|-2------------------+-2--2------- the end of each -|

D-|-3------------------+-3---------- chorus verse. -|

A-|--------------------+--------------------------------|

E-|- M A I N R I F F -+--------------------------------|

The chorus is a bit tricky, you must listen to the song

carefully to get the timing. The rhythm chords is still

the same but the lead guitar is holding F throughout.

It may sound difficult performing this part but basically

you strum the F chord from your D to High-E before

plucking the "F" and "C" notes. Well, the chorus tab

might not be 100% correct but it is definitely close.

- CD Timing for the first chorus -

00:58 - Start of chorus

00:59 - Start of the F strum

01:01 - Start of the F strum

01:03 - Start of the F strum

01:05 - Start of the F strum

As you can see its at ABOUT a 2 sec interval.

You should get the rhythm by now, if you can't, listen

to this part a few times.

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

That's basically all to this song. Simple and nice.

Anyone care to tab out the bass?
