No one else bothered to post this so I took the liberty of figuring

it out myself. It may not be exactly right, but it sounds like it is.

Corrections, comments and questions are welcome at meunier.1@osu.edu

Beyond that, my only advice is to play it fast with as much attitude as you

can muster.

"36-24-36" by the Violent Femmes

written by Gordon Gano

Transcribed by Bryson Meunier

>From "Add It Up"

guitar solos and lyrics included(I'm including the lyrics because all I

really have is the guitar solos and solos alone do not a tab file make).

Thirty-six...Twenty-Four...Thirty-Six!

See a girl walkin' down the street

Just the kind of girl that I'd like to meet

It ain't her hair, her clothes, her feet

Somethin' much more discreet

I ain't allowed baby I ain't proud

I just want what I'm not allowed

Move on up and help myself

It do a world of good for my mental health

36-24-36, somethin's broke and it needs to be fixed

I don't know how to tell you this but I'm gettin bored

and I need some kicks like 36-24-36!

guitar solo 1:

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

B-----------------------------------------------------------

G------7b7-7r^h5---5----7--5--7h5---5-7b^h5-5--7--5--7--7b-----

D----------------7----------------7----------------------------

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

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

(You'll have to figure out the timing on your own but when played at the

same speed, with the same feel, this arrangement sounds very similar to the cd).

Man oh man oh man oh man

I got a red hot plan have you understand

It cannot fail it's plain to see

I'm havin' fun and makin' money

I know this summer's gonna be the best

If I don't die from lack of rest

"Experience" what my daddy said

That's what I got just like he said

36-24-36, somethin was broke but I got it fixed

I don't know if I should tell you this

but I's gettin bored and I got my kicks!

like 36-24-36

Something special, about her personality

Something special, about her physiology

Guitar solo 2:

E---------------------------------------------5----------------------|

B--10b-------7h5---5-5------------------------5------------11--10--9-|

G----------------7-----7b^h5-----5--7--5--7b--5--------/13-----------|

D----------------------------7--------------------0------------------|

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

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

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

B-7-----------------------------------2\-------------|

G-----10--9--8--7--6\-----------------2\-------------|

D----------------------8--7-6-5-4-3---2\-------------|

A-------------------------------------0--------------|

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

(Again, you're on your own as far as timing is concerned. Also again, I know

this isn't exact but it definitely sounds similar when played correctly.

Don't follow the numerical indicators in the last part of this solo

verbatim. Just use them as a guideline and walk up the neck to a tune that

suits you).

36-24-36 I want lots of pretty chicks

36-24-36 I want lots of pretty chicks

36-24-36 I want lots of pretty chicks

36-24-36 I want lots of!

Subject: TAB: "36-24-36" by violent femmes(correction)

This is a small correction meant to be added to the already

existing"36-24-36.tab" file at OLGA. The hammer-ons are actually meant to

be pull-offs. So it's not 7h5 but rather 7p5. Maybe this was

self-explanatory given the numbers' relation to one another but I thought

I'd correct it anyway for the sake of clarity.I apologize for the mistake

but I posted it around finals week and I wasn't in complete control of my

senses. Remarkably,though, the solos still sound decent to me. Write me if

you disagree.
