Subject: TAB: Promise by the Violent Femmes

Here's Promise by the Violent Femmes from the album Violent Femmes (good name

guys). I don't know the names of power chords so I'll just tab them! Here goes:

Main Riff:

-------5-3-----------------

--4-4--5-3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3/4

--4-4--3-1-3-3-3--3-3-3-3/4

E--2-2------1-1-1--1-1-1-1/2 (the 224 chord there is the slide right

into the repeat of the riff, just repeat the riff during the verses)

then

-- -5 -3

-5 -5 -3

-5 -3 -1

E-3 -- --

could you ever want me to love you? could you ever want me to care?

-that part I'm a bit iffy on but it's close. Obviouslyyou hit each of those

chords more than once -listen to the song!

that should do it! Send love letters, hate mail, & useless Femmes info to
