German Motor Car Tab

by Margot And The Nuclear So And Sos


Band- Margot and the Nuclear So & So's
Song- German Motor Car
Album- Not Animal!
Tabber: Jon Green

This is my version of German Motor Car off of the Not Animal! album by
Margot and the Nuclear So & So’s. The song is really simple to play and fun
to play. Listen to the song to get the rhythm down. Sorry that the chord 
names are wrong but I don’t know the correct names for them, so sorry. 
Plus I think there are a couple of mistakes in the chord progressions. 
Let me know where you think they are at and I will change the tab.

Standard Tuning is used for this song.

Well it sure felt nice getting ripped apart
in that junked out german motorcar
          
              
I've got you…

(Main Riff)

Well, the robots cleaned at alarming speed
all the bedroom sheets and the tv screens
    
      
without you	
                        
I haven't a thing to do, no more
                   *                     
this is how you ditch someone that drives you mad.


(Main Riff when lyrics begin)
I struggled and swam through a panicked sea
I had a backyard gang and I dressed in green.
         
I had you…
                          
So I never had the blues, not me

                  *                        
this is how you ditch someone that drives you mad

                                    
So, I will sit right down and stare at the wall
                                         
and pray that you are nothing like your photo at all
                               
I will sit right down and stare at the wall
                                       
and pray that you are nothing like your photo at all

Interlude: 
F  (Played at the 9th fret), F (Played at the 10th fret)  (Four times)

(Silent)
Well it sure felt nice getting ripped apart
