4.-BALACLAVA--------------------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Ok so there is 2 tabs already for this but this is my version with the
corrections and bits missed out by the others. I've made this tab in a way
so that any guitarist can learn this song no matter what level, to help
learn this song it helps if you have the song on whilst trying to learn
certain bits for timing etc.
Intro (Bass only)
Intro lyrics:
Running off over next doors garden before the hour is done
It's more a question of feeling than it is a question of fun
The confidence is the balaclava I'm sure you'll baffle 'em good
But the end in reek of salty cheeks and runny make up alone! Oh well...

Verse 1:
Lyrics:
Blood runs down the face of a boy bewildered and scorned
And you find yourself in a scurmage where you wish you'd never been born
An you tie to yourself to the tracks and there isn't no going back
And it's wrong wrong wrong but we'll do it anyway cause we love a bit of
trouble!

Lyrics
Are you pulling her from a burning building or throwing her to the sharks?
You can only hope that the ending is as pleasurable as the start
The confidence is the balaclava I'm sure you'll baffle them straight
And it's wrong wrong wrong and she can hardly wait.

Outro - Bass only:
Lyrics:
You knew that it would be trouble right before the very first kiss Quiet and
Unassuming but you heard that they were the naughtiest
She pleaded with you to take it off but you resisted and thought sorry
Sweetheart I'd much rather, keep on the balaclava

You used to get it in your fishnet
Now you only get it in your nightdress,
It started all the naughty nights with niceness,
Now they're in a very common crisis,
E
Everything's in order in a black hole
C#m
Is anything as pretty as her past though,
B G# F#m
That Bloody Mary's dripping in Tabasco
B
Remember when he used to be a rascal
F#m
Oh the boy's a slag

The best you ever had
F#m
The best you ever had

Is just a memory and those dreams

And as daft as they seem

My love, when you dream them up
E
Flicking through a little book of sex tips
C#m
Remember when the boys were all electric
B G#m F#m
Now when she tells she's gonna get it
B
I'm guessing that she'd finally just forget it
E
Figures for not getting sentimental
C#m
Said she wasn't going but she went still
B G# F#m
Now she gets her fella to be gentle
was it her knickerbockers or a bitten pencil(?)
F#m
Oh that boy's a slag

The best you ever had

The best you ever had

Woah oh

You're falling about

You took a left off Laspark Lane

6.ONLY ONES WHO KNOW----------------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------------------|
This is the most beautiful song of their new album "Favorite Worst Nightmare". Enjoy it!
==Intro==
F A7 Dm F Bb Gm F A7 Dm F Bb Gm F
==1st verse==
F A7 Dm
In a foreign place, the saving grace was the feeling
F Bb
And that it was a heart that he was stealing
Gm F
Oh he was ready to impress and the fierce excitement
A7 Dm
The eyes are bright he couldnt wait to get away
F Bb
I bet the juliet was just the icing on the cake
Am Gm
Make no mistake no
==Chorus==
Bb Bbm Am
And even if somehow we could have shown you the place you wanted
D7 Gm Bbm
Well I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own
==2nd verse==
F A7 Dm
And I bet she told a million people that she'd stay in touch
F Bb
Well all the little promises they dont mean much
Gm
When theres memories to be made
F A7 Dm
And I hope you're holding hands by new years eve
F Bb
They made it far too easy to believe
Am Gm
That true romance cant be acheived these days
==Chorus==
Bb Bbm Am
And even if somehow we could have shown you the place you wanted
D7 Gm
Well I'm sure you could have made it that bit better on your own
Bbm
You are the only ones who know
==Outro==

10.THE BAD THING--------------------------------------------|
------------------------------------------------------------|
Chorus:
Em Bm
Do the bad thing
Am G F#
Take off your wedding ring
Em Bm
But it wont make it that much easier
Am G F#
It might make it worse
Verse1: (rhythm |Dm 2 3 C| A 2 3 4|Dm 2 3 C|A 2 3 4|
Dm
The night's like a whirlwind
C A
Somebody's girlfriend is talking to me
Dm C A
But it's alright , she's saying that he's not that he's gonna slap me
A
Or try to attack me, he's not the jealous type
BRIDGE: heavy downstrokes!
Dm Am
I've been before and all these capers makers to the floor
Dm Am
Then to ignore, she's talking but I'm not entirely sure
Dm Am, Dm Am, Dm Am, F# G
CHORUS: (same progression Em, Bm, Am, G F# x2)
Do the bad thing
Take off your wedding ring
But it wont make it that much easier
It might make it worse
Verse2:
Dm (strum once, then bass only!)
Somebody's partner is talking to me
But I don't that is what she isn't
She murmurs things to confirm the tragedy is true
And I knew how could she not she could have anyone she wants
And I'm struggling to think of an immediate response
Bridge: Dm Am
Like I don't mind
Be a big mistake for you to wait and help me waste your time
Really love it's fine
Said really love it's fine
Dm Am x 3 F# G
FINAL CHORUS: same chords as original chorus, Em. Bm, Am, G F#
And the first time it occurred that there was something to destroy
I knew before the invitation that there was this ploy
Oh but she carried on suggesting
I struggled to refuse
She said it's the red wine this time
But that is no excuse
end on Em

I'm going back to 505 if it's a 7 hours flight or a 45 minute drive
In my imagination you're waiting lying on your side with your hands between your thighs
Dm Em
Dm Em
Stop and wait a sec when you look at me like that
Dm Em
My darling what did you expect? I probably still adore you
Dm Em
With your hands around my neck Or I did last time I checked
Dm Em
Dm Em Dm
I'm not shy of a spark The knife twists at the thought that I should fall short of the mark
Em Dm
Frightened by the bite no it's no harsher than the bark
Em Dm Em
A middle of adventure, such a perfect place to start
