If you haven’t heard these guys yet, you’re missing out. It’s hard
to explain exactly what they sound like. But it’s been called “acoustic
punk.”
I play all of the notes barred. But, ya know, you can play it
whatever way suits you best. It’s pretty easy and it sounds good. Probably
the hardest part is all of the muting that’s going on. But listen to the
CD and you should be able to pick up on it pretty quick. Have fun!Intro:Drums do their thingVerse 1a:G

Verse 1

Am                                    F
Don’t you got better things to do than spread

your gossip and speak what’s untrue?

C
You go to church, see through your haughty eyes

G
Go to your friends and tell all your lies

Am                                 F
Go on over to your stupid social clique

C
You religious hypocrites make me so sick

G
You without sin, go ahead, cast the first stone

(No chord)
I didn’t think so, so why don’t you just go home.

Prechorus:

E                         Am
You claim to be a leader, you claim to make a stand

E                                Am
But when your brother’s falling, you won’t even 

F                           Am?
give a hand. You claim to be so holy, you claim

F                         E
to be so strong, but behind your charade i know

your motives are so wrong.

Chorus:

Am         F           C        G
It don’t mean a thing cuz talk is cheap

Am         F             C                G
Your actions count but your words you can’t keep

Am         F           C        G
It don’t mean a thing cuz talk is cheap

Am                F                 C              G
You think you're so righteous, but I think you’re a creep

Verse 2 (same chords)
You’re the kinda person who looks at others’ sin
and spreads the word forgetting your own within (oh no)
You go to church to see what’s in the news
So you can gossip, so you can lie, so you can confuse

Pre-chorus 2 (same chords)
See your brother’s falling down all the time
Instead of showing mercy you convict him of a crime
You like to watch them as they fall on down
Instead of helping them you push them to the ground

Chorus again

The end (this is neat):

vox 1: chorus lyrics

vox 2: you’ll never be a leader, you’ll never make a stand.
until you change your ways, my God will not hold out his hand.

vox 3: You claim to be so close to God. Behind the mask,
motives are wrong.

The rest is Am, F, C, and G. It sounds nice to hammer on from
Asus2 to Am. Listen to the song. Don’t gossip! :0)

Ryan (hierarchyofsnakes@yahoo.com)

They're acutally just Calibretto now but oh well.
I'm postive the intro is right but i'm not too sure about the other stuff.

Intro:
Am Dm G C F D Em


Am           Dm
Am I bein' untrue
G                  C
when i blame it on you
     F           D                  Em
afterall I'm the one who let you go in (it's all my fault now)

Am           Dm
I'm sorry to say
G               C
that I gave you away
            F       D                       E
to somebody else, I fear I'll never see you again (because of my own sin)

(I think at this part he just hits F eight times and then strums it a couple.
And then does it twice more..  I'm probably wrong though)


I should've stopped you
instead of turning away
losing your love
is a regret to this day
if I loved you at all
I could find words to say
but I didn't
so now it's too late

I should have said
don't go into the woods
don't let go of my hand
I should have said
don't go into the woods
do you understand me?
woah

Am I bein untrue
when i blame it on you
afterall I'm the one who let you go in, it's all my fault now
that I gave you away
to somebody else, I fear I'll never see you again, because of my own sin

is it because
you finished it second place?
but that's not true baby
don't you know that you won that race?
I guess I should've informed you
cuz I miss your sweet face
and now your gone
and now your gone without a trace

I should have said
don't go in to unknow places
young girls vanish without traces
I could not let that happen to you
woah
but if you leave me, oh just maybe
strangers in the dark are waiting
when you're gone there's nothing I can do

there's animals in that woods
and there's shadows in that woods
oh baby, there's manaics in that woods
but you're taking your chances
ain't no second glances
but you're taking your chances
Nooo!!!!

don't go in to unknow places
young girls vanish without traces
I could not let that happen to you
woah
but if you leave me, oh just maybe
strangers in the dark are waiting
when you're gone there's nothing I can do
NOO!

don't go into the woods
don't go into the woods


So those are the chords and lyrics for it.
I don't feel like putting the chords in so you can figure that out.

Cool song by a new “acoustic punk” band.  Easy to play.  There are a 
couple bass solos that I didn’t feel like tabbing out, but they’re not
hard to figure out.  Enjoy.

All Chords Barred

Verse 1:
G                          D     C
Well, you’re a good looking guy and you’re under 21.
G			     D		   C 
You party all night and you have a lot of fun.
G				D	  C
You dropped out of school and you do nothing all day.
G   		    D     C
You can’t seem to find a job, but that’s ok.
G   				       D	    C 
Cause you live with your girlfriend, and she takes care of you.
G				  D  	       C 
You share the same bed and you promise to be true.
G 				D	    C
She wants to get married, but you’d rather not.
G(stop)		  D(stop)
The only reason you like her is because she’s hot.

Chorus:
G	D	   G
Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C	     D 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C     D           G 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life.

Verse 2:
G(let ring)
Well you’re getting nowhere and you’re getting there fast.
G(let ring)
Your heathen lifestyle’s not gonna last.
G(let ring)
You’re wasting your life, but you don’t care.
G(let ring)
You’re living for today, for the prince of the air.
G		     D
Your life is a party and it sure ain’t dull.
G		     D
You’re living for today and you’re on a roll.
G		     D
You don’t have a worry you think all is well.
G(stop)                       D(stop) 
But you don’t know you’re on your way to Hell.

Chorus:
G	D          G
Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C	     D 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C     D           G 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. 

Verse 3: (Spoken w/ Bass Solo)

Now every weekend is the same routine.
You get hooked up and you do the same old thing.
You smoke some marijuana, get as high as a kite.
Take down 3 more beers, get into another fight.
Go upstairs with a girl and sleep around.
Wake up the next morning find yourself on the ground.
This so-called-life that you live is full of sin, 
G(stop)				  D(stop)
But my God can set you free if you would just let Him in.

Chorus:
G	D          G
Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C	     D 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life.
G           D           C     D           G 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. 

Verse 4: (Spoken w/ Bass Solo)

Okay, in your world you’re so freakin’ cool, 
But in our world you are nothing,
And you need to get a life!
G           D           C	     D 
Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life. Get a Life.
G               D                  C         D          G 
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah

Um... yeah. Calibretto bass lines would appear to be even
harder to figure out than FIF and the Supertones combined, so...
yeah. There are probably some mistakes, so if anybody tries to play
this and finds them, let me know.

Tab By: Steve Cox (Steco682@aol.com)

An actual acoustic song from this “acoustic punk” band. This is a nifty
little song that I thought I’d share with everyone. Enjoy.


Intro: D(strum once)

Verse:(accapella w/ a really bad English accent)

If I were an apple, hanging on a tree,
I’d give myself to the first green worm,
And together we would be.
He’d make a little hole and live inside of me,
He would be my best friend,
And he’d keep me company.

If I were an apple, hanging on a tree,
D
I’d give myself to the first green worm,
A
And together we would be.
D			     G
He’d make a little hole and live inside of me,
D
He would be my best friend,
A 
And he’d keep me company.
D                   G
But I am not an apple, hanging on a tree. (No, No)
D                   A
I am nothing but an empty human being.
D                       G
But Jesus wants to come and live inside of me,
D			    A
And be my best friend, and keep me company.
