Title: "On The Roof Again"
Artist: EVE 6
Album: Horrorscope
Tabbed by: Alex Stroshane (Edge2693@hotmail.com)

Oops...I forgot they won't let you have more than one
tab per file, so they cut out the correct EVE 6 way
from my first post. Here is just the correct way:

Tune down a full step (D A F C G D).

Use some distortion, typical EVE 6 sound, mid pickup
if playing a Strat-style guitar.

I will use the verse lyrics as cues for variations during
the verse, since I'm too lazy to count the bars and all.
You will pick it up quickly if you have the CD handy, it's
really pretty easy.

x = strum muted string
= slide up
P = palm mute
(7)=7th fret harmonic

Intro/Verse
-----------
*-----This is the basic riff.-----*
G-3-|-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9------|
D-4-|-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9------|
A-4-|-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7------|
E-2-|-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7------------(7)(7)|

Play the above until you get to the line:
"He was the prodigal son..."
There you play this variation:

G-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9---9-|
D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9---9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-----------7---7-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|---------------------|
He was the....had brought him home.

Now back to the standard riff, until "cute Guatemalan":

G-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7-x-9-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7-------------x---|
...with this cute Guatemalan.

Back to main riff until "cool and collected":

Now back to the standard riff, until "Riding high...":

G-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7-x-9-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7-------------x---|
...had only gotten him down.

Back to main riff until "together til...":

G-8-8-----------9-9-9-|-----9-------9-9-|
D-9-9-----------9-9-9-|-----9-------9-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7-7-7-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|

A-7-7-7-7-5-5-|

Chorus

Same as before.

Bridge

Just play this one bit over and over, listen to the CD
for the timing.

A-7-7---7-7---7-7---7-7-|

A hypothetical scenario for a friend of the band who got married young. Like much of Horrorscope, this dwells in the surreal and a fantasy-world, not real experiences. The lyrics were actually rushed and written in the eleventh hour, with surprisingly good results. Also the last song played at their last concert, ever.

I think it's about a young guy who got married on a whim, but made a mistake by cheating on his new wife ("things were cool and collected till she found him erected with another") and when she broke up with him, he realized just how much he missed her and was attemptin suicide ("and then he went to the roof where his threats ring loud and clear - gonna jump, gonna jump, gonna die this year..."). But when they got back together again he just got screwed around by her, and it's his mate basically saying to him "hey wake up to yourself, yeah you stuffed up first time but you made up for it, and now she's screwing aronud with you, get on top of your life!"

"Your heinous highness broke her hymen hey man try to quit your crying" One of the coolest sequence of words I've ever heard.

i love this song! its about being in love with someone but them being totally wrong for you. and just about letting go but you have this certain tie with them that you just can't get away from. also the line - tied the knot not knowing how to not know - is freakin amazing. i love it!
