Roses - Outkast
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: SilentDeftone

Tuning: EADGBe

Okay, this is the jazzy little piano part in the beginning of the song.
Someone posted in Tab Talk requesting a transcription from a .jpg of sheet music,
so I transcribed it and decided to submit it as well.

The chords on top of the tab are chords that were notated in the bass clef.

~ = sustain note

I tried to tab with as accurate timing as I could, but you'll probably have to listen to
the song.

Please rate this tab, and enjoy!

why don't you give andre a thorough demonstration of how it should be done....I don't think he'll get it if you don't follow through though.

if anybody really thought about this song and looked under the skin, they would realise that someone with serious problems would write this. im not saying its a bad song, im saying its got a deeper meaning than most can perceive

Yo this song is really cool.Like many Outkasts song,they have crazy videos and hard to understand meanings.But its cool...outkast is da sh*t.The thing about OUtkast is that Ive even seen hardcore Goths jamming to Outkast,alot of people just listen to Outkast.

yeah Ciyaak is right, im not into hip-hop but im surely a Outkast Fan and i got almost all of their CDs, I think this song is one of the best, it talks about Girls who like to play guys and use their Looks to get Popularity and Toy guys around still they dont think they are hated, and they dont realiase how many people cry for them "Roses really smelll like boo-hooo" ( boo-hooo is a crying sound to me ) well at least thats what i get from this song ^^

Yeah that 'black friend' comment is pretty fuckin stupid. Anyway this song is hilarious and brilliant. I'm sure that everyone get's that he's pretty pissed off at gold diggers and groupies. Hey Andre, I'm a real down to Mars chick...so what's up baby?! (just kidding.....sort of)

they never cease to amaze me - they dare to write songs about girls speeding on the way to the club and crashing and making it, not only funny but COOL. if you have never seen this video i highly recommend it. their album in general is much worth the grammy hype "which one of ya'll speakerboxxes hit me in the love below?" in a see of monotonous artists who co-write all their shit, here are two people who have almost as much creativity flowing through them as $$$!
