Song: Not Like The Other Girls
Artist: The Rasmus
Album: Dead Letters
Tuning: Standard
Tabbed by: hibushin
email: jumboalx@aol.com
Ok, there's two guitar parts right throughout the song, three in the solo.
The layout is self explanatory. This song rocks, and I haven't seen a
decent tab for it yet, so I decided to tab it all. This tab includes ALL
the guitar parts I could hear. If I've made any mistakes, email me at
xenolith42@hotmail.com. The only thing I'm not sure of is some of the
harmonics and pinch harmonics in the solo.
(#) = Ghost note. Don't play the note in brackets, just let ring from before.
[#] = Natural Harmonic. [12] is a 12th fret harmonic.
v = Vibrato
/ = Slide up
= Slide Down
x = Palm mute
^ = Bend
h = Hammer on
p = Pull off
{#} = Harmonic. Play note at #th fret, then lightly touch string halfway along length.
* = Pinch harmonic
t = Tremelo picking

| No I don't think its about a father...it must have been her boyfriend...and he's saying even though he knew she had problems that he loved her so much it didn't bother him and he just wanted to be with her...but then she committed suicide | |

| at first i thought it was about somebody with autism, then i realised it was about somebody suffering from a mental illness which could lead to suicide... i hope he helped her in the end | |

| this seems like a guy who knew a girl who wasn't happy but he wanted to try and change her but ultimately, he couldn't and she commited suicide "No more shame, She has felt too much pain, in her life" & "she lives in the clouds and talks to the birds, hopeless little one". | |

| it could be about someone with depression and stuff.... fading away - withdrawing from everyone, drifting like a feather- floating without a purpose from one place to the next, lives in the clouds - spends all her time in her head dreaming about what should be or what is wrong with her life, she talks to the birds - doesnt have anyother friends and so she talks to birds?? this song reminded me of me thats what it means to me.. i talk to inanimate objects and animals all the time.. usually better than talking to people.... doesnt nessessarily mean that she killed herself | |

| Im almost sure its not about suicide, I rememeber reading somewhere an interview whith lauri and that he commented on this song that its specially for a friend of his that has so much troubles in her life that its almost like a grey cloud following her around. Its not about someone who commited suicide, its just about someone who is really sad and has suffering so much that she is loosing her "flame" her soul... sad but true | |
