SONG Secret Smile
TABBED BY DJSEEBS
I'm sorry if this tab seems kind of incomplete. I was just listening to the song and I want
to write it down before I forget it.

Don't always play the high strings. Hit them every once in a while for a cool lick thing.
Also, that last part is not always played, but emphisized. Play it anyway, it sounds
better :)

That guitar part in the background I think is playing something similar to this too.

| Thats the dumbest thing i've ever heard! this song is about a special bond you have with someone you care about. And the way you just connect with them and you have things that only the two of you understand.I love this song, it's so special | |

| I think people are missing a big part of this song. Its not sexual or a love song as much as it is a one way connection. The singer of this song sees the girl from afar, "Remove this whirling sadness I'm losing, I'm bluesingess" The song is mellow and sad, when he says Nobody knows it nobody applies to the person smiling as well. From afar it is like that persons smile represents hope or something that could make him happy. Least thats how i always saw it, The secret is the fun part about it, an unknown possibility between two people. | |

| Secret meanings are cool and are obvious in songs like closing time and maybe on the chamistry album but i cannot se this song fitting in as a hidden BJ song, and believe me i would love to find that out. The problem is this song doesn't even have a line in which you can stop and think damn this is not about bonding connecting. Anyway it's funny how this song has only 20 posts but gets more posts every year from 2002 to 2005. It's like it gets more popular every year which is great for a song. I myself had forgotten about that album i had bought a long time ago and started listening to it the otheer day. | |

| this song to me is about that one special friend you have that you can go to no matter how terrible you feel and they will put a smile on your face and no matter what may have been wrong when you went to them they will make you forget about it. | |
