Because the song is a total mess of short bits repeated many times in
different orders, I tried to tab the short bits. Just listen to the
record and try to figure out the whole song , if you have patience. I
didn't. I numbered the parts from (1) to (6).
(1) (2)
------------------------------------ same -------------|
------------------------------------ as -------------|
13---13-----11-11---10--10----8-8--- (1), 10-11-10-8---|
13---13-----11-11---11--11----9-9--- but 11-11-11-9---|
11---11-----9--9----11--11----9-9--- ends 11-11-11-9---|
--------------------9---9-----7-7--- with 9--9--9--7---|
(3) (4)
------------------------------------- same --------|
------------------------------------- as 7-9-----|
--------------11-11------------------ (3), 9-11---|
11--9--11--9--11-11-11--9--11(xx-xx-x-) but 9-11-|
11--9--11--9--9--9--11--9--11(xx-xx-x-) ends 7-9--|
9---7--9---7--------9---7--9-(xx-xx-x-) with -----|
play (3) 2 times, those x's are used
for the first time. It means: mute the strings.
(5) (6)
--9---4----6---- ---8-----6-----------|
---------------- ---9-----7-----6-----|
-8-8-6-6-----5-- -10-10-10-10--7--7---|
6---4-----6----6 -10-10-10-10-8----8--|
---------6------ 8-----6------8-----8-|
--------4------- ------------6--------|
After the first three minutes there's a part like this, mostly just guitar:
(1) (1) (1)
---------------- ---------------- ---------------- ----------------|
4--------------- 4---6---4------- 4--------------- 4-------6---9---|
6--------------- 6---8---6------- 6--------------- 6-------8---11--|
6--------------- 6---8---6------- 6--------------- 6-------8---11--|
4--------------- 4---6---4------- 4--------------- 4-------6---9---|
An then, another three minutes of these short parts combined in strange
ways, with little guitar solo bits. I hope if this was of ANY assistance.

Tab(correct version): "Feeling Better" by Sugar
Written by Bob Mould, (c)1993 Granary Music
Transcribed by [email protected]
Note: This song is played with a capo on the 1st fret.
The tab is transposed to reflect that.
(i.e. a 1 on the B string will be C#, not C. Get it?)
Just follow along with the song, putting the bits and pieces together,
and you should figger it out.
Geez, Bob Mould can write some complex shit!
