My first tab! This tab is based on the Acoustic version of the song that can be found here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZoR-a0e5gU (Use this for strumming patterns and precision if you're having
any difficulty :D)
(On some parts of the song, Tyler plays a small riff [7-5-3] on the highest E String. This is completely
optional, but if you want to play it, it will be marked in the chords with an *asterisk.)
[Intro]
*Riff Em D G (x2)
[Verse 1]
*Riff Em D G
We don't believe what's on TV
*Riff Em D G
Because it's what we want to see
*Riff Em D G
And what we want, we know we can't believe
*Riff Em D G
We have all learned to kill our dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em G D
I need to know that when I fail you'll still be here (oooohhhh)
Am Em G D
'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds and we'll make money selling your hair
[Chorus]
Em C G D
I don't care what's in your hair, I just wanna know what's on your mind
Em C G D
I used to say I wanna die before I'm old, but because of you I might think twice
[Bridge]
(A lot of people think this song is about Josh, but it is not)
*Riff Em D G
(But today it is!)
Em D G G
(to Josh: You told me not to look at you but I'm looking at you. I'm sorry.)
[Verse 2]
Em D G
What if my dream does not happen?
*Riff Em D G
Would I just change what I've told my friends?
Em D G
Don't want to know who I would be
Em D G
When I wake up from a dreamer's sleep
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em G D
I need to know that when I fail you'll still be here (oooohhhh)
Am Em G D
'Cause if you stick around, I'll sing you pretty sounds and we'll make money selling your hair
[Chorus] x2
Em C G D
I don't care what's in your hair, I just wanna know what's on your mind
Em C G D
I used to say I wanna die before I'm old, but because of you I might think twice
[Outro]
*Riff Em D G (x2)
*Riff Em D G
We don't believe what's on TV
