Lyrics & Chords
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Am (4 bars)
Don t believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don t believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you that I m in love with you
Don t believe me if I tell you
That I wrote this song for you
There just might be some other silly pretty girl
I m singing it to
Don t believe a word
For words are only spoken
And our heart is like a promise
Made to be broken
| | | | | | | | | [solo]
| | | | | | | | |
Don t believe a word
Words can tell lies
And lies are no comfort
When there s tears in your eyes
Don t believe me if I tell you
Not a word of this is true
Don t believe me if I tell you
Especially if I tell you that I m in love with you
Don t believe a word
No, don t believe a word, don t believe me
Don t believe me
Am G/B Am shuffle Am ad libitum
Oh, not a single word, ooh.
Note: Both in the lead guitar and in the bass part, chords only indicate the
overall harmony. There s no rhythm guitar strumming the chords.
As to the lead guitar part... there s neither bar division nor rhythm notation.
I hope you understand, it seemed impossible to me... anyhow I wrote indicative
chord names above the tab and tried to divide the solo in "phrases". Maybe
approximation.
Here it is:

|--------------------------------|----------------|---------------------------|
|--------------------------------|----------------|---------------------------|
|--------------------------------|----------------|---------------------------|
Now and then there s a second guitar playing chords on the high positions,
e.g. (from low E to high E):
Dm: x-x-12-10-10-10, or Em7: x-x-9-9-8-10, or Am: x-x-x-14-13-12.
In the final (shuffle) part, just play chords and notes around the 5th and 7th
fret with a little bit of improvisation.
As to the bass part... there are some variations to the progression here and
there, so I tabbed the song in full though it basically consists of verse and
chorus repeated over & over. You will find the song is quite syncopated, and
maybe not all the notes are in the right place. It s not 100% correct but it s
the best I could do.

That s it; any comments, improvements... *
Check out my Thin Lizzy s "Whiskey in the jar" transcription! Don t know where
you may find it... I posted it a few weeks ago at Freshtabs but I ain t seen it
yet on any tabs site.
