WOMEN SEEM
JOHN COUGAR MELLENCAMP
Tabbed by Jim Bauer (
[email protected])
NOTE: When I did this tab I didn t have time to figure
out the riff that follows under the rythm, nor the riff
after the verse tacet. I ll post it as soon as I can in
a corrected version, unless someone beats me to it, of
course. :)
intro: x2
verse:
Women seem to like me
They seem to like what I have to say
When they see me out in public
Women seem to look my way
Women seem to treat me so gracious
They sing me to sleep with a song
But there always seems to be a problem
Women don t seem to like me long
:| intro, sing over Yeah, yeah, yeah
verse:
Women seem to want me
To stay with them all night
We have so much in common
Our futures really do seem bright
Women seem to forgive me
They seem to become my very good friends
But when it comes time for a commitment
The romance always seems to end
chorus1:
They tell me all their stories
We lay awake and talk all night
Maybe it s me I don t know
But in the morning there always seems to be some kind of fight
bridge:
La la la la, la la la la la x2
verse:
Well women seem to be so clever
I love all the jokes that they tell
Like my last boyfriend really hurt me in bed
E (tacet) riff2
Hey but you seem to fit so well
Women sure can hurt your feelings
They can burn you down and not make a sound
And then they call me up and say hey come over
My husband has just left town
chorus2:
They tell me all their stories
We lay awake and laugh all night
Maybe it s me I don t know
But in the morning there always seems to be some kind of fight
verse:
Women seem to love houses
I ve bought a couple for one or two
Women seem to think all men are louses
And I guess I think so too
Women seem so much smarter
Than your average Joe
(tacet)*
Women seem to be a little more intuitive
* (w/violin part)
And when they lie nobody knows
verse: (play riff1 alone)
Well women seem to know how to keep a secret
They don t blabbermouth just for show
Fifty percent of their charm is illusion
And that is a good thing to know
verse: (play normally)
Women seem to like me
They seem to like what I have to say
And when they see me out in public
Women seem to look my way
x4
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, women seem to like me
They seem to like what I have to say
OUTRO:
La la la la, la la la la la x2
