Hey, I've seen various tabs of this song. Some of them are
fairly close but some of them are pretty off. I'm in a Ska
band myself and we cover this song...so I think I'll try to
tab it out the right way...
Intro (you can mess around with it if you want)
G:-------------------------------------------------|
D:-------------------------------------------------|
A:------------5---55---76-----------5--567-567-567-|
E:-5---55--57-------------5--55--57----------------|
Then when the Terry goes "Spending Money...On!" play:
G:------------------
D:------------------ * Keep in mind that this is played
A:----5-----6------- after every chorus
E:-77---7-----------
Verse (now the fun starts!) note, there is no bass
during the first verse when Terry is singing...
G:--------------------------|-----------7-7-----|
D:--------------------------|-------------------|
A:-7----------7-----5---5---|-7---------------5-|
E:---0-0--5-7-----7---7---7-|----0-0--------7---|
*** (^) signifies a slide (7th to 10th fret) ***
G:--------------------------|---------------12---11---7---8-
D:--------------------------|-------------------------------
A:-7----------7-----5---5---|-7--------7^10----9----5---6---
E:---0-0--5-7-----7---7---7-|----0-0------------------------
Little fill before the first chorus
G:-------------------
D:-----4---5---6-----
A:-------------------
E:-0-2---3---4-------
Chorus
G:---------------------------|-----------------------------
D:-77--------7------44-55-77-|-77--------7-----------------
A:----9--7-9----5-5----------|----9--7-9----5-5--33-22-00--
E:---------------------------|-----------------------------
*Play first segment again followed by the
"Spending Money...On!" riff
Bass Solo
segment 1 segment 2
G:-------------------------|--------7-77-7-777-|
D:-------------------------|-------------------|
A:-7----------7----5---5---|-7-----------------|
E:---0-0--5-7----7---7---7-|----0-0------------|
segment 3 (slide!) segment 4 (notice the slide)
G:---------12^13--12-13--|--------------------------|
D:---------11-12--11-12--|-------------5----6-------|
A:-7---------------------|-7--------4^6-6--7-75-----|
E:----0-0----------------|----0-0-------------------|
segment 5
G:---7---8---9---10---11---10---9---8--
D:-------------------------------------
A:-5---6---7---8----9----8----7---6----
E:-------------------------------------
Bass Solo segment order: 1,2,1,3,1,4,1,5
* Segment 3 is using chords (Hit 2 notes at one time.)
Then the third verse starts...there's no bass at first...but
when Terry screams "and the beer tasters just like p**s!", he
uses this fill to get back into his bassline...
G:----12---11---7---8----
D:-----------------------
A:-10----9----5---6------
E:-----------------------
Outro
G:--------------
D:--------------
A:----5---6--7--
E:-77---7-------
Well I hope you agree that if this is not perfect, that
it's pretty close. Enjoy...and don't forget the slides
because they're vital.
