I Don't Think I'm Ever Gonna Figure It Out
By Elliott Smith
Tabbed by Wraphesh
 
Tuning: Standard
Capo 3rd Fret
 
Alright this piece is pretty but a bit difficult. Play it slow until you get all the
finger picking down and then gradually speed it up to Elliott speed (which is really fast).
One tip I'd give is that the thumb picking stays mostly the same throughout, while most
of the tricky portions are picked with the index finger. If you have any questions or
suggestions e-mail me at wraphesh@yahoo.com

This last part is tricky. The best way to learn it is to practice the bass rhythm (all
picking on the A string and below) and add the top. Also, I prefer to bend the 3rd fret
at the end of the phrase but if you want a cleaner sound you can optionally pick the
open e, although I think this is slightly more difficult. Elliot plays it both ways at
different points in the song.

Almost totally perfect, but I think the part where it goes up to the 6th fret on the top e string should only go up to 5th? Great work otherwise dude.
