                        The Biggest Lie - Elliott Smith
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Tabbed by: Yoshima
Email: derby@fsmail.net
 
Tuning: DGCFAD - This is a whole step down on each string. This is the way
                 Elliott plays, however it can be played in standard as long
                 as you can sing that high. I personally play it in standard
                 with a capo on the 6th or 7th so I can sing it lower.
 
I've tabbbed as much detail as necessary, the vital structure is here but
I've obviously left out any slight variations and unimportant fill-in notes
as it would just get messy. It's easy to add the extra fill-in notes once
you've got the main rhythm and structure down.

The chords below are a mixture of strumming and fingerpicking,
The rhythm is more important than which strings are strummed/picked.

         make      everybody late
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The above guitar section is used for the first two verses...
 
Here are the chords if you just want to strum...
 
G                   Em      C
I'm waiting for the train
       D/F#          G        Em      C
the subway that only goes one way
           D              C                E Esus4 E
the stupid thing that will come to pull us apart
C      D/F#          G
and make everybody late
 
    G                    Em     C
you spent everything you had
       D/F#          G         Em     C
wanted everything to stop that bad
              D              C                  E Esus4 E
and now I'm a crushed credit card registered to Smith
C       D/F#                   G
not the name that you call me with
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
[Interlude]
Second guitar enters whilst the first guitar plays the verse part in the background.

D|-----------------------------------------------------------------|
 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The guitar part for the next verse starts off the same as the first two, again
the chords are strummed and fingerpicked.
 
G                       Em        C
you turned white like a saint
             D/F#         G                  Em        C
I'm tired of dancing on a pot of gold flaked paint
         D       C                 E Esus4 E
oh we're so very precious, you and I
 
The song then differs from the previous verses...
 
C        D               C                   E Esus4 E
and everything that you do makes me want to die
C/G     D/F#                C  D     C    E Esus4 E
oh I just told the biggest lie
C/G     D/F#             C  D     C    E Esus4 E
I just told the biggest lie
C/G    D/F#        C  D      C    E Esus4 E
           the biggest lie
C/G    D/F#    G
 
That's about it, just add some fill-in notes and hammer-ons and it will sound near perfect.

Nothing Is Real
The line where he sings "and everything that you do makes me want to die" you put a G chord at the word "die" when I'm pretty sure it's an E chord. Just pointing it out otherwise excellent.

It says at the top the tuning is EADGBE but on the tab it is DADGBE. So which is it?
