Special Tab

Artist: Garbage
Written and recorded by Garbage
Tabbed here by Jon Dailey (jon_dailey@hotmail.com) Dec 2010
 
I still love this song so I decided to tab it YEARS after it was a hit.
I've seen fairly accurate versions that are tuned down a half step, but
my version uses standard tuning and a capo.
 
CAPO FIRST FRET

All tab and chords are relative to the capo, otherwise you are in the wrong key!

Verse
 
D                            Bmin
I (I - I - I - I'm)  Living without you
 
D                            Bmin
I (I - I - I - I)  Know all about you
 
Em                           A
I have run you down into the ground
 
Em                            A
Spread disease about you over town
 
 
D                           Bmin
I (I - I - I - I)  Used to adore you
 
 
D                            Bmin
I (I - I - I - I)  Couldn't control you
 
 
Em                                A
There was nothin' that I wouldn't do
 
 
Em                                 A
To keep myself around and close to you    Do you have
 
 
 
 
Chorus
 
   Em/G                       A
an opinion    a mind of your own    I thought you were
 
   Em/G                             A
special       I thought you should know   But I've run out of
 
  Em       G        A/C#         A
patience        I couldn't care less
 
Guitar part during chorus
e-----------2--0----------2--0---------0---2--0------0---2--0---|
b-------0-------------0--------------0-------------0------------|
g-----0-------------0--------------2-------------2--------------|
d---2-------------2---------------------------------------------| 2x
a---------------------------------------------------------------|
e---------------------------------------------------------------|
 
During the last line beginning with the word "patience" listen
closely and you can hear the intro being played again.
 
 
 
The following break uses D and Bmin, but the band cuts out during the D and
it is vocals only (great vocal harmony overdubs here btw.)
 
 
Chorus
 
 
The next verse is different, the first part has only this guitar part:
 
 
e-----------0---------2---|
b---------------------3---|
g------1--2----1--2---4---|
d--4------------------4---|
a---------------------2---|
e-------------------------|
 
 
e-----------0------------|
b------------------------|
g------1--2----1--2--1---|
d--4---------------------|
a------------------------|
e------------------------|
 
Then the remainder of the verse as before with Em and A
 
Final Chorus and outro
