#Exit Flagger
#from the Guided by Voices album Propellor
#
#Tabbed by Michael Davidson
#
#This one's really easy. First of all, here are the chords. (All barre,
#but it sounds much better if you don't play the high e string on the
#e-shaped ones. Listen to the song; they keep it pretty low.)
#
[A]B [-]- [577655]x2444x
D - x5777x
Db - x4666x
[G] [-] [355433] The single-note riff (spelled with lowercase) is

A-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2-----------------------------------------------
E-----------------------3-3-3-3---------------------------------------

The main chord RIFF (uppercase) is the same thing, but with barre
chords. (That is, D Db B G)

I don't know where I've come from I don't know where I'm off to

I need to find a way out I need you to help me find it

A G
I'm not going to race you today

I need a life of sameness I don't compete in anything
riff riff
I promise to leave you one of these days I promise to leave real soon

[D]I promise to leave you[G] x4
Then through the solo it's just the RIFF four times,
an A, a G, and the riff eight times.
Instead of A then G, you can play A (x0222x), B, Db, D instead which
follows the bass line instead of the guitar. (You can play the A that
way anytime, but I think it's easier to slide to the G if you go ahead
and play it on the fifth fret.)
