Tabbed by: Kent
Great tune off "Turn It Out", an amazing album I assume everyone has.
There's a little kanoodling going on here, this is a pretty good tab though.

here are the quick lead in chords into the next part:
[E7add9](quick) ([G13]hold)
e|------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------10--7--5----7--5--------10--7--5----7-5--------|
G|-6-----11--9--6----7--5--6-----11--9--6----7-4--------|

A|-7-----10--9--5----7--5--7-----10--9--5----7-x--------|
E|-5-----------------------5-------------------3--------|
these are the names of the above chords for the second half of he song:
A7 Gmaj7add9 f#m7 Dmaj7add9 em7add9 D7add9
A7 Gmaj7add9 f#m7 Dmaj7add9 E7add9 G13
I'm not so sure about the f#m7 here. when you play it in the voicing indicated
above it sounds ok...who knows? if anyone knows the real chords, let me know,
even though you have no way to reach me. actually i'm not 100% on a couple of
the chords here, it's fun to play though.
4:19
second half theme:
play over the above chords
e|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------9-11-9\--9-----------------------------|
D|---7-9-9/11-11\9v---9---7vv--------9/11----11\--9---7vv-----------------------|
A|-/9---------------(9)-(9)--------------------(/9)-(9)-------------------------|
E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
between those parts, can throw in a little fill
(quiet one he does first time around:)
D|----7----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-7/9-9v--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
play it twice, then twice with the keys. when playing with the keys the guitarist throws
in the E7add9 and G13 at the end as well.
more solos and such....
6:40
second half theme X2
then hold the G13 for a bit
end on two quick A7's
cool.
