Play this twice, then twice again but with the following guitar overdub
(bang a bit of reverse reverb on it if you can)
F#m7 F#m6 F#m b6 F#m F#m6
E|----|----|-----|----------------|
B|--5-|--4-|--3--|-2h3p2h3-2h3h4--|
G|----|----|-----|----------------|
D|----|----|-----|----------------|

Now the organ riff changes, play this once:
F#m Gm F#m Em
E|----------------------------|----------------------------|
B|----------------------------|----------------------------|
G|--2-2---2-2---2-2---2-2--3--|--2-2---2-2---2-2---2-2--O--|

E|--2-2---2-2---2-2---2-2--3--|--2-2---2-2---2-2---2-2--O--|
Keep this last riff going through the first verse:
F#m Gm
Most of the time you are happy,
F#m Em
You're a weirdo.
F#m Gm
And before the introduction ends
F#m Em
There's someone feeling sorry for their selves.
Chorus
(Here's where you stomp on your tremolo pedal- Hit each chord once
and hold)
Dm
Look at your ugly shame,
G
What are you talking for?
Dm G
Look at your ugly shame.
It's back to the original organ riff for the second verse:
F#m7 F#m6
Most of the time you're demanding,
Fm# b6 F#m F#m6
What am I doing here, and I don't want to be.
F#m7 F#m6
And the hurt in which you bare
Fm# b6 F#m F#m6
You could say goodbye to this earth.
Chorus
Dm
Look at your ugly shame,
G
What are you talking for?
Dm
Look at your ugly shame.
G
There's too much for me to know about.
Instrumental
After a bar of percussion there's a bass solo. It's something vaguley
like this:
G|------------------------|
D|--4-4---4---4---4--2-2--|
A|------4---4---4---------| x3
E|------------------------|
Guitar Solo
E|----------|----2-----|--2-2--------------|
B|-------5--|--5----2--|--2-2--2-----------|
G|----2-----|----------|-------2------2----|
D|--2-------|----------|---------2-4----4--|
A|----------|----------|-------------------|
E|----------|----------|-------------------|
Now with the 1st organ riff underneath:
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/c/charlatans/22167.html ]
F#m7 F#m6 F#m b6
E|------7------7---5---|------7------7---5---|--7--9--7--9-7-----|
B|--5h7----5h7---7---7-|--5h7----5h7---7---7-|---------------10--|
G|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------|
D|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------|
A|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------|
E|---------------------|---------------------|-------------------|
F#m
E|------7------7-----|----2\---|
B|--5h7----5h7-------|----2\---|
G|-------------------|----2\---|
D|-------------------|---------|
A|-------------------|-4-------|
E|-------------------|-2-------|
There's a half-bar of weird Delay-feedback effects- you could just
scrape your plectrum up and down the strings.
Verse 3
F#m7 F#m6
Most of the time you are happy,
Fm# b6 F#m F#m6
You're a weirdo.
F#m7 F#m6
And your nerve is my device,
Fm# b6 F#m F#m6
And it makes me sad.
Chorus
Dm
Look at your ugly shame,
G
What are you talking for?
Dm
Look at your ugly shame.
G
There's too much for me to know about.
Two bars of drums then another bass solo:
G|-------------------|
D|-------------------|
A|----O-O-2--O-2-4-2-| x4
E|--2----------------|
Repeat Hammond Organ Riff 1, twice. Then it's:
Dm C
E|-----------------------------|
B|--6-6-X-6-6-X-6-6-X-5-5-5-5--|
G|--7-7-X-7-7-X-7-7-X-5-5-5-5--|
D|--7-7-X-7-7-X-7-7-X-5-5-5-5--| x2
A|--5-5-X-5-5-X-5-5-X-5-5-5-5--|
E|-----------------------------|
Now it's the outro solo played on some kind of organ-slash-synth. It's
probabaly a bit sloppy but it'll give you an idea. It's played over the
first organ riff again.
