IT'S A METAPHOR FOOL – Say Anything
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Murasaki
Email: orenmurasaki@gmail.com
Misc. Notes:
-This is the same as the first version + verse I and the chorus with more detailed tabbing.
In the song, there are three distinct guitars that I can recognize, one with a clean sound
for the intro, and two distorted ones
for the rest of the song. The parts for multiple guitars that occur at the same
time are tabbed one on top of the other, such as the very first two bars of this tab
for Guitar I and Guitar II.
-Tab any Say Anything stuff that's wrong or not here and feel free to make suggestions,
this can be a tricky band to tab for I think.
This is a good band and they don't have enough accurate tabs up IMO.
