"That Thing You Do!"
by The Wonders
Words and Music by Adam Schlesinger
from the 1996 Playtone-Epic Records soundtrack "That Thing You Do!"
transcribed by: Ryan Swartz (used39@hotmail.com)

What's the deal?  Just because a band isn't real doesn't mean that 
nobody will want to learn to play their songs (see also: The Monkees)! 
So, as a service to all Tom Hanks fans who double as guitar 
afficionados, here it is:

"That Thing You Do!"

VERSE 1
E
You
A          B         E  
doin' that thing you do
A           B
breakin' my heart in-
C#m          F#
to a million pieces
F#m             Am B7
like you always do-oo
    E 
and you
A          B     E
don't mean to be cruel
    A     B
you never even
C#m            F#
knew about the heartache
D               B
I've been going through
        C#m      
Well, I try and try
      F#
to forget you girl
         E       E7      A
but it's just so hard to do
E                 Am             E     B7
every time you do that thing you do


VERSE 2 (same chords as V1)
I
know all the games you play
and I'm gonna find a
way to make you know that
you'll be mine some day
'Cause we
could be happy, can't you see
if you'd only let me
be the one to hold you
and keep you here with me
'Cause I try and try to
forget you girl
but it's just so hard to do
every time you do that thing you do


BRIDGE:
A5
I don't ask a lot girl
      C#5
But I know one thing's for sure
         F#5
It's the love I haven't got, girl
      B                  C 
and I just can't take it anymore
B7
WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

VERSE 3/OUTRO:
       E
'Cause we
         A     B         E
could be happy can't you see
         A    B
if you'd only let me
C#m           F#
be the one to hold you
    D                  B
and keep you here with me
          C#m
'Cause it hurts me so
        F#
just to see you go
 E          E7      A  Am 
around with someone new
       E                 Am
and if I know you you're doing that thing
E              Am
every day just doing that thing
E                B7                   A  Am
I can't take you doing that thing you do-oo

It looks like a lot of chords, but it's a surprisingly easy song to 
play.  I think this is the most accurate tab I've written yet 
(considering this is my third one), but if there are any 
questions/comments/suggestions, y'know, the usual BS, e-mail me at
used39@hotmail.com

I'll post the solo soon!
