Song: Gives You Hell Artist: All American Rejects Tabber: Dirk Lance (karodgers2@bsu.edu) EDIT: I'd like to give credit to chris_james for the mini solo part of the tab. That's where I got the positioning/fretting idea and went from there. There are some pretty good tabs out there, in fact I want to give credit to anyone who already submitted tabs on UG, I took a little from each. But I wanted to put the missing parts in to try to make a complete tab. So basically, most is a re-interpretation of others' tabs, but the new parts are completely by me and my ear. I know not all instruments are guitar on this song, but this tab is meant to transcribe all parts into guitar parts. AAR are a two guitar band so second guitar parts will be noted. Intro/Verse 1 e|-------------------------------| b|-------------------------------| g|-----9------6-----6-----6------| d|-------------------------------| A|--7-7----4-4-------------------| E|---------------5-5---5-5-------| Second Guitar/Piano occurs at 0:33, 0:43, and 0:52. e|---------------------------| b|---------------------------| g|---------------------------| d|---------------------------| A|---------------------------| E|--5--4--2------------------| Bridge: These are the chords I use. You can mess around with how you break them up/arpeggiate them, but this is the basic gist. e|--7--------7-----------------| b|--7---9----7---5-------------| g|--8---9----8---6-------------| d|--9---9----9---5-------------| A|--9---7----9---7-------------| E|--7--------7---5-------------| Chorus: (x3) 1st Chorus ending only: e|---------------------------|---------------------|----------| b|---------------------------|---------------------|----------| g|--9-9----------------------|--9-9----------------|----------| d|--9-9--11-11--7-7--7-7-----|--9-9--9-9--7-7--7-7-|--x-7\6---| A|--7-7--11-11--7-7--7-7-----|--7-7--9-9--7-7--7-7-|--x-7\6---| E|--------9--9--5-5--5-5-----|-------7-7--5-5--5-5-|--x-5\4---| Note: I've seen the music video and live footage and this is not the way they play the chorus chords. But they are still the same chords, and I like this way better. If you want to play it "accurately," shift the chords down to a lower part of the neck. Mini-solo: 2nd Piano/Guitar plays Verse 1 underneath. e|----------------------------------------------------------------| b|--12b14r12-9-10p9-----------12b14r12-9-10p9----12~--12/14-12----| g|------------------11-----------------------11-------------------| d|---------------------10b11--------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------------------| Verse 2: e|-------------------------------------------| b|---------9---------10---------9---------7--| g|-----9---------9----------9---------9------| d|---9---9-----9---9------9---9-----9---9----| A|-------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------| REPEAT BRIDGE!

Find out what sounds right to you. I've added vocal cues to help. Now... ...you...me ...take...no...me e|------------------------------------------| b|---9--------10---9------------------------| g|---9--------9----9------8------8--9-------| d|---9--------9----9------9------9--9-------| A|---7--------7----7------9------7--7-------| E|------------------------7-----------------| Here's...look...eyes... sad,sad... e|------------------------------------------| b|----9------10-----9-----------------------| g|----9-------9-----9----------8-8-8-8------| d|----9-------9-----9----------9-9-9-9------| A|----7-------7-----7----------9-9-9-9------| E|-----------------------------7-7-7-7------| . . . . PM until drums/vocal breakdown. Second Bridge, Lead Guitar: This was the hardest part for me to find out, but I think I have it. This is what sets my tab apart from the others, no one has tabbed this yet. Comes in at 2:29. e|--16p12----12-(x4)--19p12----12-(x4)--17p12----12-(x4)--14~--------| b|--------14----------------14----------------14---------------------| g|-------------------------------------------------------------------| d|-------------------------------------------------------------------| A|-------------------------------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------------------------------| I contemplated tabbing this as tapping, as there are a few ways to do this, but I went with arpeggios. Do it however you like, as long as it sounds right. This is my way. Last Chorus: Very different! Listen closely. e|--------------------------------------------| b|--------------------------------------------| g|--9-9--9-9----------------------------------| d|--9-9--9-9--7-7--7-7--11-11--9-9--2-2--2-2--| (x2) A|--7-7--7-7--7-7--7-7--11-11--9-9--2-2--2-2--| E|------------5-5--5-5---9--9--7-7--0-0--0-0--| Outro Chorus rhythm: e|------------------------------------------------| b|------------------------------------------------| g|------------------------------------------------| d|--11-11--9-9--2-2--2-2--11-11-11-11-9-9-9-9-----| A|--11-11--9-9--2-2--2-2--11-11-11-11-9-9-9-9-----| E|---9--9--7-7--0-0--0-0---9--9--9--9-7-7-7-7-----| Lead comes that comes in at 3:10 over Last Chorus: e|------------------------------------------------------------------| b|------------------------------------------------------------------| g|--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-----| d|--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-----| A|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-----| E|------------------------------------------------------------------| e|-----------------------------------------------------| b|-----------------------------------------------------| g|--9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---9-9-9-9-8-8-8-8--| d|--x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x---x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x--| A|--7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7-6-6-6-6--| E|-----------------------------------------------------|
