Crash Into Me
by Dave Matthews



Finger Positions:

e:      0
B:      5*   (pinky finger)
G:      4*   (ring finger)
D:      2    (pointer finger)
A:      4    (middle finger)
E:      0

* - these strings/fingers stay where they are the entire song
(except where Dave says, "Crash Into Me"); the middle finger
and pointer finger will be the ones to move during the song.
The middle finger will only be on the fourth fret of the=20
strings, and the pointer finger will only be on the second
fret of the strings.  It is fairly simple to figure out.


Part I:
The majority of the song goes like this

e:------0-0-0-----------0-0-0-------------0-0-0-----------
B:------5-5-5-----------5-5-5-------------5-5-5-----------
G:------4-4-4-----------4-4-4-------------4-4-4-----------
D:------2-2-2-----------0-0-0-------------2-2-2-----------
A:-4----4-4-4---0---2---2-2-2-------------0-0-0---0---2---
E:------------------------------0----4--------------------

e:--0-0-0------
B:--5-5-5------
G:--4-4-4------         (Repeat a LOT of times)
D:--0-0-0------
A:--2-2-2------
E------------0-




Part II:
e:--------------------------------------------3*----------  * - Not totally
B:--------------------------------------------2-----------      necessary
G:--------------------------------------------3-----------      to play.
D:------------------------2-------------------0-----------
A:------------------------2-------------------------------

   "Crash,   in to me     yeah...            baby,

e:----------------------0-0-0---
B:----------------------5-5-5---
G:----------------------4-4-4---...........Start it back up again
D:----------------------2-2-2---
A:-----------------4----4-4-4---
E:------------------------------
  and I come into...



Part III:
e +--0-0-2-0-0-0-2-|-0-0-0-4-0-0-0-2--|=20
B +--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--|   =20
G +--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4--|=20
D +----------------|------------------|
A +----------------|------------------|
E +----------------|------------------|
  "In a boy's dream"




Part I is used in all verses and whenever Dave is not singing.
Part II is used when Dave begins the "Crash into me" thing.
Part III is used when Dave begins to rant about a boy's dream.


That's all.  Not a hard song, once you can get your fingers to stretch out.
Have fun playing this song....correctly.  Peace.
