			     ICKY QUALMS - Cardiacs
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: The Mop?
From the album "Toy World" and "Special Garage Concerts Vol 2"

A really old Cardiacs tune, I worked this out using the Garage Concerts
version.

Main Riff

There is also another guitar playing another lead part over
this end section of the above;
   E (022100@1)        F (133211@1)    G (320003@1) A (x02220@1)B (x2444x@1)name="chord_x43121@1">C#

Uh-oh, icky qualms!


Verse (chords implied by bass)

C#I'm (x43121@1)getting of sick of just sitting around
                        G# (xx1114@1)    D#If (x43121@3)you think that might keep me safe and sound

You wrap me up and you keep me warm
                      A# (x1333x@1)      FAre (133211@1)you thinking I've just been FUCKING BORN!

The second verse has this lead part;
  C# (x43121@1)name="chord_xx1114@1">G# D# (x43121@3) A# (x1333x@1)Fe--9----11-------------| (133211@1)B-----9------11--------|

E----------------------|

And the singing is really sketchy;

C#I (x43121@1)realise that was quite some time ago
         G# (xx1114@1)       D#I'm (x43121@3)about to be set free

I tell them I'm a man, but they don't believe me
                      A# (x1333x@1)          FAnd (133211@1)I tell them I'm a man, but they don't believe me

   G (320003@1) A# (x1333x@1)name="chord_133211@1">F      B (x2444x@1)name="chord_244322@1">F#

AMum's (x02220@1)the same

Dad's the same
     G (320003@1)        CThey (x32010@1)think it's obscene
        EOh (022100@1)God!

  AI (x02220@1)tell them I'm a man but they don't believe me

I tell them I'm a man but they don't believe me

I tell them I'm a man but they don't believe me
       G (320003@1)                   CBut (x32010@1)if I'm still here in the morning

Then theres the E chords and the main riff, then a final short verse;

    C#The (x43121@1)band have formed

I don't know what I want
                  G#The (xx1114@1)band come and get me
        D#So (x43121@3)they know that I'm awake then

As far as I'm concerned, that's a load of bull
                           A# (x1333x@1)       FI (133211@1)know I'm available all I need is to call
       G (320003@1)                   CBut (x32010@1)if I'm still here in the morning

Enjoy the craziness :)
