• Song:

    I-95

  • Artist:

    Fountains of Wayne

  • Album:

    Traffic and Weather

Tabbing this song means a lot to me for a few reasons:

1.  Fountains of Wayne opened for the Smashing Pumpkins at my first live rock concert 
when I was 14.  I have loved them both since then.
2.  This is my first tab.  (As the album was released this month, I'd say its quite an accomplishment.
3.  I believe this is one of FOW's best songs to date.

        Cjust (x32010@1)to see you.

The second verse follows the same pattern (C, Em, Dm, G) until he mentions the line,

"From then on that's all I see"

the chords played during the guitar solo have not magically come to me the same way the 
of the song has.

The final chorus is played in the same manner ending on "C"

send me your thoughts or suggestions in any means you like.

NOAH
