William It Was Really Nothing - The Smiths There are many layers of guitar in this song. These are the ones I think you need to know if you want to play it with one guitar. It's almost impossible to correctly tab out by ear every single note in a Smiths song, but this is my best guess. Capo on 2 or tune up a whole step (F#-B-E-A-C#-F#) Intro (repeat x2) F#-5----5--5--5-------7----7----7--7--------7----7--7--7--10---8----------| C#-6----6--6--6-------8----8----8--8--------8----8--8--8--8---10----------| A--5----5--5--5-------7----7----7--7--------9----9--9--9--9----9----------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#------------------------------------------------------------------------| F#-7----5--5--------5------------------------7----------------5-----------| C#-8----5--5--------5------------------------8----------------5-----------| A--7----5--5--------5------------------------9----------------5-----------| E-------------------3------------------------9----------------7-----------| B--------------------------------------------7----------------7-----------| F#-------------------------------------------7----------------5-----------| Feel free to add more rhythm to the chords, I just added the bare essentials.
