---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fell in Love with a Girl - The White Stripes ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Burpin'Worm My first tab, hope you like...... Standard Tuning: EADGBE Chords: EADGBE ------ B x2444x Play with barred 3rd finger it's easiest A x0222x Jack plays with a barre and doesn't play high E D xx0232 E 0221xx Sounds more like record if you don't play 1st and 2nd strings F# 2443xx Likewise Intro: Watch out when playing the D. If you listen to the record the pitch drops earlier than the previous chords, but it'll sound fine if you play D 5 times then let go. B A D E e|--------------------------------------2---2-2---2------------------------| B|--4---4-4---4-4-----2---2-2---2-2-----3---3-3---3-0-0--------------------| G|--4---4-4---4-4-0---2---2-2---2-2-0---2---2-2---2-0-0---1---1-1---1-1----| D|--4---4-4---4-4-0---2---2-2---2-2-0---0---0-0---0-0-0---2---2-2---2-2-0--| A|--2---2-2---2-2-0---0---0-0---0-0-0---------------------2---2-2---2-2-0--| E|--------------------------------------------------------0---0-0---0-0-0--| The intro is played once, then on the second time through Jack starts singing on the second/third strike of the B Chord. Exactly the same rythym. B A Fell in love with a girl A D E B I fell in love once and almost completely B A She's in love with the world A D But sometimes these feelings E Can be so misleading After the E has finished the B is replaced by F#, same rythym etc. just that change. For the G|--0- bit at end of the F# play G|---- D|--0- D|--0- A|--0- A|--0- E|---- E|--0- F# A She turns and says are you alright? A D E I said I must be fine cause my heart's still beating F# A Come and kiss me by the riverside, yeah F# Single strike of the chord then let it fade to end of line.... Bobby says it's fine he don't consider it cheating now B A Red hair with a curl A D E Mellow roll for the flavor and the eyes for peeping B A Can't keep away from the girl A E These two sides of my brain need to have a meeting (I've got a friend says he's heard Jack sing it: I see stars in my brain, need a hallowed meeting, but the record sings it: These two sides....) F# A Can't think of anything to do, yeah A D E My left brain knows that all love is fleeting F# A She's just looking for something new, yeah F# again single strike and fade.......... I said it once before but it bears repeating now (Where he sings 'all love is' it might be 'our love', make up your own minds) Back to B A D E It's repeated twice with Ah ahhhaa ahhhhhh aaah etc. sung over, you'll have to listen to the record to get that right, I can't tab ahhhs. F# A Can't think of anything to do, yeah A D E My left brain knows that all love is fleeting F# A She's just looking for something new, yeah F# again single strike and fade.......... I said it once before but it bears repeating now B A Fell in love with a girl A D E B I fell in love once and almost completely B A She's in love with the world A D But sometimes these feelings E Can be so misleading F# A She turns and says are you alright?

I said it once before but it bears repeating now To get a White stripes sound use an electric with humbuckers if possible (Jack plays an old airline) bridge pickup, gain arond 7 to 7.5, treble 7, mid 5.5 and bass 8. This is one of my fave songs and is soooo easy to play, I think this tab's pretty good so please rate it or post a comment it took me ages.
