                SIMON SIMONE ??" Mike Gent / The Figgs
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
From: The Figgs double-CD PALAIS, SodaPop Records, 2004
Tabbed by:TCurley5

Main Riff is Barre chords:  B D / A / B/ - B D / A / B / (repeats until chorus / Middle 8)
Note: Often MG starts the riff B chord with a m(u)ted upstroke B (chord); also other chords.
And sometimes MG slides chords from A to B or B to D etc.)

INTR0:    B (x2444x@1)   D (xx0232@1)/    A (x02220@1) /    B (x2444x@1)  /    B (x2444x@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D / A/ (x02220@1)B/ (x2444x@1) 
(rhythm: BAH,  Ba-BAH,  Ba-BAH,  Ba-BAH ).
VERSE1:
B (x2444x@1)   D (xx0232@1)/          A (x02220@1) / B (x2444x@1) /   u B (x2444x@1) u D (xx0232@1)/ A/ (x02220@1)u B (x2444x@1)/
Simon Simone didn’t live alone.  He came from Montre-al.
       B (x2444x@1)      D (xx0232@1)  /    A (x02220@1) /   B (x2444x@1) / u B (x2444x@1)       D (xx0232@1) /      A (x02220@1)        
He was into our band, and made a plan, to put us in touch with Nancy 
BRoss. (x2444x@1)
CHORUS:
E (022100@1)                  B (x2444x@1)                C#m (x13321@4)        BSimon (x2444x@1)Simone, he was sitting at home,  we were far a-way
    E (022100@1)                      B (x2444x@1)          C#m (x13321@4)                                             
But he never called, we were on our own;  Simon Simone, Simon Simone: 
        B (x2444x@1)D (xx0232@1)/  A (x02220@1)/  B (x2444x@1)/  - B (x2444x@1)D (xx0232@1)/  A (x02220@1)/  B (x2444x@1)/
Simon Simone.

VERSE 2:
Same Riff & chording as Verse 1.
When we arrived, the crowd was outside.  
The line stretched across the street.
Covered with sweat, squeezing our guitar necks; 
(the) audience began to scream.
Simon Simone was sitting at home, we were far away.
I started to laugh, cause his roommate was stabbed.
Simon Simone, Simon Simone: 
        B (x2444x@1)D (xx0232@1)/  A (x02220@1)/  B (x2444x@1)/  - B (x2444x@1)D (xx0232@1)/  A (x02220@1)/  B (x2444x@1)/
Simon Simone.

MIDDLE 8:
F# (244322@1)            B (x2444x@1)            C#m (x13321@4)                    B (x2444x@1) (Lick)
Oh-h-h!  And we drove,….almost three hundred miles that day.
F# (244322@1)          B (x2444x@1)         C#mOh-h….Here (x13321@4)we go…(to) see Simon Simone Simon Simone:

Simon Simon

VERSE 3:
Same Riff & chording as Verse 1.
Simon Simone, called me at home, 
said he really wanted to play.
He didn’t understand, he couldn’t be in the band;  
he learned the WHOLE set anyway.
Simon Simone, he wasn’t at home,  
still fee(?) for the demand.
But he never called, we were on our own.  
Simon Simone, Simon Simone: Simon !
