Subject: TAB: Promise by the Violent Femmes

Here's Promise by the Violent Femmes from the album Violent Femmes (good name
guys). I don't know the names of power chords so I'll just tab them! Here goes:

Main Riff:
	 -------5-3-----------------
	 --4-4--5-3-3-3-3--3-3-3-3/4
	 --4-4--3-1-3-3-3--3-3-3-3/4
	E--2-2------1-1-1--1-1-1-1/2 (the 224 chord there is the slide right
into the repeat of the riff, just repeat the riff during the verses)

then
 --		-5	   -3
 -5		-5	   -3
 -5		-3	   -1
E-3		--	   --	
could you ever want me to love you? could you ever want me to care?


 -that part I'm a bit iffy on but it's close. Obviouslyyou hit each of those
chords more than once -listen to the song!

that should do it! Send love letters, hate mail, & useless Femmes info to
