Notes: This is a tab for Sick and Sad off of Toh Kays Streetlight Lullabies. This is my
first tab, but I think I got it very close to how Tomas plays it. Heres a few tips
that may help. This is a finger picking song so dont use a pick. Play the individual
notes with your thumb, index and middle fingers. For chords always strum down and then quickly
back up using your index finger. Listen to the song to get the rhythm. Once you learn
the finger picking pattern, apply all the tabbed out sections to lyrics with the chords
below. Be sure to check out my cover on youtube! Feel free to email me if you have any
questions at stefa.ellenberger001@gmail.com http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnEM3gwXYT8

Went to the corner of second and main

but there was someone there who mentioned
F C G
that they hoped it would rain forever, forever,
F C
so they could drown in peace.
C Em
Went down to the Hodskin P.L.
Am
But there was nobody to answer
F C G
when I rang the doorbell forever, forever.
F C
So now I'm sad all the time.

C Em
Today was the day but she threw it all away
Am
and I could never understand
F C G
'cause she was never one to play by the rules of the game
F C
her and me we're so the same.
C Em
I try so hard and I never give in,
Am F
and I am never going do, so pack it up, pack it in,

So there, but I don't care,
G F
I can fade away to anywhere don't stop,
C
because you might get dropped
