Chord Gitar dan Lirik Lagu You to Thank Oleh Ben Folds

“You To Thank”
Ben Folds
Songs For Silverman

This song, naturally, is for piano. I’ve tabbed it out for guitar with the aim of making
it sound as correct as possible while still being technically feasible for a solo player

Intro:

These are just arpeggiated chords way up the fretboard.

Verse:

By the time the buzz was wearing off

We were standing out on the sidewalk

With our tattoos that looked like rings

In the hot Nevada sun

Verse 2

Gifts piled high and our moms and dads shook hands
And our party of polaroid friends
Rented a pool and hired a band

Bridge
Maybe they knew more than we knew

Cause they danced and drank while we jumped off the deep end

Chorus:

In order to have the root notes make any melodic sense, play at least the first two
chords from each line only on the high 4 strings (D G B e). If this part is too complex,
you can simplify it by ignoring the altered root notes and just playing standard chords

Oh I’ve got you [F/A]

To t[C/E]hank [C/Bb]

For this [F/A]

[C/E] [C/D]

Christmas came around
Yeah and everything was going to crp
For moms and dads, not a clue to be had
Yeah we put on a pretty good act

And they seemed to all need to believe it
So we danced and drank and paddled hard Beneath it

Oh I’ve got you
To thank
For this

You can’t say you’ve ne-ver had a doubt

and smoked it down but really wanted out

Play chorus sans lyrics.

Then there’s a solo. I found one transcription that claims its F Bb C A played 4 times.
This sounds wrong to me, but whatever. If anyone feels inspired to figure out something
here, more power to you. I’m moving on.

By the time the buzz was wearing off
We were standing out on the sidewalk
With our tattoos that looked like rings
In the hot Nevada sun

And they won’t fade

Chorus
