Hello all,
        Here is version 1.0 of "New Boy" off of the "New Boy" lp Track
6, I
decided to tab this version because of the acoustic guitar being easier
to tab out than electric.
 
        If you don't wish to recieve these tabs as a part of The
Connells
mailing list, please let me know and If there are enough people  who
feel that these tabs are inconveniencing them I will work something else
out.
        I have toyed with the Idea of tabbing a whole album before
posting,
then posting the album instead of each tab, let me know if this may be
easier.
 
        As usual this probably isn't 100% correct but I feel it's close,
any
suggestions/corrections/help questions/flames are welcome. Let me know
what you think.
 
Thanks,
Tyson

Lyrics:
 
New Boy (M. Connell)
 
Sometimes I get the feeling things won't fall apart.
Sometimes I think it's gone too far.
Sometimes I get the feeling things seem pretty nice.
Then again sometimes I'd like to leave you twice.
 
Once we decide upon it
We won't fall apart.
This time I think it's gone too far.
 
And you get where you can't decide--
Don't ask any other.
And you get where you can't decide.
 
Didn't I say "sorry."
Didn't I say "dear."
Didn't I consider.
Didn't I stand clear.
Didn't you say "New boy get down on your knees."
Didn't I say "trying, I'm trying, I'm trying."
 
 
Guitar 2:
        This is mainly the riffs over guitar 1, and some inverted chords to
play over Guitar 1 if you and a buddy wanta Jam.
/=slide up, \=slide down,
^=pull off/hammer-on
 
 
Intro riff:
all riffs during verse etc, on these notes.
 
e-5^7-7/9\7-5-4--5-4--------------------------------
B--------------5----5--------------------------------
G---------------------6-7/9\7-6------------6^7^6^7^6-
D-------------------------------7--------------------
A---------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------
 
The rest of the riffs are on these 4 chord inversions,
just goof around with suspending these and the riffs will come out. Also
when you arn't ripping just overlap these onto the rhythem guitar and
it'll sound hot.
