       This is "Say Yes" by Elliott Smith off of the "Good Will Hunting" 

  soundtrack. Check out the chords to "Miss Misery" also if you haven't 

  already. I was planning to tab all of the songs on this album from 

  Elliott Smith. "Angeles" is going to be pretty tough, so be patient. If 

  you listen to the CD you can get the strumming pattern. It's pretty 

  easy. I'll put the basis of it here.

      Lyrics

  

      Verse 1

  

      I'm in love with the world

      Through the eyes of a girl

      Who's still around the morning after

  

      Verse 2

  

      We broke up a month ago

      But I grew up, I didn't know

      You'd be around the morning after

  

           SOLO

  

      Verse 3

  

      It's always been wait and see

      A happy day and then you pay

      You feel like shit the morning after

   

      Verse 4

  

      But now I feel changed around

      And instead of falling down

      I'm standing up the morning after

  

      Bridge (strummed)

     C    D                 G

      Situations get fucked up

                   Em              A7        C

      And turned around sooner ar laaaaaatteeeeeeeeer

  

      Verse 5

  

      I could be another fool

      Or an exception to the rule

      You tell me the morning after

  

      Middle 8 (strummed)

     G(2)       D                  Em(2)

      Crickets spin can't come to rest

          F7             Em(2)

      I'm damaged bad at best

                D             C

      She'll decide what she wants

     G(2)           D               Em(2)

      I'll probably be the last to know

              F7            Em(2)

      No one says until it shows

           D      Em7   

      See how is iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssss

           Em7  Dm7 Dm7  C   C

      They want you or they don't

     D(2)

      Say Yes

  

      Repeat Verse 1

  

  

        SOLO:

     |------------7---7-------|------------------|-------------------|

     |------------------------|------------------|-5h7-8-------------|

     |------------------------|------7-7-7-------|-------------------|

     |------5-7-9---9---9-7---|-9-10-------9-7-5-|-------9-7-5h7-5---|

     |----------------------7-|------------------|-----------------7-|

     |-3-3--------------------|------------------|-------------------|

  

  

       Chords used:

       C:335553                 G(2):355433 

       D:557775                 Em(2):779987

       G:7(10)9787              F7:88(10)8(10)8

       Em:XX0453                Dm7:XX7565

       A7:575655                D(2):(10)(12)(12)(11)(10)(10)

  

      In that part where it goes "sooner or laaaaaaaterrrrr" there's a 

  little fill that goes like this.

  

     |-5--5-----5-----5-----|-3--3-----3------8--7--5--|

     |-5----5-----5-----5---|-5----5-----5-------------|  then just go

     |-6------6-----6-----6-|-5------5-----5-----------|  back to the

     |-5--------------------|-5------------------------|   verse

     |-7--------------------|-3------------------------|   pattern

     |-5--------------------|-3------------------------|

  

  

      the second guitar part in the verse is like this

  

     --|-7v-7---7v-7-|-7v-7---10v-10-|-8v-8---7v-7-|-5v-5---5v-5-|

     --|-------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|

     --|-------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|

     --|-------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|

     --|-------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|

     --|-------------|---------------|-------------|-------------|

  

  

      Where it goes "She'll decide what she wants", it goes

    |--3--8-7-5-3-|

    |--5--------3-|

    |--5--------4-|

    |--5--------5-|

    |--3--------5-|

    |--3--------3-|

  

      And where it goes " iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiisssssss" the second 

  guitar plays this

  

     |-7h8p7h8p7h8p7h8p7h8p7h8p7h8p7h8-|

     |---------------------------------|

     |---------------------------------|

     |---------------------------------|

     |---------------------------------|

     |---------------------------------|

  

            With all these parts it may look complicated, but if you have 

  two guitarists it is incredibally easy. Stay posted for "Between The 

  Bars", "No Name #3", and hopefully "Angeles".
