Subject: TAB: James "Laid"

(Let me throw in a quickie request for tab to 'five-o' and 'heavens' by james
and nirvana's 'lounge act' to anybody who might just know a place to start....)

Hiya.  I've just heard a live nonplugged version of 'laid' (off the 'say
something' cd single) and here's my best guess....

Chord Formations:  (Wow, only THREE chords!)
C	x 3 2 0 1 0		C/F	x 3 3 0 1 0
G	3 2 0 0 3 3

	(Plugless version)

INTRO: Main riff three times, then Chorus riff once.

Same for verses, main riff 3 times, then chorus:

C        C/F   C    G
This bed is on fire with passion and love
C        C/F     C        G
The neighbors complain about the noises above
C      C/F   C      G
But she only comes when she's on top

My therapist said not to see you no more

Caught your hand inside the till
C            C/F   C          G
Slammed your fingers in the door
C            C/F   C          G
Bought the kitchen knives and skewers
C            C/F   C          G

C            C/F   C          G
Messed around with gender roles
C            C/F   C          G

C            G            <- Chorus riff

C            C/F   C          G
Moved out of the house so you moved next door
C            C/F   C          G
I locked you out you cut a hole in the wall
C            C/F   C          G
I found you sleeping next to me I thought I was alone
C            G            <- Chorus riff

C            C/F   C          G

C            C/F   C          G
			when are you
C            C/F   C          G
coming home		when are you
C            G            <- Chorus riff
coming home
C            C/F   C          G
Laid
C            C/F   C          G
Laid

0---0---0---0---0----0--0----|
