Song: Don't Believe A Word
Band: Sloan
Tabbed by: Brent Randall
Email: B_J_R@hotmail.com

G(320033) or (355433)
F(133211)
C(355433) or (x32010)
Am(x02210)
Dm (x57743)

notes: I figured this out orignially on piano, so this is a combination of what
the guitar in the song is doing and what the piano is doing(arranged for guitar).
Some piano parts then I arranged for guitar I changed so it sounded better. I suppose
I should also write some sort of piano tab..but they're pretty similar anyway.

				Don't Believe A Word
			        (J. Fergusson/Sloan)

Riff1: every so often this part is repeated..instead of rewriting it I will
explainit once here. So where ever you read "Riff 1"just play this.
The piano plays a variation of the chords C Dm C Dm, while the guitar plays
a delightful D octave thing. Here they are..(both are played at once...)

----5-7-5-7-

Riff 2: Here is an expanded version of Riff 1 that is played at other times..again
one is the piano arranged for guitar, and one is the guitar..(play both at once..)
