Here's my stab at "My Favorite Kiss". I don't have SMYT, so I'm taking this from the acoustic version from the Gideon Coe show, which you can hear here:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/artists/pixies.shtml
C#m B
My favorite kiss
C#m B
Just when her mouth is warm
F# C#m B
Yes that's definitely my favorite one
C#m B
Earth be torn
C#m B
Let out the fabled twist
F# A B E D#/Bb
The wanting is there but there is nothing left to go on
A B E C#m
In seven days I'll be in Baltimore
A B E C#m
In two more weeks I'll be in Dallas/Fort Worth
A B E
In one more minute I'll be gone
Bm A
My favorite kiss
Bm A
Just when her mouth is warm
E Bm A
[ ]
Bm A
Sky be torn
Bm A
Send down the fabled twist
E G A D C#m
The wanting is there but there is nothing left to go on
G A D Bm
In seven days I'll be in Baltimore
G A D F#
In two more weeks I'll be in Dallas/Fort Worth
G A D C#m
In one more minute I'll be gone (one more time)
G A D Bm
In seven days I'll be in Baltimore
G A D F#
In two more weeks I'll be in Dallas/Fort Worth
G A D Bm
In one more minute I'll be gone
F# G D
In one more minute I'll be gone
Edited to correct a Bm. |

You're right.
This song is another minor masterpiece by Frank. Outstanding... |

I'm starting to go thru all the tabs you guys posted. I did this one first because this song is incredible. This is a great example of how inconspicuously Frank modulates keys. I had no idea just by listening to the song that he changed keys like that. And that harmonica adds alot to the mood of this song. Wow.
I figured out the solo and corrected a couple chords. Tell me what you guys think.

SOLO SYMBOLS:
/ = slide
^ = bend
r = release bend
*G#
in the intro it sounds like Frank plays a normal G# barre chord, while the
lead guitar mixes in that dissonant E note. In the chorus, rhythm guitar
kind of restrains from playing that chord fully, but it may hit some note
that wouldn't make it a normal G#. If you want you can play what I listed
below, but normal G# sounds just fine. ~proverbialcereal
E-----
B--5-- What I do is play a normal G# for 3 beats, then switch to the
G--5-- dissonant chord before going back to A.
D--6--
A--6--
E-----

Derek, I agree with you about the key modulation. It blows me away. Kinda like the end of "Stupid Me" where he shifts from B to C. It's so subtle that you'd never even know unless you played it.
Damn, I can't wait to hear the album version. Somebody upload it to the newsgroups please! |

Yeah, Stupid Me is another example. I'm not that good at modulating. It always sounds so obvious when I try to in songs I write. I don't always like when it's sounds obvious and it's like, "HEAR YE, HEAR YE, I am changing keys now!"
The solo on this song is really cool. I think it is Rich Gilbert but I'm not sure.

| I found that for the intro just wiggle your index finger to hit that E on the B string works alright. What a great song! |
