Okay, we'll see how long this game will last.

Paste a (TAB or chords) portion of a Frank Black or Pixies song and we'll try to guess the song. And then someone can pick a new song.

Get out your guitars...

Name that tune:

e-4-5--------------
b-----4-5----------
g---------4-5------
d-------------5-6--

It sounds like something the Pixies wouldn't do (turning the major 4th chord to a minor).

Is it that one song that goes "...in a little while?"

How about a stripped down version of "Sleep?"
What I'm hearing: C C/B C/A C/G F Fm



How about some bass tab (It's fast)

Yeah, you're right! Oh, I'm sorry, fbc... I thought you'd given away the answer. I thought you said that the answer was "I Love Rock And Roll..."

I wonder if the clue "hurting for the answer" is a clue to the song title or possibly lyrics from a fb song or pixies

You might be onto something, jtjcp88. Also, I noticed "hurting for the answer" is an anagram for "urethra frightens now". What could fbc mean by that?
