I was seriously considering emaliing Lyle about The End of the Summer. But he is on tour with Sting I think so I don't wanna bother him.

I don't know what the hell is up with the chorus. I suppose I'll keep at it.

I don't know how you guys do it. I've only tabbed one thing, and it was the drum tab for Dime by CAKE. I lost it anyway. I need to find that, it took me a long time.

Thanks for the sheet music, that should definitely help. Or maybe not.

Alright Derek, try an Am+ as that first chord. Or, if you'd prefer:

left hand: F-C-A
right: G Eb G

Although, by that standard, it looks like the second chord may be a Gm9 not just a Gm...

A couple of comments regarding "The End of the Summer":

I'm pretty sure that the chord in the verse is an e half-diminished seventh )rather than a Bbdim5), which should be written as the letter E, followed by a circle with a slash through it. I don't know if it's possible to do such a symbol on this forum (you can do it in Microsoft Word), so you may have to write it like Ehalf-dim7 or Em7b5. In case your not aware, this chord is formed by the notes E-G-Bb-D (almost the same as what you wrote). In the Bridge, you used the chord Em7b5, which is the same thing as E half-dimished seventh, so if you can figure out how to use the circle with slash symbol, it would be much easier to read and write. In the chorus, I'm not sure about the guitar, but the piano definitely plays a Gm chord as the first chord on each line, and the bass goes from F to G, like so:


Gm/F Gm
Save me

See, on the "Me" there's also an 'E' in the chord, which is why I think it's a Gm9, but I readily admit to not being anything close to a chord expert. For example, I'm not sure how you tell what the chord is. If you use the lowest note as your base, "Save" should be some sort of F. Which I know isn't always the case, but I don't remember the rules there... but I don't see how that would be a Gm chord because wouldn't that have a Bb? Again, no expert here, I defer to Nimrod, but am curious what I'm missing. I would think that transcribing from piano to guitar you'd need to include some of the bass notes since the treble a lot, but maybe that's what I'm doing wrong.

Well, I take that back about the chorus, it may be more like


Gm(add4)/F  Gm6
  Save       Me


There's definitely a C in the first chord

Okay, just saw your post. Let me think it over and listen some more before jumping to any conclusions.

Here's what we know for sure--the absolutely indisputable facts:
-There's an E in the second chord--the E right above middle C to be exact.
-There's a C in the first chord--middle C--which moves down to Bb in the second chord. This C can be clearly heard at exactly 1:38-39 into the song
-There's at least one G in both chords--the one right above middle C. This is the highest note in each chord.
-There is an Eb--the one right above middle C--in the first chord (which I missed in the above posts when I called this a Gm), which changes to an E in the second chord. (this is especially clear from 2:39-2:42)
-The bass guitar is playing an F for the first chord, and in the second one a G (for possibly the clearest example of this, listen from 2:39 to 2:42)

Now, no longer in the indisputable facts, I am very confident that the second piano chord is built in the right hand with the notes Bb-E-G, with a G and possibly other notes (it's not clear enough for me to distinguish) in the left hand.

I am very confident that the first chord is built in the right hand with the notes C-Eb-G, and in the left hand with an F and possibly some other notes.

It is possible that there is also a lower G in the right hand of each chord that I am not distinguishing, but I don't think so.

I therefore officially (unless there are any objections) declare the chords to be:

Cm/F and then Gm6 (without the D, which is not necessary to point out, since it's in the vocal melody and therefore an implied note in the chord, so to speak).

Cm/F works for me, though I should play it at home before saying so. The 'A' is missing, but probably not a problem. And yeah, that should've been a Gm6 not 9, my bad. Should know better than to type upside-down.

Thanks for all your input guys. But, I think I'm just gonna say the answer is "C". That is the default answer for a multiple choice question so I don't see why it wouldn't be for this...

Alright, I'm messing around with it right now in Adobe Premiere to see if I can isolate anything. I'm thinking the keyboards are adding in some extra notes that the guitar might not even be hitting. Stay tuned... I'm agreeing with the Gm6, but I'm not convince about the Cm/F yet. You all could be right though.

After taking out any frequencies below 60 Hz and listening through headphones, I'm definitely changing the Ab in this part:

     Gm      Bb      Ab           Gsus4  G  
   A house becomes a ghost in the heart

It sounds like the Em7b5 chord but one step higher. So Fm7b5 I suppose. That sound good?

Alright, I agree with the Cm/F, so this should be the final chorus:

[CHORUS]      
      
   Cm/F  Gm6     A7          D7
    Save me, the ghost in my heart

   Cm/F  Gm6     Am6        D7  
    Save me, the mark on my soul

   Cm/F  Gm6     A7         D7
    Save me, the end of the summer

   Cm/F  Gm6     Bbadd9         D7
    Save me, I'm  not  feeling whole

and the guitar chords will be something like:
e--3------0----0----2--(5)---1----
B--4------3----2----1---5----1----
G--5------3----0----2---5----3----
D--3------2----2----0---4----3----
A--3------x----0--------0----1----
E---------3-----------------------
   Cm/F   Gm6  A7   D7  Am6  Bbadd9


Any objections to this?

I'm still debating that "Ab" though. Maybe it is:

xx3534

Notes:

x x F C D Ab

That sounds right to me, but I don't know what it's called.

And because of that chord I'm thinking the Gsus4 G part might just be

e--3--3--
b--3--3--
g--5--4--
d--3--3--
a--x--x--
e--x--x--

So would that make it a G7sus4 G7 ?

Which part? The new "Ab" replacement? That chord sounds right to me if that's what you mean.

F-C-D-Ab would be Fm6. I think your right about that one. Remember, it's Fm6/Ab. Actually, the guitar itself may not be playing an Ab, but the bass is, so I don't know if it's necessary to point that out or not. And yes, those chords you diagramed are indeed G7sus4 and G7. The G is missing, but once again, it's what I would call an "implied" G since there's a G in the vocal melody.

Final End of the Summer tab!!! Let me know what you guys think and if I should make any changes. This tab is complicated as hell, but there is no other way to do it. I might also tab it with the chord formations over top of each word. That might help.

Frank Black
Song: The End of the Summer
Album: Fast Man Raider Man
Arranged by: Lyle Workman
Tabbed by: ProverbialCereal


"GOOD LUCK FIGURING OUT THE END OF THE SUMMER....I CAN'T 
PLAY IT." ~Frank Black (post from FrankBlack.net forum)

   Yet sinks in the mud to decay

     Gm      Bb      Fm6          G7sus4  G7

   A town is born of silver and stone

       Bb  C     Bb   C      Dsus4   D
   And beaten to sand by the tide

     Gm     Bb      Fm6         G7sus4   G7       
   A town becomes a mark on the soul

      Gm             D7           Gm    G
   Of those who will cross that divide

   Come unto me,  we'll lie in the grass

      Em7b5     Ebmaj7  D7          Gm
   We won't be ashamed, summer will pass

  Em7b5     Ebmaj7   F             Bb7            
   Felling a tree to hide from the wild

  Em7b5        Ebmaj7   D7        Gm
   Weaving the reeds to cover our child

   A clan is made of marriage and blood

       Bb    C    Bb  C    Dsus4   D
   The journey is our only prize

       Gm   Bb     Fm6        G7sus4  G7 
   And if a clan is rent into two
 
       Gm             D7           Gm
   You still have her lips and his eyes


[BREAK/ORGAN SOLO]

	play through VERSE 2 one time

[CHORUS] - same chords

 Save me, the ghost in my heart
 Save me, the mark on my soul
 Save me, the end of the summer
 Save me, I'm not feeling whole


[VERSE 4]

   This place is made of water and rock

       Bb    C      Bb   C     Dsus4   D
   Yet burns in the pyre of the stars

      Gm       Bb     Fm6           G7sus4  G7
   My love for you is stronger than that
        Gm           D7       Eb*   Eb/DB
   I'll find you wherever you are
 
[END]

     Eb/Bb   Ebadd4   Eb/G  F9sus

Derek, what do you think about Frank's version of Le Sicilienne? I think what Lyle (and now you) have done is something special, but I don't think the song itself could ever inspire me to play it. I would love to know your thoughts because you've spent some quality time with 'End of Summer'.

I like Frank's version of Le Sicilenne. I can't say I've heard one arranged by Gabriel Faure, but the song is complex and tricky on guitar. It's no I, IV, V progression. It definitely isn't a "fun" song to play because it's difficult, but if anyone has the time I'd recommend trying to play it on guitar. It gets you playing chords you may not be used to; it would be a good finger exercise. If no one ever uses this tab I won't mind, because I'm glad I figured it out (with a little help). It took forever I'll admit.

Ok keyboard friends... check out this part of "Seven Days" and let me know if it sounds correct. And whether you know the official chord name.


Eb       D7       Bbm             F    xx3021  << Db-bass note
   On my way back home from seven years
     xx3020  F  Dm
   In seven days
Eb       D7       Bbm             F      xx3021
   Seven winters blown like seven players
      xx3020   F    Dm   F  Dm
   Who had no cheer


The notes of xx3021 are: F, G, Db, F

The notes of xx3020 are: F, G, Db, E

My guess at the first one would be F suspended 2nd Augmented 5th, but that sounds ridiculous. Or maybe it's a sus9, aug12? Ha.

I'm sure it'll get used by many, and I'll definately try out the chords you've tabbed, they're new to me. Has this been the toughest song to tab in your peerless position as fB Tabmaster?

Don't forget the bass lines ;)

yes. I've had trouble with a few chords in the past, and some chords I wasn't %100 positive on, but this has prooved the most difficult.

I am working on It's Just Not Your Moment bass line... well at least the intro bass line.

Sounds good. In the intro I would add something like...

e--3-3--
B--1-1--
G--0-0--
D-------
A-------
E-------

...right after the first C, to include more of the lead riff.

  I don’t have time for your tears
  It’s kinda hard to explain
  I got a bird in my brain
  I got a dog in my ear

[VERSE] RIFF / A G F#

  I hear the whistling outside
  I think you think its a witch
  She’ll be scratching my itch
  She’ll be brushing my hide

  I think I’ll go for a ride

  Through the rows of places I was born

  Into Babel’s maze
          D    E  F#
  In that dark design
            A     D     E     F#
  Where the neon red of exit signs
           A      E
  Leads my simple gaze

  Where from loneliness I often died
         A    E               A
  And so many times I will be raised

Song: Don't Cry That Way
Album: Fast Man Raider Man
Tabbed by: ProverbialCereal

[INTRO]

G-------5---
D--5h7------    C

[VERSE]
C             Em
  Years flew away
    F                C
  I saw her standing there
                   Em
  Our last parking lot
            F      G      C
  'cause we didn’t have a prayer
         Em    G            C
  Liquid roses trying to confess

[CHORUS]
  C                           
    Don’t cry that way, 
          F        C
    Don’t cry that way
          G        C
    Don't cry that way
           F      C       G    C
    Little girl I feel so helpless

[VERSE]
C                Em
  The city far below
    F           G
  I let a river pour
         C              Em
  In our corner room of glass
     F            Fm
  We had a sad contest
C              Em       G                F
  Beneath your skin you found two rivers more
  
[CHORUS]
          Em       C
    Don’t cry that way
          F        C
    Don’t cry that way
          G        C
    Don't cry that way
           F      C       G    C
    Little girl I feel so helpless

[BRIDGE]
Am                     C                 F
  Do they know as they fight their way upstream
Am                           G
  Have they a reason to know why?
Am                    C          F
  Here we go into the analyzer’s dream
Am                            G
  And when we get there do we die?

[VERSE]
C             Em        F              Em
  Hey brother count the ways that I am blessed
C          Em                G    F    G      
  But I am cursed with your image as a child
C       Em      Am               G
  Silently like chicklets in the wild

[CHORUS x2]
          Em       C
    Don’t cry that way, 
          F        C
    Don’t cry that way
          G        C
    Don't cry that way

It's ok. I'll resend all the new tabs in one zip folder once I finish a couple more. If that makes it any easy for you.
