Mountain Goats tab request thread!

September 20, 2007 09:52PM | Mountain Goats tab request thread!
This thread is for tab requests of tMG songs that you can't figure out, can't find anywhere, etc.

Please check the following site before requesting:


[www.themountaingoats.net]

That site has a TON of songs tabbed out.



also, to make it easier to see, please request and post answers like this...request is first, then response:

asking mcgee
request: Broom People


and then:

Tab for Broom People

A, D, E, F, G, H, Q, E, Rsus7









I can't find, or for SOME lame reason figure out:

request: Going to Spain
request: Against Pollution.


If anybody has any idea of the chords used please let me know. I think Going to Spain might start with Bm and then F#m.

not sure though.

argh these are such awesome songs.

I don't know about going to spain, but against pollution is just A and D with an E in there eventually.
September 21, 2007 12:57AM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
it's actually in some tuning I don't remember but Prayers and Tears manage it in standard tuning
September 21, 2007 01:17AM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
which one?

listening now, against pollution is obviously more complicated than A D E but, it can be approximated with those chords.
September 21, 2007 02:08AM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
Hmm. For Against Pollution, with the "A" and "D", if you play them barred, and move the "top/deepest" note down a fret, it kinda sounds like the bass line.

like,
A:
-5-     -5-
-5-     -5-
-6-  to -6-
-7-     -7-
-7-     -7-
-5-     -4-

I play Against Pollution with E and A, with a B in the chorus... it sounds fine, I've played along to the album and to live stuff with it...

E A E A
for the verse

and the chorus goes something along the lines of

E B A E
When the last days come...
E B A B
Morbider than sunsets...
E A E B
We will recognize...

I this is from memory... don't have a guitar in hand, but I do believe that's how I play it.

it was actually 2 7"s btw and the mastering date was 5/1, I cancelled it this a.m.
This is why you should be nice to everyone.

Hey, those tabs sounds pretty solid. Cheers, acowkickedme!

(also, it's "more vivid than sunsets", says I the nitpicker)
September 22, 2007 01:49AM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
I always thought that line was a little amiss.

Thanks for that.

Alright, rad thanks!


how about "going to spain"??
September 24, 2007 02:17PM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
Hum, is this thread for all tMG tab-requests? Or just for those two songs? If the latter, a thread is needed for the former!
September 24, 2007 03:45PM | Re: Tab request. the ULTIMATE tab request.
hm, i'll change the title to fit the former.
September 24, 2007 04:46PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
New Star Song anyone?

It sounds easy enough to play, it's my favorite song and I'd really like to learn it.
September 24, 2007 05:02PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
"Baltimore" and "Ultraviolet" please!
September 24, 2007 05:09PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
those are both on the tab site EE
September 24, 2007 05:36PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Soft Targets.

I think I've got the beginning figured out. I just play a C then slide up 2 frets, then up 2 more then up 1 more. Then C to F. That's as far as I can get, that is, if that's even right. Any help?

Also, It's all here in Brownsville.
September 24, 2007 06:01PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
All songs in thread tabbed at tmg.net wiki-tab page. Enjoy
September 24, 2007 06:02PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
will get to It's All Here In Brownsville sooner or later. Pretty spot on for Soft Targets,

C G F comes in at points and I think there's an Am-something else during the break but i will get to the whole thing soon too

best thread ever.
September 24, 2007 10:03PM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
Miiike, you should tab out these.

I'm not skilled enough to tab out franklin's stuff, and every one of those songs I've been hankering to play.

and so Mike's not alone in this endeavor, I'll try and fill some tab requests too.

The tabs should just be put up on the wiki site, no?

Also, if by some odd chance anyone knows how to play Feed This End, I'd be eternally grateful. I love that song so much I named my "band" after it. *shameless self-promotion*
September 25, 2007 12:06AM | Re: Mountain Goats tab request thread!
the verse parts of Feed This End are just Dmaj7 (xx0222) and D alternating.

The chorus i'm a bit sketchy on, but essentially I think it's D-A-E.

I'll put it up on the wiki in a few minutes.
