by Placebo
Tabbed by Ben Coley

This song is a very popular Placebo song, and is different because of the
main rhythm being played on the Toms. Here goes...

Guitar intro
HH |-o---o---o------------|
CC |-----------------x---x|
SD |-------------o--------| <-intro - the crashes are the down beat for the
BD |-----------o---o-o---o|             verse...

MT |---------------o-------------------------------o-----------------------|
SD |-o-------------------------------o-------------------------------o-----|
FT |-o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o---o-|
BD |-----------------o-----------o-------------------o-----------o---------|

Do this, and on the 4th snare beat, do:

                     |---|=down beats of next verse bit...
CC |-----------------x---x-|
SD |-o---o-o-o-o-o-o-------|
BD |-----------------o---o-|

Then keep doing this until Brian sings the line "What a gas, what a beautiful
ass." About when he says "beautiful", do a kit roll:

CC |-----------------------x-|<-chorus down-beat
SD |-o-----------------------|
ST |-----o--o----------------|   The more you listen to it, the more you will
MT |-----------o--o----------|   get the timing. Thesnare at the start of the 
FT |-----------------o--o----|   fill is the end of the verse part...
BD |-----------------------o-|   If you get the timing right, this fill sounds
                                 really good.

The chorus then goes:

     |---down beat from fill
CC |-x-------------------------| This sounds good if the Hi-hat is choked
HH |-----x---x---x---x---x---x-| and do a snare fill every four snare beats. 
SD |---------o---------------o-| Also, try extra crashes on some snare beats.
BD |-o-----o-------o-o-----o---| It sounds good!! The snare fill is the same
                                 as the other verse one...
Bridge:

     |-down beat
CC |-x-------------------------|  This is the basic bridge. There is also a
MT |---------o-----------o-----|  rhythm part that I have'nt tabbed. After 
SD |-----o-----------o---------|  the bridge, do the same two crashes into
FT |-------------o-----------o-|  the verse again. If you listen to it lots,
BD |-o-----o---o---o---o---o---|  then you'll soon get it.

The better you get at playing this, the better you can make it sound. Then,
you can try your own veriations. I play this in two bands, and it sounds great!!
