Elliott Smith

I'm pretty sure Elliott plays this differently, but I think this sounds pretty
similar to the recording.
Here are the chords first:

Note: The chord labeled "Asus2" is not actually Asus2; I just couldn't find a name for it.
Now, the sections that go (Em Cmaj Em Cmaj) can be strummed, but Elliott plays
something like this:

That's not exact, but it's pretty easy to figure out the strumming if you listen
to the song.
^{A Am Cadd9 Em Asus2 C
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7}
No b ^A ad dream fucker's going to b ^Am oss me around ^{Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
A} Christian Brothers going to ^Am take him down ^{Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
D} But it can't help me get o ^F ver ^A
Don't ^Am be ^Cadd9 cross, it' ^Em s sick what I ^Asus2 want ^{C A}
I've s ^Am een the ^Cadd9 boss blink ^Em on and ^Asus2 off ^{C
Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
A} Fake concerns is what's the ^Am matter, man ^{Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7}
And you t ^A hink I ought to shake your motherf ^Am ucking hand ^{Em Cmaj7 Em Cmaj7
D} Well, I know how ^F much you ca ^A re
Don't ^Am be ^Cadd9 cross, it's ^Em sick what I ^Asus2 want ^{C A}
I've s ^Am een the ^Cadd9 boss blink ^Em on and ^Asus2 off ^{C A}
Come h ^Am ere by ^Cadd9 me, I w ^Em ant you ^Asus2 here ^{C A}
Night ^Am mares be ^Cadd9 come me, it's so f ^Em ucking ^Asus2 clear ^C
Solo:
^{D F A} Don't ^Am be ^Cadd9 cross, it's ^Em sick what I ^Asus2 want ^{C A}
I've s ^Am een the ^Cadd9 boss blink ^Em on and ^Asus2 off ^{C A}
Come ^Am here b ^Cadd9 y me, I ^Em want you ^Asus2 here ^{C A}
Night ^Am mares be ^Cadd9 come me, it's so ^Em fucking ^Asus2 clear ^C
Night ^Am mares be ^Cadd9 come me, it's so ^Em fucking ^Asus2 clear ^C
If you want to play the solo while you strum the chords, here is what I do.
Again, it's not exact, but you can figure out how to play it on your own pretty
easily.

So that's pretty much it… Have fun learning and playing this song, and I hope
this tab helped you out.
