I had a chance to pick up a guitar for 5 minutes today. Here's all I was able to get so far:

F#5 B5
|-------------------------0---------0----|
|-7---5-----7---5-----4------2--4------2-|
|--------6---------6---------------------|
|----------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------|


The chorus starts on F#5

|----|
|----|
|-11-|
|-11-|
|--9-|
|----|


That's it for now. Anyone else take a stab at this? I'll probably have a chance to sit down with the chorus later tonight.

Intro: Riff A

Riff A
I've been interpreted and shrunk
I've been as touchless as a drunk
F#5 A5
This is as bad as or worse
B5 A5
as bad as or worse
F#5 A5
This is as bad as or worse
B5 A5
as bad as or worse

Riff B
Love is a curse
Be her world, all it deserves
Love is a curse
Get what you can't not desert

I know, I know it's all just first blurts
That he who would try to own deserves it
And I know it's got nothing to do with deserves it
Just that you don't just blurt
Riff A
"love is a curse"
love is a curse
love is a curse
You don't just blurt, "love is a curse"

Riff A
Though I've been too weak to escape
And I don't have the strength to pluck a grape
F#5 A5
Though it's as bad as or worse
B5 A5
as bad as or worse
F#5 A5
Though it's as bad as or worse
B5 A5
as bad as or worse

Riff B
Love is a first
Felt the dull fangs of the truth
Love is a first
Their music they torture to
Love is a first
A song would power it first
Love is a first
Let's walk down the darknesses horse

Riff C
We were frozen until he saw us
and smoke and murder fell on the floor
and watch the own death of your TV
and dreams are stuck in urgent tweads
Drain the ocean of words
like God's representatives on earth
Learn to hurt and how not to hurt
and the thing you taught me and what I learned
Love is a first

Riff D + Riff A
And it's as bad as or worse
Love is a first
As bad as or worse
Love is a first
As bad as or worse
Love is a first
As bad as or worse

Riff B
Love is a curse
Be her world, all it deserves
Love is a first
Go where the curtain occurs
Love is a curse
Get what you can't not desert
Love is a first
It just occurs and a occurs

Riff C + Riff A
We were frozen until he saw us
and smoke and murder fell on the floor
and watch the own death of your TV
and dreams are stuck in urgent tweads
Drain the ocean of words
like God's representatives on earth
Learn to hurt and how not to hurt
and the thing you taught me and what I learned
Love is a first

Nice.

I'm hoping to spend some time tomorrow to develop a new site for <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://tabs.hipfans.com">http://tabs.hipfans.com</a><!-- m --> - using what you sent me, what I had that Corby created, and something new... and searchable!

Sounds exciting! I can't wait to see it. If you need a hand with anything just PM me.

Thanks guys!

I've got the basics of the new site in place - check it out and let me know what you think. I need to add most of the tabs, and some graphics, but I think that this will make life much easier. (I'm also sorting out some font issues so that the tabs display in a fixed width font on screen, not just when downloaded.)

Tags, Categories, Search-ability, comments if mistakes, corrections, improvements are found, etc.

Both Morning Moon and LIAF are both available on thehip.com - but it all depends on what's in your music player on the site...

Thanks - even with the <pre> I was having some issues with things displaying correctly - but I think I've got it now.
