THE CRANBERRIES GUITAR TABULATURES

Last Update : July 30 th 1995

DISCLAIMERS about using this page.

You can find the original Guitar tablatures files hereJust a word, before you go there : most of theses files have the extension .ZThis means you ll have to uncompress them by using uncompress (under Unix).If you don t have Uncompress, another solution is to use a usual anonymous FTP (not from theses www pages) and force the uncompression during the downloading bytyping

get Myfile.extension.Z Myfile.extension

, in order to have directly uncompressed files.

I will not answer any questions about where to find uncompress (i'm quite fed upwith all the guys asking me every weeks ! Otherwise, for information, .tab and.crd extension are text files.

If you don't think theses is enough clear, here are the tablatures files : (I vecopied them here).

Ode to My Family -The Cranberries ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ from the album: No Need to Argue

Hi everyone! Having taken so much stuff from the Nevada site, Ithought I'd take a bit of time to figure this one out.

Intro:

For the intro, play the chords in an arpeggio style.

D Bm F#m G

Verse:

When playing the chords, pick the strings in random order avoiding the bassstrings.

D Bm F#m GUnderstand the things I say, don't turn away from me

D Bm F#m GCause I spent half my life out there, you wouldn't disagree.

D Bm D Bm F#m GD'you see me, d'you see, do you like me, do you like me standing there.

D Bm D Bm F#m F#m GD'you notice, d'you know, do you see me, do you see me, does anyone care.

Chorus:

D Bm F#m GUnhappiness, was when I was young, and we didn't give a damn.

D Bm F#m G'Cause we were raised, to see life as fun and take it if we can.

D Bm F#m GMy mother, my mother she hold me, did she hold me, when I was out there.

D Bm F#m GMy father, my father, he liked me, oh he liked me, does anyone care.

Verse 2:

Understand what I've become, it wasn't my design.

And people everywhere think, something better than I am.But I miss you, I miss 'cause I liked it, I liked it, when I was out there.D'you know this, d'you know, you did not find me, you did not find, does anyone care.

Repeat chorus

-----Ode to My Familyby the Cranberries

From Kevin Joson

I've seen the previous post to OLGA, and I guess it's okay, but here'sanother spin on it. Being an average guitarist, it's a pretty cruddyrendition, however, I'm happy with it. =)

Capo at the 2nd fret.

Just the basic cords:

C X32010Am X02210Em 022000F 133211

It starts with a strum of the chords, in the order C-Am-Em-F, a little bitafter she starts with the Doo-doo-doo-doots. ^_^

Shortly after, you go to the picking, I find it sorta sounds like:

C Am Em

e-0------0-------0----0------0------0-------0----0------0-------0----B---1------1---1---1----1------1------1---1---1----0------0---0---0--G-----0------0------------2------2------2------------0------0--------D--------------------------------------------------------------------A--------------------------------------------------------------------E--------------------------------------------------------------------

Fe-1------------------------------------------------------------------B---1----------------------------------------------------------------G-----2-0h2p0-0h2p0--------------------------------------------------D--------------------------------------------------------------------A--------------------------------------------------------------------

E--------------------------------------------------------------------

... and so on. You might find it works better some other way, but this waysounds fine. Just follow along with the previous version of this song,above.

Good Luck, and happy playing.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Kevin Joson ([email protected])"It's not the pace of life I'm worried about, it's the sudden stop at the end."

I Can't Be With You

From: [email protected] (Karl 'RiscMan' Davis)

"I can't be with you", The Cranberries.--------------------- From their 2nd album 'No need to argue'

Not sure if this has been done already, but as I was doing theCranberries at the moment, I thought someone would like this.Try to get the Irish accent. It makes it so much nicer ;)

-------------------------------------------------------------------A E


17/32

Lying in my bed again, F#m DAnd I cry cause you're not here.A ECrying in my head again, F#m DAnd I know that it's not clear. APut your hands, put your hands E F#m DInside my face and see that it's just you.

ABut it's bad, and it's mad, EAnd it's making me sad F#m DBecause I can't be with you

Chorus:------ A E F#m D Be with you, Be with you, Be with you, Be with you, A E Be with you, Be with you,

F#m D Babe I can't be with you.

Thinking back on how things wereAnd how we loved so wellI wanted to be the motherof your childAnd now it's just farewell

Put your hands inside my handsAnd come with me,We'll find another end

And my head, and my headOn anyone's shoulderCause I can't be with you.

(Chorus)

Cause you're not here, you're not hereBaby I can't be with youCause you're not here, you're not hereAnd back I'm still in love with you.

(ad. lib to end)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Again, this sounds good on an electric-acoustic, using a Passac orDI and a bit of reverb - but don't go overboard!

The best way to get the 'muffled' acoustic sound is to cut yourfingernails and use no pick. Use your thumb and index finger onthe strings, quickly raking, and your palm to slightly deaden thestrings.. still, if you find a better way... ;)


18/32

Use >5th barres for the chords (A == E @ 5th, E == A @ 7th,F#m == Am @ 7th, D == A @ 5th) when it starts getting going.Open chords sound good at the start, but once the rest of theband kicks in, the rapid raking of the barres sounds better.

Haven't worked out the electric in the background yet, tho.Enjoy.

I have no interest in having my name given, but I have found an error in theabove stated file. Zombie by the cranberries is a favorite of mine.....The chord progression in the file reads Fm Db G# GmThis makes no sense. I believe the prpoper progression to be: Em C G D/F#Thanks for your time. I will be pleased to see this change made as I usethe guitar archive quite often. Thanks again, Marcus Duncan

Uncertain

Nothing Left At All

Pathetic senses

Them

Okay, this is my first tab and I've only been playing for

about three months, so please forgive any and allmistakes. I'm sure there will be enough to go around.

THEMbythe Cranberries

The only place I've found this song is on the Lingersingle CD. It's really pretty and fairly simple, hence myability to play it.


29/32

The main riff that's repeated through most of the songgoes like this:

e:---2-2-------2-2-------2-2-------2-2----------------B:--3---3-----3---3-----3---3-----3---3---------------G:-4-----4---4-----4---2-----2---2-----2--------------D:4-------4-4-------4-0-------0-0-------0-------------A:----------------------------------------------------E:----------------------------------------------------

e:---5-5-------5-5-------2-2-------2-2----------------B:--3---3-----3---3-----3---3-----3---3---------------G:-0-----0---0-----0---2-----2---2-----2--------------D:0-------0-0-------0-0-------0-0-------0-------------A:----------------------------------------------------E:----------------------------------------------------

I think it's in 4/4, but I could be wrong

Don't Bm

listen to what they say Dmake up your mind ?walk away D

don't even Bmgive them the time of day Dthey put you wrong ?turn away D

so why Bmdo they all just walk away? Dthere was something wrong ?they didn't want to stay D

why... Bmdid they listen to someone else? DI did something wrong ?*Um, I have no idea waht this line is* D

that attitude This part is athey all got that attitide little different.that attitude It's a roughthey all got that ah-.... electric sound

Don'tlisten to what they say Same old riff

make up your mindwalk away

Won't " "ever happene againthey've all gone wronggone insane (?)

that's why " "they all just walked away


30/32

there was nothing wrongthey didn't want to stay

that's why " "they listened to someone elseI did nothing wrongnothing... *Again, I just don't know*

That's why... " "That's why...

That's why...That's why...

If you haven't heard the song you probably won't get itout of this since I don't know what I'm doing, but maybeit'll lead to something cool. What, I don't know.

Another little tidbit comes from the dreams CD single.The song What You Were is all Am --> Em and back. Again,not real tough stuff, but I'm just a beginner.

I hope this is some kind of help to someone.

Em AmI Don't need to see it, no, no, no etc.Em Am GI Don't need to see it, no, no, no etc.

My head is hanging now and my eyes are brown, they're brown, they're brown
