Fugazi tab for "Give me the Cure"

This interpretation/transcription is by Christoph Borst (mohawk@tamu.edu), 1994
                                        www.xoph.net

At the beginning, it's like this:

---------------------------------
-----3-----2---0-----0-----2---3-
---------------------------------  (repeat many times)
-2-2---2-2---2---2-2---2-2---2---
---------------------------------
---------------------------------
(let ring on most notes)

  Note: At one point, the second half of that part is left off.
        Also, some chorus or an overdub is added for a while.

Then, it does this:
     -------                                          ---
     -------                   and it ends up just    ---
     -----3- (repeat                strumming this    -3-
     -2-2---  several               with crescendo:   -2-
     -------  times)                                  ---
     -------                                          ---

Then something like this chord is struck:

     -0-
     -5-
     -4-
     -2-
     ---
     ---

The second half uses these chords:
(I have not indicated how many times each is struck)
  --- --- ---   --- ---
  --- --- ---   --- ---
  -7- -6- -4-   -6- -7-
  -7- -6- -4-   -6- -7-
  -5- -4- -2-   -4- -5-
  --- --- ---   --- ---
^^
Note: you may want to strike the open E string
      or an E chord at the beginning

and again, but with high part added

  --- --- ---   -------
  --- --- ---   -------
  -7- -6- -4-   -8/9\8-
  -7- -6- -4-   -6/7\6-
  -5- -4- -2-   -------
  --- --- ---   -------
^^
Note as above

This riff is thrown in sometimes:
(the last chord is cut from the figure that precedes it)

------------------------ ---
------------------------ ---
------------------------ ---
-5--5--5--5--7--7--7-5-- -2-
-5--5--5--5--7--7--7-5-- -2-
-3--3--3--3--5--5--5-3-- -0-
                         ^^^
                         This last chord just begins the next figure,
                         which was given about 30 lines up.



the song approaches its end by varying the previous
riff -- the following is added:

-----------------------------
-----------------------------
-----------------------------
----------------------/\-----   (make the last note waver by bending the
-9-----9-10---9-----9//\\----    neck forward or using the whammy bar or
-7-----7--8---7-----7/sl\--0~~   whatever you've got, or you can simulate
                                 it with a bent note one 7th up)


Finally there's a mess during which I just
hold the following chord.  I emphasize different tones in
it to make it sound more like the recording, e.g. by hitting just
the open E or A strings sometimes and the other 4 strings other times.

     -0-
     -5-
     -4-
     -2-
     -0-
     -0-
