Artist: Barenaked Ladies
Song: A

	I saw this tab a while ago on Tabcrawler, but it was wrong...so I've fixed it for you.  Enjoy.  I used Stephen Denommee's tab as a base for my work.


Intro:
A C#m7 A C#m7, then G Bm7, then E (listen to CD for the timing and amount of repetitions)

	Neat Hammer-on riff for the A and G chords in the intro and verses (you'll hear it in the actual song on the CD)

e|--5---5------3---3----|
B|--5---5------3---3----|
G|--5-h-6------3-h-4----|
D|--5-h-7------3-h-5----|
A|--5-h-7------3-h-5----|
E|--5---5------3---3----|



Verse 1:

A          C#m7           A                     C#m7
A is for angry which is what you are at me

A          C#m7           G                   Bm7
A is for adult which is what I'll never be

A         C#m7              A               C#m7
A is for applesauce, my favourite meal

A         C#m7         G                       Bm7
A is for Adam which is how I sometimes feel

                  G                 Bm7
     like I'm the only man on Earth

                   E
     and I've forgotten what that's worth


Verse 2:

A is for Arthur he's a lovable drunk

AM&Azing like Thelonius Monk

A is for argument, A is for apparently

A is for antagonism that's not even there

     it's just you begging for affection

     or something I won't even mention


Chorus
        Dmaj7   C#m7           A
And I don't even know why you keep on trying

        Dmaj7     C#m7        A
Like I don't even know why I keep on lying

          Dmaj7      C#m7       A          F#m
There are millions of people in worlds of their own

     G           Bm7        E
And two of them can't let go.


Verse 3: (same as before)

A is for algebra, I learned it in school

A is what Fonzie said 'cause he was very cool

A is for adversary, A is for alection

A is arousal you are giving me an erection

     c'mon I'm trying to show affection

     for longer than a half an hour.


Chorus

Bridge
F#m    C#m7

F#m	   C#m7
Met a woman I used to know

F#m      Bm7     C#m7
Long before you, long ago.

F#m              C#m7
All I could say, after hello

F#m	C#m7 Dmaj7  E(VII)
Was "are you still single?"


Verse 4:

A is for attitude I can't help but wield

A is for arrogance, emotional shield

A is for acting, A is for abhorrently

A is for asshole which is what I am how rude of me

     I owe you an apology

     I'm sorry.

Chorus

	Ok, as a foot-note, this song is easier and sounds better with barred chords, rather than open ones...Here are the ones I use below (The E in the intro/verse and chorus is open, but the one in the bridge is barred at the seventh fret).  I also cannot say I'm exactly sure of the chords in the bridge, but it sounds good on its own if you aren't playing along with the recording.
