Getting back to the topic of accurate OLP tabs...any tabs by a guy named Bob Morgano is pretty accurate

examples please
we are the brand new beatniks. we are the down and outers.
we are the bleeding hearts, beating syncopated, broken rhythm.
our speed is often break neck. we need to slow it down.
tired of being sleepless. tired of being broken.

I have yet to find ANY website with worthwhile OLP tabs. Granted, they're all decent, and you'll be able to play along and whatnot, but they're not what I'd call accurate. Accurate is the Clumsy tab book, which is the holy grail. They for sure need to release some more tab books by these guys.

Here's how I play In Repair:

It's a surprisingly simple song.


Down 1/2 step.

[strumming not shown]

Clean tone
e-|----------
b-|----------
g-|--------5-
d-|-8--6--5-
a-|-8--6--3-
e-|-6--4----

e-|----------------
b-|----------------
g-|--------5---/8-
d-|-8--6--5---/8-
a-|-8--6--3---/6-
e-|-6--4----------

Prechorus:

e-|------4-
b-|------4-
g-|-5/6-6- [three times]
d-|-5/6-6-
a-|-3/4-4-
e-|--------

e-|---------
b-|---------
g-|-5/6-6/8
d-|-5/6-6/8
a-|-3/4-4/6
e-|---------

e-|------4-
b-|------4-
g-|-5/6-6- [three times]
d-|-5/6-6-
a-|-3/4-4-
e-|--------

e-|---------
b-|---------
g-|-5/6-6/8
d-|-5/6-6/8
a-|-3/4-4/6
e-|---------


Chorus [light distortion]:

e-|---------------
b-|---------------
g-|--------8----6
d-|-3--6--8--8-6 [repeated]
a-|-3--6--6--8-4
e-|-1--4-----6---


Lock the door:
[lightly, slightly muted]
e-|----------
b-|----------
g-|--------5-
d-|-8--6--5-
a-|-8--6--3-
e-|-6--4----

Verse/Prechorus again

Chorus again

Bridges:

"Take this time to figure it out..." no guitar.

Unintelligable voice in background:

[distortion]

e-|--------------------
b-|--------------------
g-|-10--13--8------6-
d-|-10--13--8--8--6- [Two times]
a-|-8---11--6--8--4-
e-|--------------6----

Then chorus & "Lock the door" again.

That's how I do it. Seems to work well for me.

I got a fender strausser acoustic.. it's a 3/4. My fam overestimated how short I am when they bought it, so I'm gonna learn to play it, and then save up for a full size electric-acoustic fender, which is awesome. I wanna be loud, baby!

Here's the correct In Repair.
Standard.

Verse
-
-
-
-7 5 9 7 5 9 12
-7 5 9 7 5 9 12
-5 3 7 5 3 7 10

Pre Chorus
-10
-
-
-10 12
-10 12
-8 10 X 2
Chorus
Raine just playes Em, G D A and C, all campfire chords, but here are the power chords if that's your fancy
-
-
- 7 2 5
-2 5 7 2 5
-2 5 5 0 3
-0 3

There, it's just that over again. and you just play B G A for "lock the door"
Easy.
Don't ask questions, just accept it.
