Sweet Pickle Salad Limits tabbed by Clayton Ptak evenflow_pj@yahoo.com 1-23-02 updated 10-26-02 First of all. in order to get the same notes, I always have to tune my guitar from Standard tuning to less than a quarter step up. the way it looks on my tuner is that in the center would be the exact note usually. but for SPS i tune it so that its about 2/3's between the center and the right side. every version i've heard of all the SPS songs are sped up by a little bit. Unless you have an un-altered version, you'll have to tune up too. If you do have the un-altered version, I WANT IT DAMNIT! Or if you know of any program that can alter an mp3 or wav file's tempo by just a tiny amount, please let me know. i'd love to be able to listen to un-altered versions of these awesome pieces. Anyway, all Soloing and lead fills are all in E minor I believe. lyrics from Frayed.org ------------------------------------------------------------ C5 Am G G|--2b4r2--0---0----| C5 Am D

A|-------------------------------------------| E|-------------------------------------------| Describe to me tarnished The reasons I was banished The man who could not come in with his cold Once was attractive, now holds a different reaction A piece of this underworld Now alone with no negotiating By myself without the might of nations Solitary is not confinement at all Well no textbook definition It's not me I'm missing And it's not you, it's something that never was B F Well it's not funny is it Preoccupied with limits B G Well I like songs that are sad and long B F I don't sleep with envy B G My eyes are mean, I'm not too friendly C Am G Strange I wish I'd wanted more (can't let go) C Am G Well if you remember that long ago (can't let go) Verse with flute lead 2x You see it's 4:30 and you have to be up so early And you wish you didn't have to go Yeah, but get on home, he's waiting And this is no time for intimidating But, if you were mine, I'd never leave you alone B F Well it's not funny is it Always preoccupied with limits B G I like songs that are sad and long, yes I do B F now I don't sleep with envy B G My eyes are mean, I'm not too friendly C Am G Strange I wish I'd wanted more (can't let go) C Am G Well if you remember that long ago (can't let go) Em C A/F# Esus7 So yeah, wake up and tell me something's wrong Em C A/F# Esus7 Yeah, it's time to take a
