THE DEAD MILKMEN
Everybody's Got Nice Stuff But Me

from Beelzebubba

Tabbed by: Ben Gladdle (moose9377@hotmail.com)


I have a few queries with this one still, but nothing to detract
from the tab too much.

1) The intro chord. I'm pretty sure it's a Dm, but it may have
   a variation to it.
2) The chorus chords. I play power chords cause the high notes
   of the bar chords don't sound quite right. I'm sure you know
   what power chords are, but for the uninitiated, they are the
   low 3 strings of a bar chord. For example a C power chord is
   x355xx instead of x35553.
3) The E/Em dilemma. I eventually settled on Em. It's definitely
   an Em for the last verse, but for the chorus I'm not sure. It
   doesn't really matter as I'm playing power chords in the
   chorus anyway.

That said, I think this is pretty close. Any questions, please
feel free to mail me.

Intro:
-----
D


Chorus:
------
Dm          F        Em        C
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me


Verse:
-----
G                     Dm    Dm Dsus Dm
Look at that girl she makes me sick
She's got a wad of bills 6 inches thick
Got a brand new stereo a new TV
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I want a stereo I want a TV


chorus:
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me

verse:
People in nice cars how'd they get em?
I close my eyes try to forget em
Went out swimming got hit by a jet-ski
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I wanna car I wanna jet-ski

chorus:
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me


Verse:
-----

Same as previous verses, but the end is different.

G                 Dm Dm   Dsus Dm
She's got eyes of deepest blue
He's got hair that's green
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
G        Bm      Em
I wish I had the kind of cash
G             Bm        Em
To make heads turn when I walk past
G              Bm      Em
I wish I could live in luxury


Last Chorus:
-----------

Again, same as before, but ends slightly differently. The
C2 is still an ordinary C chord, just played differently
here (because it's easier).

Dm          F        Em        C
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I want cash, I want money
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I want a stereo I want a TV
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I want a car I want a jet-ski
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
I want hair that's blue or green
A           C2       B         Bb
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
Everybody's got nice stuff but me
A           C2       B     Bb  A
Everybody's got nice stuff but me

End on A.
