Black & White People

	  		 
Tabs: This is a song of the new Matchbox Twenty album mad season by  
matchbox twenty.  
If you don?t have it, get it, it is absolutely amazing.   
This song is Black and White People, it?s accompanied by a bunch of  
horns  
and such so it?s best to just play along with the CD. Standard  
tuning... no capo. 
 
 
INTRO: This is the horn part tabbed for guitar. It?s all just on the  
high e string. 
 
e--3-3-1-3-3-1-3-8-7-5-5-3-3-3-1-3-8-6-8-10-3-1-3-1-3-3-1-3-8-7-5-- 
e--5-3-3-1-3-1-0-8-13-12-10 
 
 
VERSE 1: 
 
G		   C	    G				C 
One more day down, Everybody has those days 
 
G		     		C		     G		C 
Where one soft sweet song is just enough to clear my head 
 
In between "head" and the chord change is this on horns: 
e:3-3-3-1-1-1-1-2-3 
 
G		     C 
Fall on real life, (fall on real life) 
 
G			      C 
Is anybody left here sane? 
 
Em			D5			 Cadd9 
And we?ll slide on over, the accept  fate 
 
					G 
Man it?s bound to be a powerful thing 
 
 
CHORUS: 
 
G				C 
And if it?s just that you?re weak, can we talk about it? 
 
G			C				 
It?s gettin so damn creepy just nursing this  
 
D5 
Ghost of a chance 
 
					Cadd9 
The fiction, the romance, and the Technicolor dreams 
 
			G  C  G  C 
Black and white people 
 
 
VERSE 2: 
 
G			C 
One boy headstrong 
 
G					C 
He thinks everything here is just plain 
 
G			C					G	C 
He?s pushed down so hard you can hear him start to sink 
 
G		   C				G 
And it?s one last round of this petty conversation 
 
 
				C				Em 
You hold on boy, cuz you won?t go down like this 
 
			D5				Cadd9 
You just roll on over and lay down till it?s more that you can take 
 
 
CHORUS: same as last time 
 
The solo (with horns) is as follows: 
e-7-5-7-5-7-5-0-3-5-3-3-2-0-2-3-2 
e-7-5-7-5-7-5-0-3-2-3-3-2-2-0-2-3 
e-2-3-7-5-5-3-5-7 
 
That little guitar thing in between solo and next verse: 
 
e----3-------------------- 
B-----3-------3---------- 
G--------0--------------- 
 
G			C	G			C 
So one more day down, everybody?s changing 
 
G			C				D5 
One soft sweet song is just enough to clear my.... 
 
	Cadd9 
My head 
 
CHORUS: same as last time 
 
Outro: Just switch between G and C it?s kinda confusing
