«Gift» by Sugar, from the album F.U.E.L.
Transcribed by Daniel Meijer
The main chord riff….ie the intro…is sus2 chords:
Bsus2 Dsus2
E—2————5————
B—2-2-2-2——5-5-5-5——
G—4——-4—-7——-7——
D—4————7————-
A—2————5————
E—x————-x————
Hold the chord while you play the little line on the 2nd & 3rd string. So in the verse, when I say «Bsus2» I mean the riff above.
——A>>>B— means bend note A to the pitch of B.
Lead Break:
F#5 D5 A5 E5 D5
e———————5>>>7———————
B——————————5>>>>7————
G—4>>>>6——7>>>>9——————-7>>>>9—
Bsus2 Dsus2
an’ I received this gift from you
A E D E
Pleasantly surprised, I never thought you’d realise that maybe
Bsus2 Dsus2
I have taken this from you
A E D E
If I was deserving, who am I to disagree
A E D B
How can I refuse this, even if I don’t deserve it?
And now, I give this gift to you
Could have got you anything but this will have to do
It’s how I give this gift to you
Doesn’t seem like much but it’s the best that I could do
I’m giving everything away before I go for good.
F#5 E
And once you give the gift away
D Bsus2
there’s nothing you can do about it.
F#m E
Nothing that you do or say
D Bsus2
can change the way I feel about it
F#m E
Try to look inside of me
D Bsus2
To find the gift that I am giving
F#m E
Glad you had a chance to see
D Bsus2
the gift that I’m delivering
