Tim I Wish You Were Born a Girl of Montreal
I found that the other tabs for this song were all bad, so I went and found them out
by listening to the song. This is my first solo tab, so if it's bad, my contact info is at
bottom.
Time Signature (Beats per measure): C (Common time) (4 beats per measure)
Tuning: Half step down.
[F]Tim, wish you were born a [Am]girl,
Wish you were born a g[A#]irl,
So [A]I could've been your[Gm] boyfriend.
I [C]know it's not [Dm]possible[A#] now.
I just [F]never met a [C]girl I like half as [A]much as [Gm]you.
And [F]we could lay around in[Am] bed, stay there all [A#]day,
Or at [A]least until the [Gm]afternoon
And [C]I could make you spa[Dm]ghetti with to[A#]mato sauce
With [F]just a touch of or[C]egano and a [A]parsley [Gm]stem.
And [F]then when you got[Am] sick, I could take the day off [A#]work.
[A]I could've made you [Gm]chicken soup, And [C]we could watch soap [Dm]operas
- oh, those [A#]TV dramas! [F]I could catch your [C]cold
and you could [A]take care of[Gm] me.
mmm[Am]mmm, If I could've met you at [F]school, or met you at[A#] work,
It would have changed [Gm]everything.
Those [C]years of losing, conf[F]usion and insecurit[A#]y,
They would have been [Gm]shared,
they would have been [Am]ea-si-[A#]er, oh-
[F]Tim, wish you were[Am] born a girl,
Wish you were born a [A#]girl,
So [A]I could've been your [Gm]fiancé.
I'm [C]not saying you can't be all these [Dm]things for [A#]me,
But it's just not the [F]same because you're a [C]man, and so am [F]I

On the solo, he sort of slides, but I can't pin-pont exactly where, so listen to the
to see how he does it.
