Track: Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor Band: Eels CD: Electro-Shock Blues Transcribed by Bruno Linhares, based on the CAPO'd version by Piet Marcus van der Meulen (piet.marcus.van.der.meulen@cmg.nl) E-mail: mr_kite@usa.net I saw the Capo version of this song transcribed by Piet Marcus van der Meulen, but i don't think that is right. It sounds right, but those aren't the real chords. Try these out: (no capo, play only the D-G-B-e strings) Aadd9 F G F# e- --7-- --8--- --10-- --9--- B- --5-- --10-- --12-- --11-- G- --6-- --10-- --12-- --11-- D- --7-- --10-- --12-- --11-- A- --x-- --x--- --x--- --x--- E- --x-- --x--- --x--- --x--- Intro: Aadd9 - F Verse: Aadd9 - F Aadd9 - F G - F# A - F Lyrics: Laying on the bathroom floor Kitty licks my cheek once more And I could try But waking up is harder when you wanna die Walter's on the telephone Tell him I am not at home 'Cause I think that I am going To a place where I am always high My name's Elizabeth My life is shit and piss -------------------------------------------------------------------------- :||: For the benefit of Mr Kite there will be a show tonight on trampoline || Bruno Linhares | mr_kite@usa.net \||/ | brunopcl@pontocom.com.br /()\ UIN: 4037348 | mr_kite@the-beatles.com \__/ | http://members.tripod.com/~vanilla_rockets -------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track: Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor Band: Eels CD: Electro-Shock Blues Transcribed by Piet Marcus van der Meulen corrected, dare I say, or more adjusted to how I play it by Tom Carr.

It seems to be a rather difficult song.. Anyway i figured out that it's played with *two* guitars, so it's kinda difficult to play it on one guitar, i decided to tab it out for *one* guitar, so it's not *exactly* the same as the one on the cd... This tab is based on the tab by Piet Marcus van Meulen. CAPO on 8th E = 022100 C = 032010 D = 000232 Db = 003121 Picking Intro (play twice): E-|-0---2-0-|-0---2-0-|---0-3-0-0-|- B-|---0-----|---0-----|-1-------1-|- G-|---------|---------|-----------|- D-|---------|---------|-----------|- A-|---------|---------|-----------|- E-|---------|---------|-----------|- The next parts are all strumming, you can get a nice effect by using your pinkie finger to alter the chords a little during play, for example, you could play C first and then play a C while holding the 3rd square on the high e string. This may sound a bit vague, but it's really quite easy, listen to the song to hear what i mean. When strumming, only play the highest strings. Verse 1 (E-C) ------------- laying on the bathroom floor kitty licks my cheek once more Verse 2 (D-Db) --------------------- and i, i could try Verse 3 (E-C) ------------- Walter’s on the telephone telling him I am not at home Verse 4 (D-Db) --------------------- ‘cause I, think that I Verse 5 (E-C) ------------- am going to a place where I’m always high my name is Elizabeth my life is shit and piss ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ This tab was acquired from 3speed (http://3speed.beautifulfreak.org) This file may be freely distributed if nothing is altered ~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Track: Elizabeth on the Bathroom Floor Band: Eels CD: Electro-Shock Blues Transcribed by Piet Marcus van der Meulen E-mail: piet.marcus.van.der.meulen@cmg.nl Capo on 5th!
