ALANIS MORISSETTE - "You Oughta Know" Tablature

Official ALANIS MORISSETTE Tablature & Sheet Music »

NOTE!: I FOUND THIS TAB FROM THE WEB AND FOUND OUT THAT THIS ISN'T COMPLETLY RIGHT.
I DON'T KNOW WHO IS ORIGINALY MADE THIS TAB AND THAT'S WHY I CAN'T THANK HIM/HER
FOR THIS WORK. I HAVE ADDED AND MADE FEW CORRECTIONS HERE AND I THINK THAT THIS IS
NOW VERY, VERY CLOSE TO PERFECT.

BY THE WAY, FLEA IS ON BASS ON THIS ONE.


REMEMBER THAT THE RHYTM IS MORE THAN IMPORTANT ON THIS SONG!


Tabber: I don't know
Tab corrections: Meelis "Gains" Saard (e-mail address: m_saard@hotmail.com)



Notation legend: h = hammer on; p = pull off;
/ = slide up; *x* = pluck note x (hard)

VERSE 1

I want you to know that I'm happy for you.
