What I Am - Edie Brickell
------------------------------



Tabbed by Howard Wright
H.Wright@astro.cf.ac.uk

Can't remember the name of the album
it's from, but it's the one with the
child-like colourful drawings of the
band on the front.





Intro/Main Riff :
------------------

This is all based on the sus2 shape :

EADGBE
x24422

Bsus2

Just move it up two D, then down to A, then back to B.


E-----------------------------5-------------------------------2----
B---------2----2--------5------------------------0------------2----
G---------4----4--------------------------2----2---------4---------
D---------4----4------7-------------------2--2---------4-----------
A--2--2-2----2------5------5-------0-0-0-------------2------2------
E------------------------------------------------------------------



Verse :
--------

Keep repeating the main riff over these words :


I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean

(Repeat once)

Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box
Religion is the smile on a dog
I'm not aware of too many things
I know what I know if you know what I mean
De-doo yeah


Chorus:
--------

Em D
Chuck me in the shallow water

Em D
Before I get too deep

(Repeat once - I think ..)


Then back to the main riff.





The whole song is just these two parts - the sus2 riff
alternating with Em and D for the chorus.

There's a little lead line on guitar over the chorus :


Em D

E---12---15---12-----12---------14---12------
B----------------15------15--15----------15--
G--------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------

Chuck me in the shallow water


That's about it !
