hey look, here's another one,

Here is another tab/chord chart for a song from the
Modern Lovers' 1976 album, *The Modern Lovers.*
I would be extremely interested in hearing from
anybody with corrections, comments, etc.

Thanks,

I'm Straight

This song has pretty much the same structure throughout, like this:

E E C G (F#) E

e--0---------------|-0-------------|-0-------------|------------0----|
B--0---------------|-0-------------|-1-------------|------------0----|
G--1---------------|-1-------------|-0-------------|------------1----|
D--2---------------|-2-------------|-2-------------|------------2----|
A--2---------------|-2-------------|-3-------------|-2----------2----|
E--0---------------|-0-------------|-X-------------|-3---2--0---0----|

Basically an E C G E pattern with a little bass run between the G and
the E. Repeat this pattern for the entire song, except where there are
single chords, as in the beginning. N.C. means "no chord."


E N.C. E N.C.
I called this number three ...
C N.C.
But I, I got scared, ...
G F# E
It back in place, I put my ....

So this phone call today ...
