Gift - Sugar
Transcribed by Daniel Meijer <dm@zip.com.au>

Here's my repost, with tab stops removed from the text.

The main chord riff....ie the intro...is sus2 chords:
Bsus2 Dsus2
E>--2------------5-----------
B>-2-2-2-2------5-5-5-5------
G>-4-------4----7-------7----
D>-4------------7------------
A>-2------------5------------
E>-x-------------x-----------
Hold the chord while you play the little line on the 2nd & 3rd
string. In the verse, when I say "Bsus2" I mean the riff above.

--A>>>B-- means bend note A to the pitch of B.

Lead Break:
F#5 D5 A5 E5 D5
e---------------------5>>>7--------------------
B-----------------------------5>>>>7-----------
G--4>>>>6-----7>>>>9-------------------7>>>>9---


Bsus2 Dsus2
an' I received this gift from you
A E D E
Pleasantly surprised, I never thought you'd realise that maybe
Bsus2 Dsus2
I have taken this from you
A E D E
If I was deserving, who am I to disagree
A E D B
How can I refuse this, even if I don't deserve it?

<lead break>

And now, I give this gift to you
Could have got you anything but this will have to do
It's how I give this gift to you
Doesn't seem like much but it's the best that I could do
I'm giving everything away before I go for good.

<lead break>

F#5 E
And once you give the gift away
D Bsus2
there's nothing you can do about it.
F#m E
Nothing that you do or say
D Bsus2
can change the way I feel about it
F#m E
Try to look inside of me
D Bsus2
To find the gift that I am giving
F#m E
Glad you had a chance to see
D Bsus2
the gift that I'm delivering

<lead break>
<repeat lead break w/bass playing alternate root notes for the chords>
<end on F#m>
