Subject: TAB:"Didgeriblues" by violent femmes

This song is relatively easy to play but that doesn't stop it from
sounding cool. It's highly unlikely that I could have screwed up this
transcription given the simplicity of the song. Nonetheless,
corrections,comments or questions are still welcome at meunier.1@osu.edu
Have fun with it.

"Didgeriblues"(Gordon Gano,Brian Ritchie)

Performed by the violent femmes on "ROCK!!!"(1995)

That's basically it. Just play that until the end of the song and then end
on something like this:

The lyrics go like this:

Once I knew a dude who blew the didgeridoo
He knew a girl who he decided to woo too
Under her balcony with a didgeridoo
and did she know you who do the didgeridoo too
if you knew she'd do, who do the didgeridoo

Then a baby came one day
and Daddy would stay by the cradle to play
koochie koochie koo(2x)
on his trusty didgeridoo
and did she know you who do the didgeridoo too
if you knew she'd do who do the digeridoo

When A & R Man heard that rumble
he signed him up man with quite a little bundle
Made a record, in L.A.
where I hear the people still will say
damn, that cat, he really blew
He knew what to do on the didgeridoo

Now all over the world this song debuts
it's hitting the charts
all number ones and number twos
This song has swept the nations
The didgeridooblues

Bet that she would love it too
if you could do the didgeridoo
And I bet that she would love you too
if she knew you could do the didgeridoo(2x)
(change riff)
if she knew you who blew the didgeridoo
