Guitar Tab:Brain Problem Situation

From This Might Be A Wiki
Brain Problem Situation
They Might Be Giants

The song is highly repetitive, and the chords as they are here are pretty simple. If you can figure out what the horns are doing, it gets a lot harder. If you know the "I think maybe" part and the "On my hands, I'm looking down" part, you've got it.

(no chord)
Wake up, put on my makeup, and pick the rake up, and rake my hair

And I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I've got a Brain Problem Situation on my hands

    G7                            C7
I think, maybe, but I don't know

                                           G7                   C7
But I'm starting to feel like I've got a Brain Problem Situation  on my hands

I think, maybe, but I don't know

But I'm starting to feel like I've got a Brain Problem Situation  on my hands

       D                                    C
On my hands, I'm looking down, and I can't see what I've got 

       D                             C
On my hands there's a Brain Problem Situation 

  G                     C                     G                 C
Twenty nine inches of snow on the top of the Situation on the Brain 

           G              C                  G              C7
And the scraper I buried somewhere in the springtime will emerge 

And I think, maybe, but I don't know
But I'm starting to feel like I've got a Brain Problem Situation on my hands
I think, maybe, but I don't know
But I'm starting to feel like I've got a Brain Problem Situation in the bag

        D                              C
In the bag, in the paper bag, is the source of the call

         D                                C                           G7
It was traced to the paper bag; Yes, the call has been traced to the bag 

 (G7)                  C7
Stand up, and put our hand up

             G7                         C7
And with our eyes closed, we touch our nose 

         G7                             C7
And the cop tells us, but we don't know

                                           G7                   C7
But we're starting to feel like we got a Brain Problem Situation  on our hands 

     G7                              C7
We think, officer, but we don't know

                                           G7                   C7
But we're starting to feel like we got a Brain Problem Situation  on our hands 

        G
On our hands ...on our hands 

         G7
In the drunk tank 

               C7
We're in the drunk tank 

               G7
We're in the drunk tank 

           C7
All by ourselves 

And I think, maybe, but I don't know
But I'm starting to feel like I got a Brain Problem Situation on my hands
I think, maybe, but I don't know
But I'm starting to feel like I got a Brain Problem Situation on my hands

       G7
On my hands
