he Small Things
Blink 182
Enema of the State
Tabbed by Simon Mooney ([email protected])
Yes, I know this has already been tabbed! But this sounds much more accurate
and slightly easier to play fast. It's all played on one guitar from what I
hear. I was using the track from 'The Mark, Tom and Travis Show (The Enema
Strikes Back)' as my reference.
My advice is to just crank up the distortion and play it! The song is very
easy to play because it's only power chords and sing along to it. The
lyrics are not hard and are easily sung along with.
Intro/Bridge:
I am not going to tab the rhythm, you can get that from the cd, but use a
strum not all downstrokes. You can get the speed better that way :)

The small interlude after the chorus is pretty simple. As I don't know much
about time signatures, just listen to the CD to get the rhythm.

Solo
The song goes into some kind of solo, that is all palm muted.

Lyrics
All the small things
True care, truth brings
I'll take one lift
Your ride, best trip
Always, I know
You'll be at my show
Watching, waiting
Commiserating
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Late night, come home
Work sucks, I know
She left me roses by the stairs
Surprises let me know she cares
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na na
Say it ain't so, I will not go
Turn the lights off, carry me home
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill
The night will go on, my little windmill
Say it ain't so, I will not go (na na na na na na na na na na)
Turn the lights off, carry me home (na na na na na na na na na na)
Keep your head still, I'll be your thrill (na na na na na na na na na na)
The night will go on, the night will go on (na na na na na na na na na na)
My little windmill
