This tab is for the live version.
I play this song with this two riffs, and the harmonics for the second verse, i haven't figured out some parts of the song, i hope someone helps.

Verse 1 / Chorus Riff

E:--------------------------------------------
B:--------------------------------------------
G:----8----8--------------------------------
D:--------------------------------------------
A:----6----6/3----3---3---3----3\6----
E:---------------------------------------------

right before the second verse, Jamie plays a couple of time the note.

G:----8-----------------8------------------8


Verse 2

E:--------------------------------------------------------
B:-------------------(12)---------------------(12)----
G:--------------------------------------------------------
D:------(12)---------------------(12)-----------------
A:--------------------------------------------------------
E:--------------------------------------------------------

___________________________
Suha

I have not tabbed the whole song.

the Beginning is something around this.

E:-----------------------------------I
B:-----------------------------------I
G:-----------------------------------I
D:-----------------------------------I
A:---------0--0--0--0--0--0-------I
E:---------8--8--8--8--8--8-------I

then something change before the chorus.

for the chorus I play this:

E:-----x-x------------x-------------------------------------x-x---------------------------I
B:-----x-x------------x-------------------------------------x-x---------------------------I
G:-----x-x------------x-------------------------------------x-x---------------------------I
D:-----x-x------9-9-9-x---9-----9--9--8---0---------------x-x--11-11-11-----------I
A:-----x-x------7-7-7-x---7-----7--7--6---0-9-9-9--------x-x---9---9---9------------I
E:-----x-x------------x--------------------0-7-7-7---------x-x--------------------------I

timing is not accurate, but i belive the tab is.

For Poe Poe i only play these 4 chords

E A D G B E
A: 5 7 7 x x x
C: x 3 5 5 x x
G: 3 5 5 x x x
D: x 5 7 7 x x

I know this is not accurate, I've seen Jamie playing this one and he uses a capo


Hope someone finds it useful, and I hope someone helps me out.

[Isra]

for the suha part, i don't know if it is understandable, please, feel free to ask

[kevin]

id like to know the chords to i broke up. im sure i could figure them out on my own, i just havent had the motivation.

[Isra]

I broke up would be nice to play, i'd like to have a tab, it have an awesome acoustic potential, if you tab it please post it, i'll see if i can.

[Dojo Love Machine]

The album version of I Broke Up is a bitch to figure out, but when they play it live, Jamie just plays Am-C-G in a weird 3/4 pattern with the occassional G-Am-Bm thrown in.

Here's the songs I know.

Part (if not all) of the chorus to Hives Hives is C-G-Em (and then maybe back to G, I don't really remember.)

I Luv the Valley OH!

Intro (Not sure if it's right, but it's something close to this)
E------------------------------------------|
B---12---12-12-12-12-----------------|
G--------------------------14---14-14--|
D---14---14-14-14-14-----------------|
A---------------------------12---12-12-|
E------------------------------------------|


E---------------------------------------------|
B-------------------14---------------14-----|
G----12---12-12-----12-------12-----12-|


E--12---12-12-12-12-3---3-10--10-10-10-10-8---

(cont.)
A-----------------------------------------------------------|
E--12---12-12-12-12-3---3-8----8-8-8-8-10---10-|

Bridge
B---------------------------------------------------
G--12-11----11----------12-11----11--12-----
D----------14----12--------------14--------------

(cont.)
B-----------------12-12-----------------|
G--12-11----11------------14--12----|

[Isra]

xiu-xiu.tomstyle.com/hiveslive.txt

you guys should try using the "search" tool
but heres what i found

[Isra]

when I Started this thread i have already used the search tool, but nothing came up. I remember a thread about xiuxiu tabs, but it seem its no longer available, maybe you could point me there, thank you for the hives tab, you know where can i download that version?

[todd]

I figured out the Bari Sax part in Suha. Something to the effect of...


e-----------------------------------------------
b-----------------------------------------------
g-----------------------------------------------
d--2--2-2-4-2-1-2------------1----1-4-----
a----------------------2---2-2----2-----------
E-----------------------------------------------

[todd]

Oh, and Ceremony (yes, yes, it's a cover).

The beginning, under the F and C.
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------
--9--12-10-9--7--9-7-9-7-9-7--5--------
-----------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------

The "whee-ooohh" part.
-----------------------------------------------
-----8----8----------------------------------
--5----5-----7----7-------------------------
-----------------5----5----------------------
----------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------

The whole song is basically F and C.

[Isra]

I tried out your tab, and it worked great! I thought the guitar moved around more, but I guess I confused it with another melody.

And thanks for the Sad Girl tab. I've been playing it all week.

[TomLobstar]

Ale tabs please plea pla!!!

I'd try, but, on the version I have, the guitar is way too quiet. All I can hear is "SHUT UP SHUT UP!"

[FruitLoop]

a few things.....

i play "i luv the valley" w. variations on an Em chord,

e 7- 7
B 8- 8
G 9- 0
D 9- 9
A 0- 0
E 0- 0

just mess w. this for a while, then G and C as such

e 10- 8
B 12- 8
G 12- 9
D 0- 10
A 0-
E


For I broke up, the following sequence Em-G-D-C seems good enough for me, though not sure if D is 2-3-2-0-x-x or 0-3-2-0-x-x. anyway should be okay.

don'T have a guitar lying around so i can't tab 20000 deaths... nor be 100% sure of what I've written. maybe another day.

have fun,

jf.
