Psychic Hearts tabs?
 
I know this song's easy but I can't seem to get the chords right. I know it's in the Pavement tuning. Does anyone know if the tabs here are correct?

I tried it but it doesn't sound right. I'm guessing I just tuned it wrong.

that makes no sense to me at all!

No idea, don't have my guitar in front of me, but...

I hate bad tabs.. like, the "electricity" by Beefheart tab that's floating around on the net.. it can't be right!

Anyway, I abso-fucking-lutely adore this song. I'm not sure why. It really doesn't change at all and it's just a really simple song that doesn't seem noteworthy. Yet maybe that's what makes it so genius. I love when Thurston goes "and I don't even know you that well."

I love that song too. It sucks that there aren't tabs for it on Chris' site. That's where I first looked; the only info there was that it was in the Pavement tuning.

I'm also not very good at tuning by ear so i used one of those cheap $15 tuners. I don't know if I tuned each string to the right octave but it was to the right note. It doesn't have an option to tune to C so I just tuned the lowest string to Dbb. Any tips on how to tune weird tunings?

does turners help you tune to alternate tunings? or just basic tuning? i have one but it doesn't like to work right on my guitar.

If there were tabs for Psychic Hearts on my website, they'd probably be the same ones you linked to. Moik had em on his site back in the day, maybe with a few supplementary fix-ups, and that's where *I* learned those songs from.. so they should be decent. Didn't starfieldroad.com have PH tabs?

isn't the song psychic hearts basically A5 to G5 repeatedly for like the whole song?

Yes.

Good song.
