"Payphone" by M2M. From the album "The Big Room" (2002). Tabbed by Medalion (medalionemissary@hotmail.com). This is a piano song, you can barely hear the guitar in this song. So I apologise if the guitar "riffs" don't sound exactly like the song, because they are piano parts actually. Intro/verse (First is acapella singing the nah nah nah parts in Am7, Am7, A, A manner...) @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ Piano riff for guitar 1: @ Am7 @ B--1- @ G-0-- (let them ring) @ @ Piano riff for guitar 1b: @ Am7 @ B-1- @ G--0 (let them ring) @ @ Piano riff for guitar 2: @ A @ B--2 @ G-2- (let them ring) @ @ Piano riff for guitar 2b: @ B-2- @ G--2 (let them ring) @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ (Then the piano and acoustic, and bass kicks in...) Am7 *Piano riff for guitar 1* Nah nah nah nah nah Am7 *Piano riff for guitar 1b* Nah nah nah nah nah A *Piano riff for guitar 2* Nah nah nah nah nah A *Piano riff for guitar 2b* Nah nah nah nah nah ( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/m/m2m/payphone_tab.html ) Am7 *riff 1* *riff 1b* A A Am7... Just cry, you don't have to hide it from me, rely on me (rely on me) Am7 Am7 *riff 2* *riff 2b* A Just cry, (just cry) even if you don't know why, rely on me Chorus: G D A G D A That's what you said but I don't know, I'm walking here so all alone G D A G D I wanna hear your voice right now, I'm looking for it all around A G D A (then quickly back to Am7 A progression with the nah nah nah's) I really need to find a paaaaay-phooooooooone... Piano Solo tabbed for guitar (may not be 100% correct but is very close): Am7 A Am7 A
e----|-5-5-5------------|----------|----|-5-5-5------------ (play notes softly, and let them ring!)
