Lost Cause


By Beck
>From the album: Sea Change


Hello everyone. This song is from Beck's latest album, Sea Change, which is 
quite the holy-crap-I'm-so-depressed-because-my-girl-left-me album. I 
thought this song was awesome to have an ex- listen to. I have the guitar 
part all tabbed out (as per my own interpertation), and it should all be 
there. I have the song progression  below and the lyrics, but if you have 
the album, you can just listen to it, and figure that part out for yourself. 
I was trying to make this as complete as possible, so this should be about 
it for the guitar part of the song. (Since the guitar is the biggest part, 
you should be able to cover the song with just this part). Enjoy!

As far as playing tips go, the only thing to mention is that when playing 
the very first chord, (an fmaj7 chord, used a LOT in the song) I use my 
thumb on that F on the lowest string. Maybe that's cheating, but it is by 
far the easiest way to play it.

This is also my first tab. Let me know what you think!
