Artist: Built to Spill
Album: Keep It Like A Secret
Song: Carry the Zero
Tabbed by: justin@indieguitartabs.com
The solo is played on the B string, so I only tabbed that string.
I'm not much for timing, so you'll have to get the hang of it yourself.
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
I'm not knocking your want to carry that home
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
Took it with you when you moved and got it broke
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
Found the pieces, we counted them all alone
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
Didn't add up, forgot to carry a zero

I can't be your apologist very long
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
I'm surprised that you'd want to carry that on
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
Count your blemishes you can't they're all gone
Amaj7 E B7 F#m
I can't see your response putting them back on
Amaj7 E B7
Like they're waiting for your guard to fall
F#m Amaj7
So they can see it all
E
And you're so occupied with what
B7 F#m
other persons are occupied with
Amaj7
And vice versa
E B7 F#m
And you've become what you thought was dumb
Amaj7
A fraction of the sum
E B7
Yeah you've become, yeah you have become,
F#m
A fraction of the sum
Amaj7
the middle and the front
And now it's coming back
E
hasn't come too far
Amaj7
I was trying to help but
E
I guess I pushed too hard
Amaj7
And now we can't even touch it
E
'fraid it'll fall apart
