I Slept With Someone In Fall Out Boy And All I Got Was This Stupid Song Written About Me (ver 5) by Fall Out Boy
Alright, this is my first tab, and while doing it, I've realized a couple of important things.
I don't think there is ever going to be a perfect tab of anything, and as long as the
is present, different symbology among tab is acceptable. No band plays a song the same way
(at least live). There are always minor differences, and overall, as long as the song
the same when played, I think it's right. Also, there are always going to be
in opinion on what a 'correct tab' is. I'll try and improve this tab (as well as my
which I may submit) when I see that something sounds better than what I've submitted as long
I don't get messages saying "U suck" etc, etc. And with that, here, we, go!
Here's the symbols I use in this tab and their usage:
G# = (Guitar Number) (Which guitar is playing the part.)
x> = Sustain (Strike note x and let ring.)
x/y = Slide (Slide from note x to note y.)
^ = Staccato (Rather than strike notes one right after another,
strike the note, then mute it, then proceed to
the next note.)
. = Palm Mute (Strike note at the line where the . is located
while using your palm to create less of a sustain
and more 'chunky' sound.)
x# = (Times Through) (Play this part # times.)
s = Slight (This note should barely be heard due to the quickness
of the notes after. Similar to "x".)
P# = (Portion Number) (This is used if a portion of a part is too
long to fit in one line.)
+ = Harmonic (Strike the note while resting fingers lightly above
the strings.)
/? = Exaggerated Slide (Do ? while sliding fingers lightly above
the strings up and down on the fret
board.)
xhy = Hammer-On (Strike note at x then use another finger to go
up on the fretboard, using the sustain to
create the note at y rather than another strike.)
xpy = Pull-Off (Strike note at x then pull finger off fretboard,
using the sustain to create the note at y rather
than another strike.)
I never have taken a guitar lesson in my life, so the terminology above may be wrong.

A few other notes also:
This song is in DROP D TUNING.

ARE IDENTICAL.
I can't tell you how many ways I've seen this song played, but you get the idea. I'm
taught in guitar, but the thing here is that basically, you can change your finger position
some of the chords if it feels better for you. And of course, always remember... YOU ARE
THE SONG, NOT THE BAND. YOU HAVE CREATIVE FREEDOM TO DO INPUT YOUR OWN LITTLE
IN OR TO CHANGE THE SOLO AROUND.
