Little Pink Stars

O.k. this is a possible transcription of Radish's first single.

(quotes with * around them are here purely to make this transcription

fit in with all the rest of the kiegh in OLGA)

*This is my first attempt at anything so don't hate me.*

SONG: Little Pink Stars

ALBUM: Restraining Bolt

ARTIST: Ben Kweller (Radish)

TABULATURE: Eddie Campbell (Vestibule)

Intro / Chorus:

 

This is just a picked version of the intro with a G5 at the end....

(Ben uses a fancy delay(?) pedal but it sounds ok if you pick it like

this if you're like me and are poor.)

e|-----------------------------

G|-----------6----6------------

D|----2-----6-6-6---6----7----5

A|--2---2--6---4-------7----5--

E|-0------4----------5----3----

E5 C#5 D5 A5 G5

(does that look too crammed together. *Oh, well you get the picture.*)

(This pops in between the verse and chorus.)

 

*The best of luck to you.*

this comes moderately close (those are meant to be full bends on the

number 15's. H is a hammeron. P to pulloff.)

Lyrics:

Barefoot in the sand,

Wishing God would lend a hand,

Wave after wave comes crashing down,

Washing away a little more ground.

Seems to me that's how things are,

Giving and taking "Little Pink Stars"

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to feel you from the inside,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you.

Walking along with the ocean at my heels,

Loving the way the water feels,

Up in the sky something catches my eye,

As bright as a star in the northern sky.

Seems to me that's how things are,

Giving and taking "Little Pink Stars"

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you - yey yeah

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to feel you from the inside,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you.

Seems to me that's how things are,

Giving and taking "Little Pink Stars"

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you - yey yeah

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to feel you from the inside,

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you, -yey yeah

What a world - you know that you might,

I want to touch you.

I want to touch...

yey yeah

yey yeah

laaaaaaaagh

yey yeah

ha ah ha ah ha ah

yey yeah

There you go. Thanks to my brother for saying.

"y'know if you play 'Lithium' like this....."
