Doughnut Song

I don't have all the parts to this song. I'm missing both the

acoustic twelve string part of the song as well as Tori's piano part. Anyone

that wants to transcribe either of those parts is guaranteed a receptive

audience(at least one member,that is). I did, however, work out the little

background piece that starts off after Tori says "well you'll never gain

weight from a doughnut hole." In the liner notes it is referred to as "HA HA

guitar" and it's recognizable because it sounds more like a synthesizer than

a guitar. I could be wrong, but I think it's played on the album in a manner

similar to what follows.

Repeat this part at varied intervals until the end of the song(you'll have

to listen to the music to figure out exactly where). I don't really need to

reprint the lyrics here because they're included in the cd booklet.

Furthermore,I just got this album this morning at midnight when it came out

in the U.S. so I haven't really had time to sit down and mull over whether

or not this is entirely correct. So there may be some mistakes. If you find

any, or if you just have comments, questions or additions, write me at

By the way, I worked out the harpsichord riff to "Professional

Widow" this morning as well. I probably won't post it until I have more time

to work out the rest of the song but I'll be glad to give the riff to anyone

who just can't wait. E-mail me if you are one of those people. In the

meantime, have fun with the post.
