Life Is a Scream
Song: Life Is A Scream
Artist: Violent Femmes
Album: Why Do Birds Sing?
Transcribed by Wes Torres
Notes: This is a very simple song. Basically two chords. Another TAB I
saw used E5 and D5 but I believe it is A5 and D5. The Bass just
plays the root notes. In between each verse they jam over D.
intro:

A5
she said to me, Oh, I don't know what you mean
D5
All I'm trying to do is trying to make your scene
A5
I said to her no way baby life Ain't what it seems
D5
Well don't you know baby that life is a scream?
(no chords)
AAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!
A5
She came up to me in her high fashion and sheen
D5
well don't you know she was trying to come clean
A5
I said to her no way baby life Ain't what it seems
D5
Well don't you know baby that life is a scream?
(no chords)
AAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!
A5
She said to me oh, I love it when you're mean
D5
don't you know it's boring when it's quiet and serene
A5
I said to her no way baby life Ain't what it seems
D5
can't you get it through your head that life is a scream?
(no chord)
AAAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!
