This sounds pathetic, but I know how to play most of the Features songs from going to so many shows. The guitar parts are all fairly simple but cleverly written. I don't really know how I would go about sharing that information though.

Okay, here's Thursday first.
The little 'riff' that's used so much in the song is just
A--6-6-7-6-6-6-7-6-6-6-7----1-1-2-1-1-1-2---6-6-7-6
E--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7----2-2-2-2-2-2-2---7-7-7-7
This is not the exact number of times, etc, but those are the notes of the riff. You can figure out the strum pattern, I think.
The chorus is just:
E
LaDaDaDa
B
LaDaDaDa
F#
LaDaDaaaaaaa
B
LaDaDaDa
This is basically the entire song.

33 1/3
The basic chords of the verses are G-C-Am-C
The intro is Matt playing these as open chords further up the neck. The intro chords are:
G C Am C
E X O O O
B O O 13 O
G O O 14 O
D O 14 14 14
A 14 15 O 15
E 15 X X X
After 2 times of doing that, the band comes in and the chords are played in normal position back down the neck. The chords for the verses are, I repeatL
G-C-Am-C
The prechorus is:
Am G D
But surely, that is untrue, what would I do
Am G
See my girlfriend, loves my LPs,
D
more than she loves me
The chorus:
G C
So with a speed of 33
Am C
and one third I will be
G C
With a speed of 33
Am C
and one third I will be
Am
The happiest person
G
The happiest person
Am
The happiest person
C G C Am C repeat
The happiest person that I know_______
Some of this, i think is arpeggios involving the bass strings.
Anyway, ghostflower, I hope this helps. I know roadie knows 33 1/3, so maybe if I'm wrong he can correst me.

lawnwrangler, you're great at guitar. You remind me of a young Thurston Moore. You just need to get a guitar that doesn't suck quite so bad.

yeah, the brief period of time i heard you playing a six-stringed guitar, or even five for that matter, sounded great. who would've thought ms. carroll and the wrangler could switch positions and be so successful? more power to you.

If I am as familiar with the Sneaky Eaters' catalog as I think I am, I think that what Ben Patton played on the recording of that song was quite different from what was played live. I don't know how to play either.
