Reality Bites Theme

"Bed of Roses" by the Indians 
from the soundtrack to _Reality Bites_ 

This is a fairly simple song, with three discrete parts: one behind the verses 
and chorus, one behind the bridge, and a third before the solo. 

Part I: 

--2--2--------3-----3--3-3--------------- 
--3--3--------3-----3--3-3----3-3--3-3--- 
--2--2--2-----0-----0--0-0----2-2--0-0--- 
--0--0--0--2--2--2--0--0-0----3-3--2-2--- 
-----------3-----3--2--2-2--------------- 
--------------------3--3-3--------------- 

Just play that over and over behind the verses ("Some people...") and the  
chorus ("No bed of roses"). 

Part II: 

-------1----3--|-------1----3-- 
--2----1----3--|--2----1----3-- 
--2----2----0--|--2----2----0-- 
--2----3----0--|--2----3----0-- 
--0----3----2--|--0----3----2-- 
-------1----3--|-------1----3-- 

OK, that was overkill. This goes behind the bridge: "Life/It can lift you up/ 
It can drag you down/Life don't have to be..." 

Part III: 

---------------------|-----------------|-------------3-3------| 
---------------------|-----------------|-------------3-3--3-5-|

Then the rhythm guitar goes back to Part I, while the lead guitar starts  
soloing in Dm pentatonic at the 10th fret.

Subject: TAB: Juliana Hatfield - "Spin The Bottle" 


           Here's a great little song (by an equally great 
           little band) off of "Become What You Are" and  
           the "Reality Bites" soundtrack. Tap your pick 
           on muffled strings to get the effect from the 
           intro. The song's all chords but I threw in 
           a few tab parts if you need them...
