Tab: "Have you seen me lately?" Counting Crows
Transcribed by Michael A. Mazur (mmazur@wpi.edu)

Note: Throughout most of the song, guitar 1 is completely on the
left channel, and guitar 2 is completely right.

Intro:
Guitar 1 plays this four times,
|--------------------|
|--------------0--0--|
|--------------9--9--|
|--2--2--------9--9--|
|--2--2--------7--7--|
|--0--0--0--0--0--0--|


On the last repeat, guitar 2 enters with:
|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|
|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|
|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--|
|--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--9--|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|

Then both guitars go to an F#m and then an A chord:
|--2--2--2--2--|--5--5--5--5--|
|--2--2--2--2--|--5--5--5--5--|
|--2--2--2--2--|--6--6--6--6--|  guitar 1 replaces the F# on the 1st
|--4--4--4--4--|--7--7--7--7--|  string with an A (xx4225)
|--------------|--0--0--0--0--|
|--------------|--------------|

Then back to the E:
Guitar 1                Guitar 2
|--------------------|-|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|
|--------------------|-|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|
|--------------9--9--|-|--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--1--| play twice
|--2--2--------9--9--|-|--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--2--|
|--2--2--------7--7--|-|--------------------------|
|--0--0--0--0--0--0--|-|--------------------------|

Verse:
Guitar 2 plays the same E F#m A progression it did in the intro
Guitar 1 plays the part tabbed out:
E      E               F#m                   A           E
|--0--|------------0--|---------------2-----|--5-----5--|--0--|

|--2--|------------2--|-------9\4-----------|-----------|--2--|
|--0--|--x---------0--|--2/9----------------|-----------|--0--|

E                E
Get away from me                         F#m
just get away from me this isn't gonna be easy
A
but I don't need you
E
believe me
you got a piece of me
but it's just a little piece of me
but I don't need anyone
and these days I feel like I'm fading away
     F#m              A                  E
like sometimes when I hear myself on the radio

D   Asus4 D      E     A (sus4)
I was out on the radio starting to change
somewhere out in America
it's starting to rain
could you tell me the things you remember about me
Bm           A       E
and have you seen me lately?

I remember me
and all the little things
that make up a memory
like she said she loved to watch me sleep
like she said,                     * (w/ fill 2)
"it's the breathing in and out and in and..."

Have you seen me lately?
