Name: Jon Aleman
Tabs: This is a song of the new Matchbox Twenty album mad season by
matchbox twenty.
If you don’t have it, get it, it is absolutely amazing.
This song is Black and White People, it’s accompanied by a bunch of
horns
and such so it’s best to just play along with the CD. Standard
tuning... no capo.

e--3-3-1-3-3-1-3-8-7-5-5-3-3-3-1-3-8-6-8-10-3-1-3-1-3-3-1-3-8-7-5--

VERSE 1:
G C G C
One more day down, Everybody has those days
G C G C
Where one soft sweet song is just enough to clear my head
In between "head" and the chord change is this on horns:
E
:3-3-3-1-1-1-1-2-3
G C
Fall on real life, (fall on real life)
G C
Is anybody left here sane?
Em D5 Cadd9
And we’ll slide on over, the accept fate
G
Man it’s bound to be a powerful thing
CHORUS:
G C
And if it’s just that you’re weak, can we talk about it?
G C
It’s gettin so damn creepy just nursing this
D5
Ghost of a chance
Cadd9
The fiction, the romance, and the Technicolor dreams
G C G C
Black and white people
VERSE 2:
G C
One boy headstrong
G C
He thinks everything here is just plain
G C G C
He’s pushed down so hard you can hear him start to sink
G C G
And it’s one last round of this petty conversation
C Em
You hold on boy, cuz you won’t go down like this
D5 Cadd9
You just roll on over and lay down till it’s more that you can take
CHORUS: same as last time
The solo (with horns) is as follows:
E
-7-5-7-5-7-5-0-3-5-3-3-2-0-2-3-2
E
-7-5-7-5-7-5-0-3-2-3-3-2-2-0-2-3
E
-2-3-7-5-5-3-5-7
That little guitar thing in between solo and next verse:
e----3--------------------
B-----3-------3----------
G--------0---------------
G C G C
So one more day down, everybody’s changing
G C D5
One soft sweet song is just enough to clear my....
Cadd9
My head
CHORUS: same as last time
Outro: Just switch between G and C, it’s kinda confusing
