Nine Days -- Absolutely (Story of a Girl) 


I figured out this song a while ago, but since no one has put  
a decent copy on the internet I decided to step up.  This real 
nice when I play along with (or without)the actual song.  Some 
people think its played too much...I might agree, but I never 
get tired of hearing it.  If you like this tab feel free to give it  
to a friend. Also feel free to check out my webite 
www.angelfire.com/games/playersparadisefor all sorts of  
neat stuff... 

G, Dsus4, A7sus4, D, Cadd9, Em7, G/F#

Refrain: 

              G 
this is the story of a girl 

  Dsus4  
who cried a river  

     A7sus4                 D 
and drowned the whole world 

                G                 C(9) 
and while she looked so sad in photographs 

    A7sus4 
I absolutely love her 

            G  Dsus4  C(9)  G  Dsus4  C(9) (this part is tough) 
when she smiles... 



Verse: 

 G                     C(9) 
how many days in a year 

     G                            D  
she woke up with hope but she only found tears 

    G                     C(9) 
and I can be so insincere 

  G                        D  
making her promise is never for real 
    G                              C(9) 
as long as she stands there waiting 

  G                            D  
wearin the holes on the soles of her shoes 

 G                       C(9) 
how many days dissappear 

          G 
when you look in the mirror 

          D 
and say how do you choose 



Pre-Chorus: 

       Em                  G/F#   
your clothes never wear as well the next day 
           
          G                  A7sus4  
and your hair never falls in quite the same way 

    Em                G/F#                A7sus4 
but you never seem to run out of things to say 


(Refrain x 1) 
(Verse x 1) 
(Pre-Chorus x 1) 
(Refrain x 1) 
(Pre-Chorus x 1) (this leads into the guitar solo) 

Guitar Solo 

the way this is played in the song makes it nearly 
impossible to tab perfectly so a few notes may be 
missing, but this is very close.  This is also a great 
solo to improvise on -- be creative!! 

(P.S.-- I didn't figure out the lead into the solo, the tab 
below is only after the band pauses) 

e 
b

several times)

(Pre-Chorus x 1) 
(Refrain x 3) (leave out "G, Dsus4, C(9)" set and combine the 3  
refrains) 

End Riff: 

The end riff is the set of chords that you didn't play during the last  
string  
of refrain riffs 

G, Dsus4, C(9), G, Dsus4, C(9), G, Dsus4, C(9), G...fade out 

(Whenever this riff is played during the song the band switches between 
the chords quickly and doesn't play each one the same number of times. 
Listen to the song and you'll get a feel for it). 

Hope you can follow all this.  Practice and before you know it you'll  
be 
impressing your friends with those mad guitar skills. And don't forget 
about www.angelfire.com/games/playersparadise!! 
See ya later.
