BAND: 7 Mary 3
SONG: Cumbersome

Well, after listening to Seven-Mary-Three I've pretty much figured out
the basic rythm of the song Cumbersome.  It's pretty simple, actually.  
It follows a:
F# - E - B 
pattern with moderate muting of the strings

F# - 2 4 4 3 2 2
E  - 0 2 2 1 0 0
B  - 2 2 4 4 4 -

And after he sings, "Oh no, no no no" I believe it's 
B - E.  Listen to the song and you will get the basic jist of 
it.  It sounds like a great song to play unplugged.
Since I don't have the album I can't really write the lyrics out.
Have fun.  

I've also attempted to determine the bassline, although I don't have the
music with me RIGHT now...Here goes, sort of a walking bassline.

x = mute

Here is the tab for 7-mary-3 "Cumbersome"!!! I know this is right because I 
saw them play it
on TV!!! But I could have made an error while I made the tab. This tab is not 
in the standard 
format; I just made a bunch of Figs and then made a table showing the order 
to play them and 
also what guitars play them and how long they play them. I also dident mess 
around with the 
strums or the dead notes. I just put the cord. Just thought I would try it. 
Let me 
know what you think. Let me know if you post it somewhere else, so that I can 
know how 
much it spreads. And I just want you to know that I did not copy a single 
note from anyone, as
I have never seen a tab for this song!!! I learned how to play it from 
watching them on tv. 
My name and e-mail address are at the bottom of this tab.
