Arctic Monkeys Mardy Bum (2:54) Tabbed by Daniel Finn (finn.dan@gmail.com) 01:19 06/09/2005 First tab written down properly, so it's a bit scratchy. Seems like a lot of chords, but once you figure it out it's all simple progressions and patterns, nice and easy :) Am working on tabbing the lead, but will take a while as I'm only a rhythm guitarist. Anything you spot wrong, or tips to give me, email me at finn.dan@gmail.com Standard tuning: EADGBe No Capo Chords: E A D G B E D x 5 7 7 7 x F# x 9 11 11 11 x G x 10 12 12 12 x F#m x 9 11 11 10 11 Em x 7 9 9 8 7 A 5 7 7 6 5 5 G(2) 3 5 5 4 3 3 Bm 7 9 9 7 7 7 F#5 2 4 4 x x x G5 3 5 5 x x x A5 5 7 7 x x x Intro e -7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-3-3-3-3-0-0-0-0-- B -8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-2-2-2-2-- D F# G F#m Em A x2 Verse D F# Well now then Mardy Bum G I see your frown and it's like F#m Em looking down the barrel of a gun D And it goes off F# And out come all these words G F#m Oh there's a very pleasant side to you Em A A side I much prefer, it's one that Chorus G(2) A Laughs and jokes around D A Remember cuddles in the kitchen yeah Bm To get things off the ground and it was G(2) A up up and away D A oh but it's right hard to remember that Bm on a day like today when your all G(2) A argumentative and you've got the face on D F# G F#m Em A Verse 2 D F# Well now then Mardy Bum G F#m Oh I'm in trouble again Em A D aren't I?

About artist:
Arctic Monkeys achieved chart success with their first single, "I Bet You Look Good on the Dancefloor", which reached number one in the UK Singles Chart.[1] Their debut album Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not, released on 23 January 2006, was at the time the fastest-selling debut album in British music history, beating Oasis' Definitely Maybe. It remains the fastest-selling debut album for a group. It received critical acclaim, winning both the 2006 Mercury Prize[2] and the 2007 Brit Award for Best British Album. The band's second album, Favourite Worst Nightmare, was released on 23 April 2007, sold over 225,000 copies in its debut week, and was nominated for the 2007 Mercury Prize.[3] The group also picked up the award for Best British Album and Best British Group at the Brit awards in 2008.
Arctic Monkeys achieved their success through fan-made demo tapes and online file sharing.[4] They were heralded as one of the first acts to come to the public attention via the Internet, with commentators suggesting they represented the possibility of a change in the way in which new bands are promoted and marketed.[5] The band eventually signed to the independent record label Domino Records.
