Artist/Band: Cledus T Judd Tabs
Song: Shania I'm Broke! Tab
Shania I'm Broke
parody of "Honey I'm Home" by Twain/Lange
new lyrics by Cledus T. Judd and Chris Clark
Credit goes to theLeper's tab of "Honey I'm Home." Any confusion is my fault.
NOTE: Strumming pattern based on syllables. For example...my TRUCK won't CRANK, I owe
the BANK. Mute on CRANK and BANK. You can, of course, use the whole chord if you wish.
LICK 1 (E):
E--------x
B--------x
G--------x
D--2--2--2
A--2--2--2
E--0--2--0
INTRO: Vocalize the drum sounds in a wacky and creative manner (listen to record; I can't
spell it out). Do this over LICK 1.
(SPOKEN): Let's get jiggy with it
LICK 2:
A E A E A E A B7
E--------x----------x----------x----------x
B--------x----------x----------x----------x
G--2--2--x----2--2--x----2--2--x----2--2--2 DO THIS TWICE
D--2--2--2----2--2--2----2--2--2----2--2--1
A--0--0--2----0--0--2----0--0--2----0--0--2
E--------0----------0----------0-----------
