No Doubt – Suspension Without Suspense tab

This is an amazing song written by Gwen Stefani. It's off the album Return Of Saturn, which I recommend to anyone who doesn't have it.

Intro and Verse chords.

I don't know the names of these chords but they're definitely spot on.

The Intro, Verses and Chorus is fingerpicked P I M I on the 3 top strings only.

Lyrics.

Intro - Fig.1

Verse 1 - Fig.1     My divorce from dependence
                    That's when you found me
                    I was still soft
                    And we always were in trouble
                    Odds stacked against us
                    And trouble's what we are

Chorus 1 -          We get so far
Fig.2               And then it just starts rewinding
                    And the same old song
                    We're playing it again
                    Suspension without suspense

Verse 2 - Fig.1     Now that I've murdered your inspiration
                    And I forced you off
                    Do you hate me?
                    Do you want revenge?
                    I want to call you
                    But I won't

Chorus 2 - Fig.2    Repeat chorus 1

Middle - Fig.3      Oh the pessimistic protection plan
                    Moderation loving
                    I've been hardened by the circumstance
                    We knew this was coming

Chorus 3 - Fig.2    Repeat chorus 1

Chorus 4 -          We get so far
Fig.2               And then it just starts rewinding
                    And the same old song
                    We're playing it again and again
                    Suspension without suspense
                    Intentions without intent
                    But I don't want the love we have to end

                    (G. Stefani)
