Portions for Foxes
Rilo Kiley
From the Album "More Adventurous" (2004)
Tabbed by Matthew Taylor (mrt577@hotmail.com or mrtaylor@ucsd.edu)
Please email me if you have any comments or suggestions...
I heard this song on the radio earlier today and had it stuck in my head
all day. It's three seperate guitar parts I think, so I've tried to
simplify it to one so you can play and sing along on an acoustic.
STANDARD TUNING
CHORDS - I don't know what you actually call some of these chords, so I
made up names where appropriate...
D5 A5 G5 D A G B5 Db5 E5 F#5* G5* A5*
e 0 0 0 2 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0
B 0 0 0 3 2 3 0 0 0 0 0 0
G 7 0 0 2 2 0 4 6 9 11 12 14
D 7 7 5 0 2 0 4 6 9 11 12 14
A 5 7 5 0 0 2 2 4 7 9 10 12
E 0 5 3 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0

VERSE
D5 A5
There's blood in my mouth 'cause I've been biting my tongue all week
G5 D5
I keep on talkin' trash but I never say anything
And the talkin' leads to touchin'
A5
and the touchin' leads to sex
G5 D5
and then there is no mystery left
CHORUS
D
And it's bad news
A
Baby I'm bad news
G D
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news

VERSE
D5 A5
I know I'm alone if I'm with or without you
G5 D5
but just bein' around you offers me another form of relief
When the lonliness leads to bad dreams
A5
and the bad dreams lead me to callin' you
G5 D5
and I call you and say "C'MERE!"
CHORUS
D
And it's bad news
A
Baby I'm bad news
G D
I'm just bad news, bad news, bad news
And it's bad news
A
Baby it's bad news
G D
It's just bad news, bad news, bad news
BRIDGE
B5 Db5 D5 A5
'Cause you're just damage con-trol (Palm mute this part)
B5 Db5 D5 A5 D5
for a walking corpse like me - like you
INTERLUDE
D5 E5 D5 Db5 B5 Db5 D5 E5
BACK TO BRIDGE
A5 Db5 D5
'Cause we'll all be
E5 F#5* E5 D5
Portions for foxes
D5 Db5
Yeah we'll all be

VERSE
D5
There's a pretty young thing in front of you (Play this part softly)
A5
and she's real pretty and she's real into you
G5 D5
and then she's sleepin' inside of you
and the talkin' leads to touchin'
A5
and the touchin' leads to sex
G5 D5
and then there is no mystery left
CHORUS
D
And it's bad news
A
I don't blame you
G D
I do the same thing I get lonely too
And you're bad news
A
My friends tell me to leave you
G D
That you're bad news, bad news, bad news
OUTRO
You're bad news
G
Baby you're bad news
D
and you're bad news
G
Baby you're bad news
D
and you're bad news
G
I don't care I like you
D
and you're bad news
G
I don't care I like you

I like you

There's an acoustic version from a recent show on youtube (Henry Miller Memorial Library). The bridge doesn't quite match up, or maybe she's playing variations? Hell, I have no idea.
But does anyone else?
