THE FORMAT :: DOG PROBLEMS
TABS BY BRANDON KARCIC UNLESS OTHERWISE CREDITED

This is one of my favorite albums, and I've been wishing there was more of it on UG so that
the whole world could learn it and play it and love it. So I went through the whole album,
wrote chords for what was missing, and revamped all of the chord sheets that already existed.
I hope you hardcore Format fans enjoy this one a lot.

Credit goes to several people whose tabs I borrowed or improved for this.

Intro:
C - C/B - Am - C/B

C        C/B          Am         C/B  
Ashes to ashes, some dust on the dash

C         C/B   Am  C/B
I got my cigarettes

      Fmaj7  Am       D7        Am         
But I can't find the fire, it's calming me down

C  C/B  Am C/B

C          C/B       Am            C/B 
I was just out on a night with my friends

C             C/B      Am               C/B  
You are still out on a night with your frienda

        Fmaj7  Am      D7       Am        C   C/B Am C/B
And you don't seem to tire when I'm not around


G             F                        C  C/B Am C/B
I'm under the tunnel, I'm holding my breath

C  C/B  Am  C/B

C                 C/B         Am          C/B
I searched every pocket that hung in the closet

      C              C/B         Am            C/B
Until I found some matches in a brown leather jacket

      Fmaj7 Am         D7           Am            C   C/B  Am   C/B
One I swore I'd never worn, but it once kept you warm


G         F                           C        C/B    Am   C/B
Do you remember we made love on the floor?


         Fmaj7  Am      D7   Am
And you still haven't called

     Fmaj7              Am           D7    Am
So I wait until they're closing the bars

 C   C/B    Am   C/B

G         F                       C (Let this one ring)
I made a wish but the match never lit 

(That's the end of "Matches", then starts "I'm Actual")
----------------------------------------

        C
Can we take the next hour

   C/B
and talk about me

 C/B                      Am 
Talk about me, and we'll talk about me

Am                        G              C
Talk about me, and we'll only talk about me

          C 
Can we please take this hour

    C/B
and talk about me

       C/B                  Am 
and my hatred for corporate magazines

Am                   G
you know they don't speak to me

     F G            G     Am   C/B  C
The irony is they won't speak with me

C
(I'm Actual, I'm Actual...)


VERSE 2

F   G             Am        G
I placed you on a windowsill

F     G     Am               G
Cut notches up and down the door

F       G       Am          G
My surprise, I woke up one morn

        F             G          C
In our bed, In your place lay a note; It read:


(The next part uses simple bar chord shapes, like so.)

----A----Ab/A---G-----F#-G-------

D|--7------6-----5------4----------------------------|
A|--7------7-----5------5----------------------------|
E|--5------4-----3------2----------------------------|



Am        Ab/A          G           F#/G
Baby your love it just ain't good enough

         F            G      C
I found sunlight six hours away

    Am         Ab/A         G       F#/G (let ring)
You watered me down 'til I drifted abound

F          G              C
Somewhere far from your shade


F     G         Am         G
Now I shadow my former self

F    G          Am         G
Once holy, now lonely; a chest full of


F           G       Am           G
holes; Red wax, it paints me unclear

          F                  G                 
when the big hand strikes twelve

         C (let ring)
I disappear




         Am        Ab/A              G          F#/G
and the angels are fake and they'll lie to your face

    F        G        C
Anything to keep you away

    Am         Ab/A         G        F#/G
You watered me down 'til I drifted abound


G      G        G        G

SOLO SECTION

Am      Ab/A      G      F#/G

F   G   C

Am      Ab/A      G      F#/G



      G
It's time I accept the fact


That you on your back has buried the past


         C
Can we take the next hour

    C/B
and talk about me

 C/B                     Am 
Talk about me, and we'll talk about me

Am                         G             C
Talk about me, and we'll only talk about me

         C 
Can we please take this hour

     C/B
and talk about me
       C/B                  Am 
and my hatred for corporate magazines

Am                   G
you know they don't speak to me

    F   G          G     Am   C/B  C (let the last chord ring!)
The irony is they won't speak with me

CAPO 4


INTRO & VERSE 1

C C/B Am C/B
C C/B Am C/B

C         C/B               Am          C/B
All the girls pose for the same for pictures

C         C/B               Am          C/B
All the boys got the same girls' hair

C         C/B               Am          C/B
And I am bored because I feel much older

C      C/B    Am         C/B         C
Look at me as if I got a reason to stare


PRECHORUS

         C   G    D
But you talk so loud

         C   G    D
That it calms me down, you're crying

C      C   D   D
Let's make a toast


CHORUS

G
She says she's leaving on a Sunday

Am
Oh, that leaves me one more night

C               G
Can I take you home?

              Am                     D
I know it's wrong, but I know your type

G
She says she's leaving on a Sunday

Am
I don't care, I need to know where to turn

C           G
I tried it once

                Am             D
It never caught on, I was the only one who got burned


C C/B Am C/B
C C/B Am C/B

VERSE 2

C     C/B        Am         C/B
I've read every word you've said
 
C      C/B   Am     C/B
From a poster of a cat

C     C/B          Am        C/B
Four books look across your sofa

C                C/B     Hold Am 
I thought your coffee table was more clever than that

C        C/B          Am          C/B
It gets worse once we get to her room

      C            C/B          Am       C/B
She stops and she sings, "Do do do do do do do do"

C   C/B        Am         C/B
I claim "New Religion" is my song

C           C/B   Am          C/B             C
She doesn't get it, it's all before she was born


PRECHORUS 2

         C   G    D
And you lock your door

         C   G    D
Like I've been here before I feel like

C     C   D   D
I've seen a ghost


CHORUS 2

G
She says she's leaving on a Sunday

Am
Oh, that leaves me one more night

C               G
Can I take you home?

I don't care, I need to know where to turn

C           G
I tried it once

It never caught on, I was the only one who got burned

C         D
I was the only one who got burned


BRIDGE

Em  C

Em
Suddenly between sheets and eyelids

C
I am reminded why I don't do this

Em
I fall in love far too quickly

C
I never want her to forget me

Em
When you're gone

           Am             D
Will you call, will you write?



CHORUS 3, 4, & 5

She says she's leaving on a Sunday

Song: Pick Me Up(Track 5)
Originally Tabbed by: Don Tago (recebedou@yahoo.com)
Edited and reformatted by: Brandon Karcic

Almost exactly the same as the previous tab, but I added the ambient chords over 
the intro and included the backing vocal lyrics on the third and fifth choruses.


INTRO

     D                       G
And you, you're gonna walk backwards through the room
           D
Does that mean I won't see you?
                     G
It means you'll walk backwards through the room


VERSE 1
Bm                                       G           D
Tiffany's crying, she's dying to make it out of this hell

            Em                                      A
Well I just laughed ‘cause it was my job to be her help

Bm                                            G                      D
I'm in my bedroom, I found me a corner where friends won't debate my health

              Em                                           A
Like "How can he save some summer night when he can’t save himself?"



CHORUS 1

          D
You gotta pick me up, come on and pick me

          G                         Gm
When I'm falling down you've got to pick me up



VERSE 2

Bm                                    G            D
Cut to December and how can a scalpel tear him to skin 

           Em                                                  A
Reveal the walks in the park, Lord, how can a heart come from two separate organs?

    Bm                              G                D
Are you gonna make this simple? Do you wanna make me sweet?

         Em                                     D              A
Oh, well I know I know I know I know I let you down, I let you down



CHORUS 2 & 3

          D
You gotta pick me up, come on and pick me

          G                         Gm
When I'm falling down you've got to pick me up


D

Gm

VERSE 3
 
D                       G
You, You're gonna walk backwards through the room

D                                                  G
Does that mean I won't see you? It means you walk backwards through the room

    Bm                              G                D        
Are you gonna make this simple? Do you wanna make me sweet?

         Em                                    D               A
Oh, well I know I know I know I know I let you down, I let you down



CHORUS 2 & 3

Song: Dog Problems (Track 6)
Tabbed By: An unregistered UG user who did a fantastic job
Edited and Reformatted By: Brandon Karcic

Almost entirely the same as the previous chords, save for the very beginning and a 
couple G7s that can really just be played as Gs.


PART ONE - THE BEGINNING

 C       Csus4   C
Don't you dare speak for someone you don't know.

          
They'll feel it in the back of their throat.

   Am
We know I can't construct a poem,


Cause words like girls get bored and run

           F
C'est la vie, I say "I've got so many better things"

             G
I've got nothing, you should see me,

    G              G7
I smoke myself to sleep.

                      C
And blame postmodern things I can't relate, like summer camp and coastal states.

       Am
Like alcohol and coffee beans; Dance floors and magazines.

  F
I think its safe to say I've only got myself to blame

                 G
But boys in swooping haircuts are bringing me down, taking pictures of themselves.


INTERLUDE - HORNS GALORE


C   Am   F   G


PART 2 - FINDING FLAWS IN EVERYONE

             C
And so I walk the web in search of love, but always seem to end up stuck.

       Am
I'm finding flaws in everyone, I've reached the point where all I want

       F
Is to sleep around in hopes that I will catch back up.

           G
We are parallel lines, we’re running in circles, We're never meant to cross.


           C
I'm at a loss, you were my tangerine, my pussycat, my trampoline.

        Am
Now alls I get are wincing cheeks and dog problems, I signed a lease.

F
Thinking my heart belonged at 93rd and Park.

              G
Instead I broke a girl’s heart, and flew back to Phoenix

                           G7
To finish the year as it started.



PART 3 - THE PART WHERE NATE RUESS BREAKS YOUR HEART, OR 'WAS IT WORTH IT WHEN YOU 
SLEPT WITH HIM?'


            C                                     Am         F
Can you hear me? Are you listening? This is the sound of my heart breaking.

        C                               Am         F
And I hope it's entertaining, Cause for me it’s a bitch

         C
Was it worth it when you slept with him?

                Am                F
Did you get it all out of your system?


C                Dm      
I am a man, Holding it all, 

Em                  F
I couldn’t breath, Coming across

G             Am              G    G7
I didn’t know I couldn’t give up



PART 4 - IS HE SPELLING 'BECAUSE,' OR 'BECCA'?


C
B is for believing you'd always be here for me.

Am
E is for everything, even when we see it though.

F
C, c is for seeing through you, you are a fake, which brings me

G                            G7
To A because, because, you always run away.


        C
I never finish phrases, I misspell, Open arms are prison cells.

  Am
When I said, "I hate what I've become," I lied, I hated who I was.

   F
So when you start to wonder 'bout the pain in my throat,

Then don't you ever, no never, ever, speak for someone you don't know.

A E    D             E
Flaws that you wont admit

         A             E          D       E
Yet you tell me its a sin that I don't believe in

A E       D              E
God; You traded in your cross

        A                   E         D              E
For a chance to dance with stars and now nothing is sacred


PRECHORUS 1

A  E D                        E

On how I hope that you're happy

                                 D
I hear you're somewhere in the sand

                          E
And how I wish I was an ocean

Maybe then (maybe then) I'd get to see you again

They break and they bend

            A              E
They take shape and they tend

         D           E
To get better with time, And I say:

A              E            D          E
"Who am I to work so much less to get more?

          A               E          
You all deserve what I am walking towards

        D                      E
If you want, you should move away,"


PRECHORUS 2

A E D                 E
Ooooo, This has become a weakness

A E D                  E
Ooooo, The golden state wins

  A  E D                        E
again (Ooooo) Perhaps it's time I settle down

D                                          E
Say its blue, at least that's a plus, Plus, I miss you so much


CHORUS 2

BRIDGE

A Throughout

Why am I scared of people in a room?
Why can't they see a good time are the people close to you?
Why don't I just give in, have a drink and shake some hands?
Oh ay oh, Oh ay oh

Why can't I trust anyone, no, not even me?
why don't I just give in, have a drink and shake some hands?
Oh ay oh, Oh ay oh

Profile up of who I want to be

Fool everyone, just to start over clean

Song: Dead End (Track 8)
Tabbed by: Brandon Karcic

VERSE 1

     C
Hold on, there's a hole in my heart

      Dm
Everyone can see right through me

        (Em)     F
It goes all the way to the waves

                                    G  F  G
Where my love she tried to wash it away


         C   
See we break for the summers so she can find lovers

      Dm
She thinks that they're bottles of wine

                     (Em)      F
They make you dinner and they sing you to sleep

                                        G  F  G
But by the morning find the bottle is empty

            Am
'Cause she never gives it the time

        Dm
Every bottle she finds, they don't compare

                 (Em)   F
To the ones she left behind; There is never a note

         G                         F  G
So she waits for me to come back home

CHORUS 1

                    C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                            Dm
You wish that smoke could change its color

                    F
I love it when you talk so much

                            G  F
And act like nothing went wrong

     G              C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                  Dm
We sit and find flaws in everyone

                   F
I want to keep you by my side

                    G
Holding off tidal waves


VERSE 2

       C
"Mint Car" is keeping us warm

            Dm
She lays crossed upon the bed

               (Em)     F
We are puzzles making shapes with our hands

                                  G  F  G
I take my finger, turn it into a pen

        Am
Then I run my hand down your spine

              Dm
You guess to write something profound, Something like:

                        (Em)   
"Our love will last 'til we die"

F
I say "you're good at this game"

                    G
but what I really wrote is

                   F  G
How I've yet to be saved


CHORUS 2

                    C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                            Dm
You wish that smoke could change its color

                    F
I love it when you talk so much

                            G  F
And act like nothing went wrong

     G              C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                  Dm
We sit and find flaws in everyone

                   F
I want to keep you by my side

                    G
Holding off tidal waves


G


REFRAIN

Am                   Em
I'm searching for a dead end song

Am                         Em
You wish that smoke could change its color

Dm                           G
I wanna get you right by my side

Am                 Em
I'm searching for a dead end song

Am               Em
We sit and find flaws in everyone

Dm                               G
I want to keep you right by my side


CHORUS 3

                    C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                            Dm
You wish that smoke could change its color

                    F
I love it when you talk so much

                            G  F
And act like nothing went wrong

     G              C
I'm looking for a dead end song

                  Dm
We sit and find flaws in everyone

                   F
I want to keep you by my side

                    G
Holding off tidal waves

VERSE
Nico, come back home
Show me that you care
And loves just not a flare on my sleeve
Sleep well, I pray that cardboard boxes,
Set the perfect stage.
'Cause wood grain makes all man made things seem so out of date
Life is not a play, it's what we
Make of the people we love.


CHORUS
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, why, why
Are you quick to kiss?

VERSE
She bites at blades and leaves
God damn you shrubbery
Well I?m sick of vanity plates
Should we move to the UK?
'Cause life here in the states has escaped

PRE
All the people in love
What we make of these people we love

Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, why
Are you quick to kiss?
Baby, maybe I spoke to soon
I?ll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch

VERSE
I watch her as she runs
My mother jumps the gun
She puts her in her arms
That is just like my mom
Never lets go, never lets me grow old
I wanna pay her back
But love is nothing you can tax
My family?s not rich by any means
But I feel we won the lottery, that day
The rock swallowed the girl
And I cried as cameras caught my eyes
My tears turned into butterflies
They fly away as caskets close
A new day comes you?ll wake unfold
Smile when you feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight
You feel the sunlight

CHORUS
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh why, why, why, why, why
Are you quick to kiss?
Baby, maybe I spoke to soon
I?ll touch you once you make the first move
Snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch
Oh snails see the benefits
The beauty in every inch

And don't you dare ask questions,
                 E
Just sign on the dotted line
   E                F#
Step two: throw your partner behind a desk
               A 
Will then do absolutely nothing

Song: Inches and Falling (Track 11)
Tabbed by: Brandon Karcic

Based on the tab by Sephythrox (Sephythrox@aol.com). I added a couple Dm's and 
changed the 'well well well' chords.


A  E   
I love Love 
D 	   A	D
I love being in love 
	A	      E
I don't care what it does to me 

A    
Take these tattered boxes 
that used to hold your clothes 
Break them down 
			     E
Build them back up with your bones 
All you did was construct a mess 
You're good to me when only flesh 
	A			A
You're a memory with nothing to show 

A
When we would take trips 
We swore we'd never take pictures 
				  E
Pictures only prove you can't convince 

Now I wish those photographs 
could convince you that what we had 
	A
would only turn out a negative 



A     Bm  C#m
Well well well 
   D                  Dm
If fingertips are relationships 
     D                           A			
Then I could barely carry your weight 
     Bm
If fingers are mistakes 
  D                               A
Don't use this one to point the blame 
     E
Just sing, sing 

A    E
I love love 
D        A         D
I love being in love
         A           E 
I don't care what it does to me 
	A		 E
These pills are fine to pass the time 
     D 		   A
'Til I find my new drug 
Then 
D 		A
We'll take our chances 
D		A
we'll last a month 
D		A
we'll never speak again 
(E)           A
How i love being in love 

(Interlude, A, E, A)



A
And don't pick up the line 
You're dressed to have a good time 
				   E
You don't need him, you need to be seen 
So someone else can treat you wrong
So you my love can sing this song 

A     E
I love love 
D         A       D
I love being in love 
         A         E
I don't care what it does to me

These pills are fine to pass the time

'Til I find my new drug, then  
D               A
They'll take advantage 
D                 A
I'll claim that's what i want

To be the new statistic

Take these tattered boxes 
That used to hold your clothes 
Break them down 
                              E
Build them back up with your bones 
All you did was construct a mess 
you're dead to me if love is death 
	A
You're a memory with nothing to show 


A     Bm  C#m
Well well well 
   D                  Dm
If fingertips are relationships 
	D                  A
Then maybe I could use a break 
	Bm
She smiles, She points at me 
	D
shes says:

Baby i love how you sing

So just sing

I love love

I love being in love

I don't care what it does to me

I love love

I don't care what it does to me

These pills are fine to pass the time

'Til I find my new drug 

Then

We'll take our chances

we'll rise above

we'll last until the end

How I love

Song: If Work Permits (Track 12)
Tabbed by: Brandon Karcic

Last song on the album. My personal favorite.


INTRO / THE VERSE WHERE SHE CHEATED ON HIM

E

        E
So the wind that blows across your room,
  A       
Carried cheap perfume onto your dresser,
                E                              
It rained for jewelery and for credit cards,
      A                      E
Two tickets to a film I don't remember,
      A                          
One day you'll kiss your rabbit's nose, pick up the phone,
                        E
To find I've been turned over,
     A
You grab that piece of gold,
                                       E
Only to find that the smell has taken over,
                      A
And all the things you had,
                  B7
They aren't the same
              E
As what you hold


          E
Now I'm standin' in a room,
                     A
That's filled with older folks,
                     E  
They're pleading baby listen,
         E            
And I scream as loud as anyone,
           A
But when asked to make a point,
           E
I tend to whisper
     A
Now highways turn to tidal waves,
                                            E
And they're asking me to export all of your insecurities,
           A
But that wind that blows across your room, it's gonna set the sails,
                     E    B7
And send me back to you, ooh,



CHORUS - THE MELLOW ONE
E
 Sometimes, when sailors are sailin', they,
A
 Think twice, about where they're anchorin'
    E
 And I think, I could make better use,
A
 Of my time on land,
       E
 I'll drink less,

 Cause Lord knows I could use a,
A
 Warm kiss instead of a cold goodbye
F#
 I'm writing the folks back home to tell them,
A
 Hey I'm doing all right

THE VERSE WHERE HE RECOUNTS A DARK CHILDHOOD MEMORY

         E                     A
It's a shame what your father did,
         E                   A        B
To your brothers head, he smashed it with the
 E     A    E A B
Telephone
         E                   A                   
Your mother got scared and locked the door,
           E              A    B     E       A 
You were only four, but Lord, you remember it,
C#m B                A         
    So now you're scared of love
                                                             E
I'm here to tell you love's not some fucking blood on the receiver
           A
Love is speaking in code
                                      E
It's an inside joke, love is coming home


CHORUS - THE NOT MELLOW ONE

E
 Sometimes, when sailors are sailin', they,
A
 Think twice, about where they're anchorin'
    E
 And I think, I could make better use,
A
 Of my time on land,
       E
 I'll drink less,

 Cause Lord knows I could use a,
A
 Warm kiss, Instead of a cold goodbye
F#
 I'm writing the folks back home to tell them,
A
 Hey I


THE VERSE WHERE HE'S OVER HER

                  E
Yeah I'm doing alright
                      A
Yeah I'm doin' just fine
             F#                            A
And if she seems as lonely as me, Let her sink
                  E
Yeah I'm doin' alright,
                     A
Yeah I'm doin' just fine,
            F#
And if she seems as lonely as me, let her,
  A
Sink, you let her, sink, well let her!
