Sugarcube

To start,  play E, but from the 12th fret position with no bar (don't hit all the strings).
Step back down to the 11th fret with your first finger.

e|-------| played |-------|
B|-------| lots,  |-------|
G|--13---|          |--11---|
D|--14---| then   |--14---|
A|--14---|          |--14---|
E|-------|          |-------|

This's called an E/B into a Bsus4, I guess.
Listen to the song for the timing.

E/B  Bsus4 x2

Next, E (played normal, open 022100), then slide into an A, no bar (go ahead and hit
all the strings, though).  Do that or lift your fingers off the 5th and 4th strings and put them on the second frets of the 4th and 3rd strings, to make a Asus2.

E   A


E                         A
Whatever you want from me,

E                         A
whatever you want I'll do.

E                              A
Try to squeeze a drop of blood,

E                A
from a sugarcube.

Play the break like so.

A  B  F#m  Abm

E  A

E                      A
Try to be more assured,

E                          A
try to be more right there.

E                      A
Try to be less uptight,

E                    A
try to be more aware.

E                         A
Whatever you want from me,

E                            A
is what I want to do for you.

E                            A
Sweeter than a drop of blood,

E                A
from a sugarcube.


A  B  F#m  Abm

F#m  Abm

E                  A


A B  F#m    Abm
And though I like to act the part of being tough,

F#m    Abm          A
I crumble like a sugarcube,

B
for you!


Do the intro thing again.

E/B  Bsus4 x2


A      B
Whatever you want from me,

F#m   Abm
whatever you want I'll do,

E              A
and I will try!

E   A

A         B
Whatever you want from me,

F#m  Abm
whatever you want I'll do!

E                              A
Try to squeeze a drop of blood,

E                       A
squeeze a drop of blood,

E               A
from a sugarcube.


End on E.
