	                    Stay Together For The Kids - Blink 182
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By: Emil Gasanov ([email protected])

You maybe think that I copy all the tab from tab book, but I don't think that here in Israel
they got Blink 182 tab books. And I can't order it from the web because my mum won't let me
use her credit card - she thinks if I buy something with it someone will take the number of
the card and use it.

I added time in the last parts because sometimes they more complicated and hard to hear them.

It's definitely the best song on the album and my 3rd favourite song by Blink 182, as:

1st - Adam's Song
2nd - What's My Age Again?
3rd - Stay Together For The Kids

By the way, I tabed guitar & bass for all of them (except bass for STFTK), so if you want
copy of them just e-mail me and I'll do the rest.

Key
===
h - hammer on
p - pull off
[ ] - natural harmonic
( ) - artificial harmonic


Intro
=====
Guitars A&B (w clean). After the first chorus only guitar A play it.

Verse 2 (Guitar & Piano)
========================

Piano Part
----------
I'm 90% sure about this part. This part is the hardest to tab in the song. If someone can
suggest here something I'll apreciate it. You'll have to listen very carefully to hear all the
notes that played here.

Ourto (Piano & Acoustic Guitar)
===============================

Piano Outro
-----------
In this part there are really high notes, I mean notes from 3rd octave on the piano (in the
guitar it's 4th octave because you write the notes for guitar one octave higher than they 
really sound - because it's easier to read them like that), and it almost imposible to play 
it cuz you need to play it with artificial harmonics and there are parts with high notes 
that played fast and it's very hard to play and its sound not so good. What I'm trying to 
say is that if you don't know how to play on piano, just don't mess with this, on guitar 
it's just sound bad.

By the way this song may be related to Mark, because his parents divorsed and didn't stay
together for him. Well, maybe he wished so and now he wrote a song about it (great one).
