I'm trying to learn Fat Lip on guitar by Sum 41. I tried tabs, since I know how to read that.


Unfortunately, only the intro sounds the same. The rest of the song sounds like a completely different song. Am I doing something wrong?

I tried youtubing this; and I found the most professional video on it. However, many of the commenters say that he's doing it wrong. Help?

EDIT: I've only taken group lessons, and they didn't even teach chords. So now I'm learning of tablature, and that seems to be working fine.

It depends, is it an acoustic or electric?

Tis electric. =]

I've actually figured out how to play Fat Lip now. But I'm still wondering why it sounds different on tabs.

EDIT: Even though I have the hang of it, it still sounds different in some parts. D:

Well, I don't really know why that'd be, but I don't play guitar very well either. lol I tried to learn Whatsername by Green Day before though.
Anyway!! Moving on...
Could it be that:
- You got bass tabs instead of guitar tabs?
- They have more than one guitar playing, so with just one guitar it may sound different?
Hmm. Most perplexing.
