                         POPULAR by Nada Surf
                         --------------------


From: Mathieu Bertrane 

-Main riff:

e------------------------------------------------------
B------0-------0-------0-------0-----------------------
G------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------
A--3-3-----3-3---0-2-2---2-----------------------------
E--------------------------0-0-------------------------

(Sometime there are others notes you can hear if you listen really carefully
to the song, but you can live without them :-).....In fact, I didn't want to
write them, but remember, it's the first version)

OK here they are:

e------------------------------------------------------
B------0-------0---------------0-----------------------
G------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------------------
A--3-3-----3-3---0-2-3-2-0-----------------------------
E--------------------------0-0-------------------------


-Something you can call the Bridge:


e------------------------------------
B------------------------------------
G------5-------5-------4-------4-----
D----5---5---5---5---4---4---4---4---
A--3-------3-------2-------2---------
E------------------------------------


-here is another one bridge which is played before the chorus
(thanks to Johan Strm (ted.strom@mbox318.swipnet.se))

e-----------------------------------
B-----------------------------------
G------2-------2--------4-------4---
D----4---4---4---4----4---4---4---4-
A--3-------3--------2-------2-------
E-----------------------------------


-Chorus:

e------------------------------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------------------------------
D---77777777-55555555-77777777-55555555-33333333-3/101010--101010--
A---77777777-55555555-77777777-55555555-33333333-3/101010--101010--
E---55555555-33333333-55555555-33333333-11111111-1/8-8-8---8-8-8---


A second guitar plays:           

(when the first guitar              e---7-5-5----5-3-3--------
plays -1111...)                     B-------------------------
                                    G-------------------------
                                    D-------------------------
                                    A------------------------- 
                                    E-------------------------


-The order is: the riff, bridge, riff, bridge, riff, bridge, chorus, riff,
bridge, chorus, riff, then: 


-this other bridge

e---------------------------
B---------------------------
G--------------------4-4-2--
D-----5-5-7---5----4--------
A---3------------2----------
E---------------------------


-Then the main riff, but you must play with heavier distortion,
and the B--0-- have to be played more louder than the A--3-3..-2-2--..
OK?
-Then the third bridge (very fast):

e------------------------------
B------------------------------
G--555555555555--444444444444--
D--555555555555--444444444444--
A--333333333333--222222222222--
E------------------------------

-Then the chorus (two times), and at the end: e-----
                                              B-----
                                              G-----
                                              D--7--
                                              A--7--
                                              E--5--



Chorus 1
