I found a transcription of this song at Nevada, but it needed a capo.  My 
version doesn't.  Also, my intro riff transcription is different.  
Anyway, enjoy!

Someone requested this a week or so ago -- sorry, it took awhile to chart:


		SOMETHING'S ALWAYS WRONG       - Toad the Wet Sprocket

We always say,   it won't be long,   oh, ...
(see INTRO Tab)


Another game....of putting things aside
As if we'll come....back to them sometime               (same chords as
A brace of hope....a pride of innocence                    1st verse)
And you would say....something has gone wrong

  C     G             D              C     G        D   
Again,   it seems we meet,   in ...
           C    G             D               Em          D     A/C#bass
We always say,   it won't be long,   ...


C   D   Bm   Em   D/F#bass   /   C   D   Em   D    A/C#bass          

(play above progression twice, with vocal 'ooh's and 'aay's)
         

      C     G             D              C     G        D
And again,   it seems we meet,   ...
           C    G             D               Em          D     Cadd9   
We always say,   it won't be long...
 Em	     D     Cadd9     Em          C      D    Dsus4 D
Something's always wrong,   ...


(play INTRO Tab, then verse progression twice to close)

----

That 'A/C#bass' chord is played like this:  x4222x , or add the 'A'
bass note, like so:  54222x.  Also, leading into the chorus, try a
variation of opening up the treble strings, like this:  542000.


Cool song -- hope you like my arrangement!
