Artist:Dave Matthews Band
Name of Song:Stay (Wasting Time)
Name of Album:Before Crowded Streets, Listener Supported

This is all my own work.

This song is one of my favorite Dave songs but I couldn't figure it
out. so I listened to the cd and matched the chords until i came up with
this. It's pretty accurate and I think the most difficult part is timing.=

This song, like all of Dave's songs are barred or tuned down five frets.
You want to play the chords with your pointer and pinky finger while you
mute the rest of the chords with your thumb and ring(to mute just lay
those fingers over the chords and don't press down. If you play them you=
 hear a dull sound). If you listen to the song you will no what i mean a=
bout the pause also.

Verse:(|=3Dpause) (x=3Dmute)
----------------------
e/-x--|--x---x--x--x--
B/-x--|--x---x--x--x--
G/-10-|--10--8--7--8--  (then repeat)
D/-8--|--8---8--7--6--
A/-x--|--x---x--x--x--
E/-x--|--x---x--x--x--

On the part where it says (8,8) all you need to do is
lift up the pinky. That repeats throughout the song.
When the chorus comes play this.

Chorus:
-------------------------------------------------------
Fig 1  2    3    4|
e/-------------------------|
B/-------------------------|
G/---8---10---8---5---8---2|
D/---8---10---8---5---6---3|
A/---6---8----6---3---6---3|
E/------------------------1|

That's the chorus. When put with words its like this:
              1    2           1       =
            3
"we were just wastin time, I shall miss this thing when we all role ..,
     1       4                  (verse starts)
 what a day, i wanna stay, stay, stay, ...., stay for a while"

The verses start right at the end of "while". This song sounds alot
with a band because they can fill the awkard pauses but it is still
fun to play. Thats pretty much the whole song. If you find anything
wrong in my song our something I missed tell me and I will add it in.
