Version 1SONG: WEEKEND IN PARADISE ARTIST: JAMIE WEBSTER VIDEO: --/G98eJHPUv6M TAB BY: DON CZARSKI EMAIL: WEEKEND IN PARADISE JAMIE WEBSTER NOTE: This was a request for this song to be done in standard tuning. On the album version it seems as if he is playing a half step down as the chords I have sound a little brighter. As the song progresses though it sounds correct though. If I play along to a LIVE version of this song from YouTube it sounds perfect. Make sure to keep this in mind when playing and rating this tab. Lastly, Jamie Webster plays this with a capo on the 3rd fret but I left it without a capo. Capo if you want to and transpose the chords then. Based on what I have told you please do not rate this tab less then 5 stars. It is what it is. Thanks.

VERSE: A The spring is in his step on Friday afternoon E There’s a feelin’ sweepin’ through the air D All the lads are on the blower, they’ll be finishin’ soon E In your mind you’re already prepared A I’ll phone me man for sugar then I’ll phone our kid E ‘Cause he’ll cover it til I get paid D Then you’re out with all the firm an’ you’re off ya lid E Only confident, never afraid A The night draws to a close and now there’s nowhere to go E Ya turn an’ look at one of ya mates D There’s a lad he know from work and he lives alone D E E So it’s more sugar an’ a couple o’ crates BREAK: F#m F#m E E D D E Well is it one of the times when it’s all worthwhile and you’ve had a scream? E F#m F#m D Or is it burning your bridges at both ends D A E E Same old scene since you were seventeen? CHORUS: N.C. D Ah now the wheels have fallen off E It also signs of endin’ A E You’ve had enough for hours but ya carried on pretendin’ D Ya shoes have lost their shine E The convo’s lost it’s pace A E So now you’re in a taxi feelin’ feelings of disgrace D D E You’ve never got no money ’cause of all the times ya lend A Was it a pointless three day bender E E A A A Or a weekend in Paradise, my friend? VERSE: A Some can handle it no more A E E Some’ll do it forever E D Spend ya weeks walkin‘ round with ya head to the floor E No time for the news or the weather A A E E Ya first pint on a Friday, ya last gin on a Sunday mornin’ D And it all creeps up on ya in between E A No reasons why, no early warnin’ BREAK: F#m E E D D E Well is it one of the times when it’s all worthwhile and you’ve had a scream? E That’s alright E F#m F#m D Or is it burning your bridges at both ends D A E E Same old scene since you were seventeen? CHORUS: N.C. D Ah now the wheels have fallen off E It also signs of endin’ A E You’ve had enough for hours but ya carried on pretendin’ D Ya shoes have lost their shine E The convo’s lost it’s pace A E So now you’re in a taxi feelin’ feelings of disgrace D D E You’ve never got no money ’cause of all the times ya lend A Was it a pointless three day bender E A A Or a weekend in Paradise, my friend?
