I Have Never Written A tab before nor will this look as pretty as yours
do on the Tab page but this is how I think Alcohol Off of Becks single
should go. Beck is actually in tune for this! I strongly suggest trying
to read what I have written and listen to the song while playing!

Verse: 
        D C G C A C G A(Don't strum the open low E chord with any of the
chords until the end when you pluck it. You'll understand when you
listen to the song)
  
Chorus (if that's what you want to call it this part is hard to
explain): 
E D A D A 
go into B7 and pluck the B string then play B7 
pluck F# and then play B7 chord 
then repeat E D A D A 
pluck B string play B7 chord 
pluck F# string then play B7 
pluck G then play G chord 
pluck open A string hammer down on B pluck B play B7 
pluck F# play B7 
Pluck G string play G chord string 
pluck E string release and let open D resonate  
pluck B let open A resonate 
go back and pluck B string play B7 chord 
pluck F# then Go Back into the Verse chords

Well that was a Bitch to explain and I hope you understand. Take my
advice and listen while you play this will help on learning this
wonderful song! 

Here are the lyrics:

Alcohol leaving me dry 
now it is time for pie
taking them as they come 
Alcohol please give me some
