Girls And Boys In School by Neon Trees Hey guys, just to preface, I know this isn't exactly, 100% how the song is played, but would be because the song is overflowing with synth, with little to no guitar to be Thus, this is how I arranged/transcribed the song for myself, to be played on one You guys can change/play it any way you want, this is just to give a rough outline, with my thrown in. All in all, awesome song from an awesome band Oh, and this my first tab, so try not to be too harsh :D ---------------------------------------------- Intro bit (synth) E----------------------------------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------------------------------| D-X-11-11-11-X-11-11-11-X-11-11-11-11-11-11----------------------------| G----------------------------------------------------------------------| B----------------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------- Verse: The only chord I'm hearing in the verse is a very affected/processed C#5, so I just strum it as a sixth string root powerchord with an 8th note feel.... ---------------------------------------------- Chorus: In the chorus, instead of going in and figuring out the chords, I just pick the melody: E-----------------------------------------------------------| A-----------------------------------------------------------| D----------6-6---6-4----------------------------------------| G-6-6-3-6-3----3----------6-3-6-3-6-3-6---3-----------------| B---------------------------------------4-------------------| E-----------------------------------------------------------| That being said, if you want a chord progression to strum, one that works (not what they do) would be: C#m questions for questions F#m I've got a question G#m would you ever dance with me like that ---------------------------------------------- End of Second Verse Synth Line (This one's REALLY buried in the mix, listen closely at just like all your paper cuts..."): E-9----------------------------------------------------------------------| A------------------------------------------------------------------------| D--9-7-6---6-7-6---------------------------------------------------------| G--------9---------------------------------------------------------------| B------------------------------------------------------------------------| E------------------------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------- Bridge: The guitar lick after "I said to this end, don't hurt your best friend...
