This is a pretty easy song. it's mostly
power chords and octives. It's a lot of
fun tho play though. I've enjoyed it, and
I hope you will. Enjoy!
Intro:
E---------------------------------5-5-----------5-5--|
B--------------5--------5-5-55-4-4---5-5-55-4-4------|
G-4---6-1----2---4-2---------------------------------|
D-----------2----------------------------------------|
A----------------------------------------------------|
E----------------------------------------------------|
Verse:
E---------------------|
B---------------------|
G-4-4-4-4--3-3--8-8-8-|
D-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A-2-2-2-2--1-1--6-6-6-|
E---------------------|
Repeat 4 times at the begining, and 2 times in-between the words
(the x's mean that it's an octive. mute that sring with a finger)
then, during the words, do this:
E-----------------------------------------------------xxxxxx-|
B-----------------------------------------------------xxxxxx-|
G-15-15-15-15--12-12-12-12--10-10--15-15-15-15--12-12-xxxxxx-|
Dxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxx
A-12-12-12-12--10-10-10-10--8-8----12-12-12-12--10-10-xxxxxx-|
E-----------------------------------------------------xxxxxx-|
This one's an octive, too. don't play the middle string
Also, where you see the x's at the end, thet means to
play all the strings, but put hand over them to mute it.
you know, to make a "pht pht pht" sound.
then comes the Chorus
Chorus:
E-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx
B-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx
G-4=>6-6-4-6-xxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-|
D-xxxxxxxxxx-2--2-2-2-xxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx-|
A-2=>4-4-2-4----------2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4--|
E-xxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxx---------2-2-2-2--|
the strings with x's you don't play
Repeat that 3 times, but the last time, add-
E-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx
B-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx
G-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx
D-7-7-7-7-7--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-7-7-7-7-7-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-7-7-7-7-7-9-xxxxxxx-|
A-5-5-5-5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-7-xxxxxxx-|
E-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxx
the last x's you do that thing were you mute the strings
with your hand again
you keep on repeating that until you reach thr bridge where
he sings about how we've made a mess of love. for that,
you play-
Bridge:
E----------------------------------|
B----------------------------------|
G-4-4-4-4-6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4-3-3-8-8--|
D-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-|
A-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-2-2-2-2-1-1-6-6--|
E-3-3-3-3-5-5-5-5------------------|
you repeat that 3 times, but the last time you repeat the first two chords
3 times, and the octives 2 times
and that's the song
one other thing you can do (if you're feeling lazy)
you can play E and E(bs) instead of the intro actives ans shown below
E E(bs)

D-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
A-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-|
