Future Islands - Black rose

This song is pretty simple and, in my opinion, the best on Future Islands' new record by a long shot. Felt or rubber pick with an up-down-up-down strum pattern, the song is all quarter notes but they switch between on- and off-beat like constantly. Listen really closely for the pattern on the chorus, its sort of buried in the mix. Bass enters at 0:14 Main Riff: G|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| D|7---7---7-10-----|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| A|-------------7-8-|--8---8---8--7-8-|10---10-10-10-8-7----|------------7-8-| [x6] E|-----------------|-----------------|-------------------8-|--8---8---8-----| Chorus: G|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|-----------| D|-----------------|--------7-7-7----|---------------------|-----------| A|5---5-5---5-7-5--|5-5-5-5-------7--|7-7---7-7-7-10-10-10-|-8-8-8-7-7-| E|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|-----------| G|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| D|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| A|5---5-5---5-7-5--|5-5-5-5-7-5-0-3--|3-3---3-3-3-10---10-|-8---8-7-o-| [x2] E|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| Main Riff: G|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| D|7---7---7-10-----|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| A|-------------7-8-|--8---8---8--7-8-|10---10-10-10-8-7----|------------7-8-| [x4] E|-----------------|-----------------|-------------------8-|--8---8---8-----| Chorus: G|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|-----------| D|-----------------|--------7-7-7----|---------------------|-----------| A|5---5-5---5-7-5--|5-5-5-5-------7--|7-7---7-7-7-10-10-10-|-8-8-8-7-7-| E|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|-----------| G|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| D|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| A|5---5-5---5-7-5--|5-5-5-5-7-5-0-3--|3-3---3-3-3-10---10-|-8---8-7-7-| [x2] E|-----------------|-----------------|--------------------|-----------| Main Riff: G|-----------------|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| D|7---7---7-10-----|-----------------|---------------------|----------------| A|-------------7-8-|--8---8---8--7-8-|10---10-10-10-8-7----|------------7-8-| [x4] E|-----------------|-----------------|-------------------8-|--8---8---8-----| End With: G|---| D|7--| A|---| E|---| (Feel free to cry "Shtay, shtay, shtay!" as many times as deemed appropriate) That's all she wrote. This song's got a pretty good strutting sound to it, I love this bassline and it plays against the drums and tambourine really well. Happy playing!
