This is for a friend of mine
and the other 7 people who asked me for it.
Intro
E|-----------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------|
G|-2-2-4b-4b-4b-rb~--2-2-4b-4b-rb-2~-|
D|-----------------------------------|
A|-----------------------------------|
E|-----------------------------------|x2
Now the F#m chord can be played as F#5 if you have a keyboard player play the F#m (like
track), but, if you're jamming to the record by yourself you'll have to play it like this:
E|-2-|
B|-2-|
G|-2-|
D|-4-|
A|-4-|
E|-2-|
ThF#me other chords are shuffled and are best played with the root and fifth, eg:
E|----------|
B|----------|
G|----------|
D|-------7--|
A|-7--2--5--|
E|-5--0-----|
A E D
This is the way THE VERSE goes...
DLiving isn't easy, Efeeling bright and breezy
F#mEverybody has to try
DSeeing is believing, Enever show the reason Awhy
DEven when we grow up Eand our bodies slow up, F#mno, no, no
We Dthink again but Edo we understand' A
This is the way THE CHORUS goes...
That's the way it Egoes, oh everybody Aknows
That you can't surEvive if you ain't got Adrive
Those velvet Dwings can't help you Afly
Those velvet Dwings won't always help you to get Eby
But you must carry Aon
This is the way THE BRIDGE goes...
F#mI haven't told any secrets
I Aswore not to tell any lies
F#mSomething inside me is saying
DThat's the way it goes, Ethat's the way it goes
For the bridge you will find this riff helpfull:
Use loads of overdrive and distortion...
E|---12-9-|
B|--------|
G|-9------|
D|--------|
A|--------|
E|--------|
I like to call this the middle section
(even though it isn't)
Those velvet Dwings can't help you Afly
Those velvet Dwings won't always help you to get Eby
But you must carry Aon
Now the solo, I think, goes like this:
E|-12-12-12\10-10-10-10\9--9--9--------------------------------------------|
B|-14-14-14\12-12-12-12\10-10-10-10---10---10---------------------------10-|
G|-------------------------------9h11-9h11-9h11-9---------------------9----|
D|------------------------------------------------11-9-------9b-11-11------|
A|-----------------------------------------------------12-12---------------|
E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-14-14-14/15-15-15-15\14-14-14-14/15-15-15-15\14-14-14-12-12-12-|
B|-15-15-15/17-17-17-17\15-15-15-15/17-17-17-17\15-15-15-14-14-14-|
G|----------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-10-10-10-10-9--9-------------------|
B|-12-12-12-12-10-10-10---------------|
G|----------------------9h11p9--------|
D|-----------------------------11-----|
A|--------------------------------12~-|
E|------------------------------------|
This is 100% correct.
