========== The Radio Dept - 1995 =========
Standard tuning: EADGBE
No capo
==========================================
================= Verse ==================
The verse uses the same short pattern all the way through, shown below:
Pattern #1
e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------|
D|---6-6-6-6-4-7-6-6-1-1-1-1-2-2-2-2--|
A|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---|
E|------------------------------------|
Pattern #2
This is exactly the same but 5 steps higher. You could move everything down
1 string (physically) so it's played on the D and G strings or 5 frets up the
neck (which I prefer), shown below:
e|-----------------------------------------------------|
B|-----------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------|
D|----11--11--11--11--9---12--11--11--6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--|
A|--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---|
E|-----------------------------------------------------|
The sequence is 2x Pattern #1, 1x Pattern #2, 1x Pattern #1. Then repeat the
second half of Pattern #1 before the chorus.
=============== Chorus ===============
The chorus is played on the first three strings:
e|-------12-------12---------------12-------12---------|
B|----12-------12-------12------12-------12-------12---|
G|-14-------14-------14------14-------14-------14------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|
e|-------12--------12---------------12-------12--------|
B|----12--------12-------12------12-------12-------12--|
G|-13--------13-------13------13-------13-------13-----|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|
e|-------12-------12---------------12-------12---------|
B|----12-------12-------12------12-------12-------12---|
G|-14-------14-------14------13-------13-------13------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|
Repeat once

E1995 is missing buses
It's Bwalking 15 miles to see your Elove
It's knowing you're alive through all the fuzz
It's Bnever coming down from going up
A1995 is cutting classes
It's Esitting over coffees talking Aindie treats
EIt's the mere sensation of being the first one Bthat you see
When morning opens Eup the skies
BYou see me when daylight opens Eup your eyes
A 199E5
And though I'm happier Anow I always long someEhow (x3)
Back to A1995 E
B E B E
All my friends have different plans to make their lives worthBwhile
Some for the better
ESome for the worse
Some have gone to different cities searching every Bmile
For missing pieces that will Emake a whole
A1995 seems like a long way to go
EIf you ever were to find your Away back home
The Eonly thing I really miss is being the first one Bthat you see
When morning opens Eup the skies
BYou see me when daylight opens Eup your eyes
A 199E5
And though I'm happier Anow I always long someEhow (x3)
Back to A1995 E
