Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
I just listened to the song a little and this is what i came up with. It might not
be the exact way he plays it but it sounds good enough. Note that the C* is just a
little variation of the C chord where you let go with the finger that's pushing
down the D-string (in most cases the middle finger). So whenever the C* shows up
just switch between the regular C (X32010) and the C* (X30010). This might sound
confusing but it's really easy. You'll get it ;)
INTRO:
C C*/C/C*
F, Em, G,
F, Em, G,
C
C Am G F
Slid right through the turnstile and off the loft we went,
C F G
We were taken in by strangers, called out by coil and kin.
C Am G F
Oh concentrate on as far back as you can go,
C
When we would put a bullet in its
F G
belfry to prove it's all a hoax,
C
So what we don't impress the fireworks
Am G F
with the strumming of our smiles
C
But you can look up how high heaven is
F G
and try to count the miles,
F G (C)
Keeps us busy for awhile.
(play the intro once or twice inbetween the verses)
C Am G F
Said the cradle to the kick drum that life begins again,
C
Smoke butts like spent bullets
F G
Street sweepers home to sleep again
C
And when he put his arms around me his
Am G F
hoodie smelled like gasoline,
C
So here's to all lost fragrances,
F G
To a future with some balance,
F G
To a future without judgment,
F G C
To a future with my family
F G
To a future without anger,
F G
To a fate of more than damaged fits,
F G C
To a future worth re...membering.
(you can end with the intro and end on C or just invent your own ending)
