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!
He plays the Cmaj7 like this (x35500, sort of like a power chord),
but you can play it even easier (x32000), sounds close enough.
Dsus2 is just a regular open D chord with the top string open (xx0230).
In the end solo he plays the chords by moving the Cmaj7 power chord shape up the neck.
So Dsus2add13 looks like this (x57700), E5 is (x79900) and G6 is (x 10 12 12 0 0).
As per suggestion, you can tune your bottom E string down to C to get that low end
on the C chord. Then you'll have to mute the bottom E string when playing the Em chord
or play it like (422000) or (4x2000).
The intro and the majority of the song just alternates between Cmaj7 and Dsus2.
Cmaj7 Dsus2
On tour
Lord of the flies
Aw, hey, who cares?
What's a guitar?
Watch out for this one
He'll stab you in the back for fun
I'm just playin'
I know you, man,
Most of the time
Watch out for this one
He'll pump you full o' lead for turnin' your head wrong
I would know
I see through everyone, even my own self now
Am Em
I wanna write my whole life down
Cmaj7 Dsus2
Burn it there to the ground
Am Em
I wanna sing at the top of my lungs
Cmaj7 Dsus2
For fun, screaming annoyingly
'Cause that's just me
Cmaj7 Dsus2
Being me, being free
Watch out for this one
He'll pump you full o' lead for turnin' your head wrong
I would know
'Cause I can see through him and them
On tour
Lord of the flies
I'm just playin'
I got it made
Most of the time
Am Em
I wanna beat on a drum so hard
Cmaj7
'Til it bleeds blood
Dsus2
Pull out the heart
Am
'Til it don't start again
