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!
Here is my Apparitions cheat because I’m lazy and I hate playing complicated chords and
bar chords (when I can avoid it) even if they DO sound better.
Capo 3
Standard Tuning
D-(pause)-D-D-U-
U-D -D-U-D-U (this is the strumming pattern I use, I play this pattern twice on each
during the verse.)
[G]
Say hello
[C]
Remain
[Em]
Close to me
[Am] [C]
No good-bye suicide mystery
[G]
The rat
C]
In your brain
[Em]
Turns a wheel
[Am]
Connected to your guts and
[C]
All your faults are in me
[C] [G]
And all your faults in me
[G] [C]
What would you say
[C] [Em]
If we lived on TV
[Am]
Besides all the things they told you to
[C]
And all the things they told you to
[Am]
And all the things they told you to
[C]
And all the things they told you to
[G]
We're stuck
[D]
Inside our own machine
[C]
Apparitions
[Am]
Apparitions
[G]
Apparitions
(The rest of the song repeats from here on out – I make up the solo part with a mix of
same chords because I play it acoustically)
Say hello
Well is it strange
Where you are
Where you used to be kind of free
Are they laughing at you
Laughing at you
The rat
In your brain
Rules the world
From the comfort of your living room
Tell me are we leaving soon
The comfort of your living room
Tell me are we leaving soon
We're stuck
Inside our own machine
Apparitions
We're stuck
Inside our own machine
