Tabbed by: Schimdt Email: anza0427@fridaskolan.se Any corrections, send them my way. Great song from Arcade Fires Funeral period (best period imo). Been bothering myself over the fact that there was no tab for this, so I went ahead and gave it a shot. Standard tuning, no capo In this song, both Win and Rich are on guitars, so I'll write down their chords together and mark the chords played by Rich with a * at the end of them. Those who are without that symbol are played by win. Simple enough. Intro: Let all these chords ring except for the regular C. Just do some down strokes on it. (Listen to the song, you'll get it) Ab F C# Ab Ab F C# C Verse: For the first to verses let the chords ring as well, except for the C. In the background the violin plays a high pitch C and sliding ut to C# at the end of each line. (Again listen in and you'll here it) Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* Burning bridges, breaking hearts Ab Ab* Everything you taught us to do Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts C C* No home to come home to Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts Ab Ab* I won't look you in the eye Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* And burning bridges, breaking hearts C C* Caught you in a friendship lie Ab F C# Ab Ab* F* C#* Ab* (These chords are played at the same time by Win and Rich, you don't need to let these ring if you dont want to. In the song they strum them) (Let these chords ring) Ab* F* C#* Took a visit, to your old house Ab* The windows were all boarded up Ab* F* C#* Try to hold these, memories C* The ocean in a paper cup Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* There's no future in this town Ab Ab* They barricade the buildings there Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* To the lion, you've been cast C C* Only bones are gonna last Chorus (Or some such): Both guitars play this. The whole thing is tremolo picked. For the most accurate sound, make sure to slide between the notes: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--16--------9--8---115----7--5----16------9-8---15---11-12-13--------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| It ends on Ab and then goes back into the verse chords. Like so (Again, this verse is only played by Rich, chords ring): Ab* F* C#* There's a city, underground Ab* There's a city made of glass Ab* F* C#* There's a city, underground C C* Hurry cause it's breaking fast Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* We're burning bridges, breaking hearts Ab Ab* Everything you taught us to do Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts C C* No home to come home to Ab F Ab* F* We're burning bridges, breaking hearts Ab F Ab* F* We're burning bridges, and breaking hearts Ab F C# Ab* F* C#* We're burning bridges, breaking hearts C C* Breaking hearts Here the song goes into a new chorus like thing. Where both guitars paly the following in tremolo picking: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|--19---9-8--15--11---6--5--10-9--------------------------------------------| D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| That repeats while Win sings first verse over it. Song ends on Abm
