========================================== ===== The Kooks - Sofa Song Acoustic ===== ========================================== Acoustic version of this song is a little bit like the original but there are quite a major changes with the chords, and ive included the acoustic solo and bridge which Hugh on lead. Important note: Playing the G#7sus4 chord, on the third strum you need to bend the 7th on the 'E' string and release, you will see what i mean if you watch the video, it is like this practically all the way through. video can be found here at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_Qw2GwRJa8 Standard Tuning Chords: ---------------------------- G#7sus4 | 4,6,4,6,4,4 E | 0,2,2,1,x,0 E(v2) | x,7,9,9,9,7 A | 5,7,7,6,5,5 C#m | x,4,6,6,5,4 F# | 2,4,4,3,2,2 D#m | x,6,8,8,7,6 D#m(v2) | x,6,8,x,7,x Bmaj7 | x,2,4,3,4,2 G#m | x,11,13,x,12,x G#m7 | x,11,13,x,12,14 F#(v2) | x,9,11,x,11,x C#7 | x,4,6,4,6,4 ----------------------------- Intro - Ab7sus4, E x3 C#m, F# x1 ----------------------------- Verse - Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 The city freezes for E(v2) Bmaj7 Ebm I just realised I don't like you Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 Me and my girl E(v2) Bmaj7 Ebm Are going out for some air Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 And I will do my best E(v2) Bmaj7 Ebm Just to get under her dress Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 And catch you out if I can E Bmaj7 Ebm On the other side of my sofa ------------------------------ Chorus - Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 F# C#7 Won't you come on over At the side of my sofa Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 F# C#7 Oh won't you come on over ------------------------------ Solo (i know this is not 100% correct, i improvised on some bits) e|---------------9~~~~~~~~----------------------------| B|--4--7--9-7-9--11b12~~~~--9---7h9p7-4-7-4-2-0-2/4---| G|----------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| e|----------------------------------------------------| B|--5p4-----------------------------------------------| G|------4-6-4---4-------4--4-4-4-4/6-6-6-6/8--8h9p8---| D|------------6---6-4-6----6-6-6-6/8-8-8-8/9----------| A|----------------------------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| 2nd Verse - Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 The city heated up E(v2) Bmaj7 Ebm It got blurry cause I'd had enough Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 And he tried to take your soul E Bmaj7 Ebm But didn't realise you keep it in a different hole ------------------------------- 2nd Chorus - Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 E Won't you come on over Bmaj7 Ebm At the side of my sofa Ab7sus4 Bmaj7 E Bmaj7 Ebm Oh won't you come on over -------------------------------- Bridge: (played raggae style until 'E' chord) Abm7 Abm Ebm(v2) So here he comes, a man with a loaded gun, I don't know if he Abm F#(v2) Wants my soul or my cash flow Abm Abm7 Abm Abm7 So here he comes, a man with a F#(v2) A loaded gun I don't know if he Abm Abm7 Ebm(v2) E A Wants my girl's heart or her pearls -------------------------------- Outro - Ab7sus4 E I s'pose I don't know Ab7sus4 E I s'pose I don't know Ab7sus4 E I s'pose I don't know C#m F# I s'pose I don't knoooooow Ab7sus4 I s'pose I don't know --------------------------------- End - comments welcome sorry if its a quite a long tab ----------------------------------
