Arctic Monkeys - Black Treacle This is Alex Turner's part for the song, which is mainly chords until the little solo medley bit at the end of the Chorus. VERSE 1: G G G G G G G G Lately I've been seeing things, G G G G D D C C Belly button piercings, C C G G G G D D In the sky at night, D D C C C C G G When we're side-by-side. G G G G G G And I don't mean to rain, G G D D D D C C On anybody's caboret, C C G G G G D D One of those games you're gonna lose, D D C C C C G G But you wanna play it just incase. CHORUS 1: C Now it's getting dark, D G And the sky looks sticky, C D G More like black treacle than tar, C Black treacle, D G A Cm G Somebody told the stars you're not coming out tonight, Cm G So they found a place to hide. (On the second Cm, sometimes I like to play this: |--5~--| |--3~--| |--3~--| |--5~--| |--3~--| |------| SOLO THING: |---------------------------| |---------------------------| |--/14~/16------------------| |----------14b~-14b~-12-----| |-----------------------14--| |---------------------------| It's pretty much the same until the bridge: BRIDGE: C Now I'm out of place, D G And I'm not getting any wiser, C I feel like the Sundance Kid, D G Behind a synthesizer, Em And I tried last night, C D To pack away a laugh, G Cm Like a key under the mat, C D Well it never seems to be there, When you want it. Repeat the solo thing over the chorus 'till end, ending on: |----------------------------| |----------------------------| |--/14~/16-------------------| |----------14b~-14b~-16-12~--| |----------------------------| |----------------------------| LEGEND/KEY: m = Minor ~ = Let ring / = Slide up b = Bend
