----------- AS WE GO UP ----------- The chorus and verse are both arpeggiated barre chords. These are the notes I think they're playing, but the guitar is pretty hard to hear for most of the song Verse: G C E D e---3------------------------------------------------------------------ B------3--------5------------------------------------------------------ G-----------------5-------9--------7----------------------------------- D---------------------------9--------7--------------------------------- A------------3-------3-7------7--5------------------------------------- E-3-------3------------------------------------------------------------ Chorus: G C Bm C e----3-------------------2-------------------------------------------- B------3------5------------3------5----------------------------------- G---------------5-------------------5--------------------------------- D--------------------------------------------------------------------- A-----------3------3--2------2--3------------------------------------- E-3-------3----------------------------------------------------------- For the bridge ("I speak in monotone...") play Bb and C, strummed normally. ------------ BLIMPS GO 90 ------------ The verse is a pretty simple little riff. Play this thing a few times: e------------------ B------------------ G------------------ D---4-------4------ A-2---2------------ E-------0-0---0---- Followed by: e---------------------------------------- B---------------------------------------- G---------------------------------------- etc. D---------------------------4-------4---- A----6-------6-----4------2--2----------- E--4---4-4-4---0-2---2----------0-0---0-- ^ (This is kind of a grace note played as you move your fingers from the G#5 to F#5.) The transition from verse to chorus goes: e------------------- B------------------- G------------------- D----4-----4-------- A--2---2-1---1-2---- E------------------- The chorus is just two note power chords: Ab5 F#5 E5 Ab5 E5 F#5 The violin part is basically four notes played in different orders. e---11---9---------- is the first riff; the violin plays these notes B-----------12---9-- throughout the rest of the song. -------------- CLOSER YOU ARE -------------- The verse is just a change between C and G barre chords. The chorus is G C Bm Bb A. For "Now you can see the boys" play C then B. (It might be C then G, I'm not really sure.) The "dreaming, scheming" riff is this: e-----0-0-0-------0-0-0----------------------------------------------- B---0-------0---0-------0-----0-0-0-------0-0-0----------------------- G---------------------------0-------0---0-------0--------------------- D--------------------------------------------------------------------- A-0-----------0------------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------0-----------0------------------------------- The last part goes like this: C G Csus2 e--3-----3----3---------------3----------------------3---------------- B--5----------3---------------3----3--3--3-----------3---------------- G--5--5----5--4---------------5-5-----------5--------4---------------- D--5----------5---------------5----------------------5---------------- A--3----------5---------------3----------------------5---------------- E-------------3--------------------------------------3---------------- I get up Seven o'clock Drive myself up to the lookout rock ------------ LITTLE WHIRL ------------ The verse riff is: D A G E G A The chorus is: G A End on A D. ----------- MY SON COOL ----------- The intro is: B D B D E The verse is: A D A F# E F# D B D And then repeat the intro. ---------- PIMPLE ZOO ---------- The first part is E then G. The break in between the two main parts is B G# D#. Then the final part is E then Db. -------------- A SALTY SALUTE -------------- The guitar part to this is simply D and E. However, I think it sounds better to follow the baseline, especially if you're just playing alone. In that case, the chords are: D A D G F# E F# G. ------------------ WATCH ME JUMPSTART ------------------ The opening riff is 3 barre chords: E F# A F# E For the verse, I play the same chords, only leave the low E string open and alternate it with the chords like this: e-0-----0----------2-----2----------5------ B-0-----0----------2-----2----------5------ G-1-----1----------3-----3----------6------ D-2-----2----------4-----4----------7------ A-2-----2----------4-----4----------7------ E---0-0---0-0-...----0-0---0-0-...----0-0-- Followed by the main riff. For the "Shoot me down part" play E followed by A. Then, for "Cause I won't be around" play a Dbm. The little riff that goes on there is just the B string; while making the Dbm, lift your middle finger on and off, like this B-5-5-5-4-5. The rest of the bridge goes like this: F# E As you run from the places you love I remember the faces that cry C D C And they're pulling me back so I have to die Comments, corrections, etc. michael.davidson@the-matrix.com Special thanks to Dildozer*a good flying bird/alien lanes F G bflat C F G bflat C bflat G bflat C F G bflat C F G bflat C F G bflat C F G bflat C bflat G bflat C F G bflat C F G bflat C A bflat C F ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- *don't stop now(not the one on the new album) d|--0--0----0--0-------- a|-0--0--0-0--0--0------ e|2--2--2-3--3--3------- (keep doin this over and over) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- *my valuable hunting knife(sort of how they play it live) first part: C E C A G hit it: F E F E F E F E G E F E F E G F third part: C A G C A G C E C A G C E C A G hit it: F E F E F E F E G E F E F E G F i will run: E F G F E F G F E F G F E F sixth part: C A G C A G never know: C A G F C A G F C A G F ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- *striped white jets/alien lanes (* = play the f over and over again at the start) F* F A G F* F A G F* F A G F* F A G -------- B A F B A -------- riff g-------------------------3333----------------------------333----- d-3333333222222211111115555---3333333322222222111111115555---0----- a------------------------------------------------------------------0770-0550 e-----------------------------------------------------------------1----1---- a--0330-01111(alot of times)- e-1----1--------------------0 F* F A G F ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------------------------- *king and caroline/alien lanes this song is played on bass but it sounds fine on a six string my notes on this one are far from perfect but they're good enough for me first part: 4 times a-------222553-23232- <-this last note switches to 5 on 4th time e-333555------------- second part: 2 times a-555---33322--232323 e----333-----5------- first part: 2 times second part: 2 times first part: 2 times
