song: dulli, mc collum

The guitar plays the repetitive figure while the bass plays the low end
melody notes. Watch out for the timing cos it sounds a little different,
(I haven’t worked out what it is yet) :
e|----55----55---5-|
B|-33----33----3---|
|
Bass : F# (1st time)
G (2nd time)
F# (3rd time)
E (4th time)
(now joined by the 2nd guitar playing accompanying chords)
Bass : F# Guitar : F#m 244222
B Bm X24432
D D XX0232 or X57775
D D
Repeat F# B D A then :
Bass : G Guitar : G 320033

Carry on with the D for 6 more bars, allowing it to decay into the verse

intro
verse
hypnotized by this endless summer
filled with nothing i keep with me
won't let them take this nothing from me
won't let you waste my time for me
Some more F#, B, D here
i've been a good boy so give it to me
and keep your brothers away from me
they know i took it
they're coming for me
now i can hear them following
chorus
G D
we had talked about it for days
it's not supposed to happen this way
For the following just play the B ( X2X033 ) once with the emphasis on the low strings, whereas the Csus2 (
X3X033 ) and D ( XX0232 ) are both strummed as per the record. If you’re playing in a band just the bass
could cover the B note. The D chord also alternates so sometimes it’s a G instead so the riff either ends up
going up or down at the end. I don’t know if there is much of a pattern to this as the vocals, bass and guitar
all do this alternation on different lines. Make up you own version!
Csus2 B D(or G)
don't believe it's get ting cold
don't suppose i'm get ting bold
shove my head against the door
crawl inside and kiss the floor
waiting for the sun a gain
drink it smoke it stick it in
drink it smoke it stick it in
Not sure about the following, could be F#, B, D, A.
if i was going down
taking everybody else around
if i was going down
Repeat the main chorus chord sequence to fade :
Csus2 B D
(ends on D)
