Motorpsycho - My Best Friend guitar tab
My Best Friend
taken from 'Let Them Eat Cake'.
Dadd9 is an awkward chord to grab, so I always just play a C chord
moved 2 frets higher, which is good enough.
The song starts with a chord that shouldn't be bothered to give a name:
---0---
---0---
---2---
---4---

The first time I saw jesus he had lust in his eyes;
A Dadd9
life on his breath and stories big as life
A Dadd9
a head that was buzzin' from the worlds that he'd seen
A Dadd9
and a mind stuck forever in a dream
A Dadd9
and hearing his laughter, I had to think anew
D E D9
about all of our yesterdays and how it went askew
D E
and how losing our minds was so much more important when
A Dadd9
he was my best friend
D E B A
B A
B A
B Am C Dadd9
Never trust your memories, you drink them better every time
A Dadd9
soon they're nothing more than a sack of guilded lies
A Dadd9
did it really happen or did I read it in a book?
A Dadd9
was fifteen years really all it took
A Dadd9
to lose all that innocense, that full on lust for life
D E D9
the undilluted power that cut like a knife
D E
through all the teenage bullshit that we slipped in on the way, when
A Dadd9
he was my best friend
D E B A

B Am C Dadd9 (starting chord)
Instrumental part with chill out slide guitar:
B A (3x)
B Am C Dadd9
The last time I saw jesus, he had holes in his eyes
A Dadd9
wine on his breath and conviction in his lies
A Dadd9
a head that was buzzin' from all the worlds that he'd seen
A Dadd9
but a mind stuck forever in a dream
A Dadd9
and hearing his laughter, I had to think anew
D E D9
about all of our yesterdays, and how it went askew
D E
he took the road less travelled, but somehow won out in the end
A Dadd9
I wish he was still my best friend...
D E (starting chord)
