i figured this out on my acoustic guitar , which is actually a pretty fun way
to play this song . : ) if you’re playing on electric , just stick to power
chords and you’ll be good to go . while not exactly the same notes as what
the guitar on the track may be playing , the chords match up to the track nicely .

these are the chords i use :

vs : D – 5577
xx C# – 4466
xx D5 – xx023

xbr : ( the “get ready set , all systems go” part )
Gsus4 – 335533
A# – 113331
C – 032010

ch : Gm – 355333
A# – 113331
Dm – 000231

sometimes on the verses i will let the barred E and B strings ring out;
just sounds neat . : ) the only other note is that in the lyrics , the second
line of the chorus switches every other time , noted in ( ) . the only bit that
i’m a tad fuzzy on is the bridge right before the final chorus . there’s a slight
tonal shift in there but the song has no guitar at that point so i Am not
sure what it is . i just play D5 over the whole thing and it seems to work .
any ideas are welcome!

it’s a pretty basic pattern – just listen to the track .

beat by beat . . .

jetlag limbo can’t decide
like molten rock i turn to stone
take me outside myself , do it nice and slow
somewhere beyond the great unknown

Gsus4 A# C
get ready set , all systems go
( go on give it to me )

chorus :

Gm A# Dm Dm
good life , godlike , wanna see it from the inside
bound down , gun shy , looking for strange
( free – fall , swan dive )

Gm A# Dm Dm
go on , give it to me , don’t stop , let me feel it , looking for strange
faster , harder , more , last chance , no return looking for strange

verse :
down here in the underbelly
no words are used to speak at all
the mind goes somewhere , comatose from lack of sleep
will i ever learn to talk?

br & chorus ( “free fall , swan dive” )

verse :
echoes scream without a sound
mirror pond reflects no face
shell – shock , avalanche , dialed out , can’t be reached
no fail – safe , panic at close range

pre – ch & chorus ( “bound down , gun shy” )

D5
girls and boys , guns and noise , beat by beat
be the best that you can be , best to your ability
your future bright and ours to take , do exactly as we say
step right up , sign right here
your name in blood , have no fear

Gm A# Dm Dm
good life , godlike , wanna see it from the inside
free fall , swan dive , looking for strange

Gm A# Dm Dm

go on , give it to me , hey – ay , hey – ee yay ( come on , come on , come on , come on )

looking for strange
