version 1 . 0
tuning : standard
key : G major
today , ladies and gentlemen , we have a tab for ’black treacle’ the second track
from arctic monkeys upcoming fourth album entitled ’suck it and see’ this is a tab
of the live version so i will make any adjustments when the studio version
actually gets released but i don’t expect any of the chords to change so this is
about as accurate as it will ever be . nothing too complex here , can all be played
open with the exception of a couple of chords . i’ll post a link to the youtube
video if you want to play along which you will probably need to , to get to grips
with the strumming as there is a fair bit of off – beat strumming throughout the
verses . regardless , learn , enjoy and as usual; email me if you have any issues .
intro :
G

G Bm Em
G
does it help you stay up late?
G D C
does it help you concentrate?
C G D
does it tune you in , when you chew your chin?
D C G
Am i ruining your fun?
G
and you talk the talk alreyt ,
G D C
but do you walk the walk or catch the train?
C G D C
you wanted it , you got it , but you dont want it now .
G
C D G
and now its getting dark and the sky looks sticky ,
G C D G
more like black treacle than tar ,
G C D
black treacle ,
D G Em Cm ( let ring ) G
somebody told the stars youre not coming out tonight ,
Cm ( let ring )
and so they found a place to hide .
G Bm Em
G
C D G
and now im out of place and im not getting any wiser ,
C D G
i feel like the sun dance kid behind a synthesiser ,
Em C D
and i tried last night to pack away the laugh ,
G Cm
like a key under the mat ,
C D ( let ring ) G Bm Em
but it never seems to be there when you want it ,
Em Gm Bm Em
black treacle
Em Gm Bm Em
black treacle
Em Gm Bm Em
black treacle
end on G .
