as theres no tab for that song so far , i tried my best to come up with an easy one .
suggestions , corrections ( esp . for the solo ) and comments highly appreciated!
i usually play the fs and gs as staccato as possible and strum the ems loosely , but
thats up to you , i guess .
for the intro :
E | – – 5 – – 5 – – 5 – – 5^6 – – 3 – – – 8p7h8 – |
B | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
G | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – | ( repeat )
D | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
A | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
E | – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – |
Em F Em G
Em F Em G
Em F
a boy like me is told
Em G
he is both nine and ninety
Em
and a boy like me
F Em
should shut those books
G
join the army
Em
and a boy like me
F Em
would never be seen
G
fighting for peace
Em
i want total chaos
F Em G
and a holiday home in the east
