when i play this in an acoustic , i play the big riff that usually alternates
between D and C notes which is played throughout the verses by playing Dsus2
and D7sus , hammering on and off from the D and C on the B string instead .
alternately , you can just play the riff .
verse 1 :
Dsus2 D7sus2
the static comes in slow
you can feel it grow
our stream of conscience flows
under the streets below
interlude :
Dsus2 D7sus2
( oohs )
verse 2 :
Dsus2 D7sus2
the rivers made of sound
still running underground
runs like a silent flood
we run as thick as blood
prechorus :
A# F
can you hear it rise , up from the ground
A# G
can’t drown it out , can you hear it now
– chorus
D
this is the sound of a heartbeat
A#
this is the sound from the discontented mouths
of a haunted nation
F G
we are the voice of breaking
D
down , can you hear me?
A#
this is the sound of the desperation bound
by our own collision
F G
we are the voice of breaking
D
down
verse 3 :
Dsus2 D7sus2
the static comes alive
beneath the broken skies
john perkins said it right
love is the final fight
interlude : Dsus2 D7sus2
( oohs )
prechorus 2 :
A# F
let it rise above , rise above
A# G
there is no song , louder than love
– chorus
D
this is the sound of a heartbeat
A#
this is the sound from the discontented mouths
of a haunted nation
F G
we are the voice of breaking
D
down , can you hear me?
A#
this is the sound of the desperation bound
by our own collision
F G
we are the voice of breaking
D
down
breakdown :
( this is the part where it gets quiet and then the solo comes in before A
third prechorus . if you are chording here just continue the Dsus2 D7sus2
combo for the whole thing . )
