Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
The chord shapes take a little getting used to. Unfortunately there's no great video footage to
demonstrate, so I'll try to explain.
Normal E shape; move your middle finger to the 2nd fret E string
to play the F# note and mute the A string; use your index and middle for the Asus2 and use your ring
or pinky to fret the 4th stret E string for the G#. It's okay if you end up muting the A string
on the A/G# chord, it sounds pretty much the same either way.
Don't forget to tune a half-step down to play along with the record.
E - 022100
E/F# - 2x0100
Asus2 - x02200
A/G# - 402200
C#m - x46654
Bsus4 - x24400
[Intro]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2 (x2)
[Verse]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Well I'm staring at a blank page
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
And I don't like writing anymore
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
The self appointed martyr, he will die
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
before he knows what he's even dying for
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Well I'm drinking from my father's flask
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
And there's something burning on my lips
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
This shit tastes just like medicine
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
but I'll take it for what it is
C#m E Bsus4 Asus2
Well I've seen my future self in stranger's eyes
C#m E Bsus4
It's strange knowing how you will die
[Interlude]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2
[Verse]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
I'm sick of the voices and headaches
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
of forced attempts at empty conversation radiate
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
A wallet hidden under a cross
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Similarities too forward and obvious to think much on
C#m Bsus4 Asus2
Something's pulling me in again
C#m Bsus4 Asus2
And I think I'm losing my mind
[Pre-Chorus]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Something's swimming in my bloodstream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Forcing back the words you said to me
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Something's swimming in my bloodstream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Forcing back the words you said to me
[Interlude]
C#m E Bsus4 Asus2 C#m E Bsus4
[Verse]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Now the doctor, yes, he had to notice
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
That she was all alone staring at her wedding ring
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
On the day that her son had to leave her womb
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
Like his father, he knew how he'd deal with things
C#m E Bsus4 Asus2
On the day he left her womb tears filled her eyes
C#m E Bsus4
Because her son refused to cry
[Chorus]
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
You're swimming in my blood stream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
You're swimming in my blood stream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
You're swimming in my blood stream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G# E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
You're swimming in my blood stream
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
I'm like you
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
I'm like you
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
I'm like you
E E/F# Asus2 A/G#
I'm like you
