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!
I thought I would tab this song because no one else has. It is a great song by an awesome band and is wicked easy to play. The first verse is strummed and the rest of the song is played with a reggae strum pattern (down-stroke, then up-stroke). The chords are 100% correct; you just need to get the strum pattern down, which is wicked simple if you listen to the song, and then you're golden!
Tuning: Standard
Intro: F# (Strum once)
F#A#m Lying awake again and I don't know what's happening B I'm setting sail on unknown seas G#mC#B And I'm haunted by insecurities
F# I'm standing on the edge of a dream A#m Colliding with the light of this real life scene F#A#m And I don't feel a thing until the pain comes B And when it's all said and done would I just cut and run G#m Sometimes I'm so numb I don't know B If it happened tonight would I stand and fight G#mC# Or would I just let go
F#A#m Whatcha gonna do when it's all on you boy G#mC#B Whatcha gonna say when it's no no more F#A#m Whatcha really gonna do when it's all through boy G#mC#B Whatcha gonna say when it's over now
F#A#mF#A#m
F# Maybe it's the time of year A#m But I don't feel my soul shine F#A#m Locked up inside and floating on a cheap wine B But there's a smell in the air B And I swear somethings there G#m Blowing in on a California night B So if it's all gone and I can't go on G#mC# Well I'm sure as hell ain't ready to die
F#A#m Whatcha gonna do when it's all on you boy G#mC#B Whatcha gonna say when it's no no more F#A#m Whatcha really gonna do when it's all through boy G#mC#B Whatcha gonna say when it's over now
