Radical Face é o projeto-solo de Ben Cooper (e uma metade do Electric President). Pra quem já conhece/gosta de Electric, digo, a proposta é basicamente a mesma: Mellow indie, Piano, Electronica & etc. Lançaram em 2007 o "Ghost" um álbum bem conceitual que teve a colaboração de Emeral Cooper, Mark Hubbard e Alex Kane em algumas faixas. Em Janeiro deste ano, Ben Cooper lançou seu mais novo trabalho o "Patients" e o seu objetivo é lançar as músicas que ele feito ao longo dos anos e que "não se encaixam em seus trabalhos".
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
"Welcome Home, Son" Radical Face - Ghost (2007) Tabbed by Dylan Williams Send questions or comments to [email protected]
Every once in a while, I will discover that the tabs for a rather good or popular song are so chaotic and muddled that they make the song far more complicated than it actually is.
The chords themselves are fairly simple, the rhythm is probably what makes this song so confusing, as it changes, like, four hundred times, making the song seem practically through-composed. Listen to the song a few to times to get all of the rhythm changes down.
If you want to play in the original key of F#, capo it at the sixth.
Chords used: C ------ X32010 Em ----- 022000 F ------ X3321X G ------ 320003 Am ----- X02210
You should know those, right?
[Intro]
CEmCEmCEm FCFCG FCFCGC
[The transition from F to C looks like this...] e ------------| B --1--1--1---| G --2--0--0---| D --3--3--2---| A --3--3--3---| E ------------| [which sounds very nice, and is used throughout the song.]
[Verse 1]
CEmFC Sleep don't visit, so I choke on sun FCG And the days blur into one FC And the backs of my eyes FCG hum with things I've never done
Sheets are swaying from an old clothesline Like a row of captured ghosts over old dead grass Was never much but we've made the most
[The two notes he plays on both syllables of "welcome" are F# and F (without the capo), or the third fret, followed by the second, of the A string]
[Chorus]
CBAmFC Welcome hoooooome (you get the idea) AmFC hoooooome AmFC hoooooome AmFC hoooooome
[Verse 2]
Ships are launching from my chest Some have names but most do not If you find one, please let me know what piece I've lost
Heal the scars from off my back I don't need them anymore You can throw them out or keep them in your mason jars
[Chorus]
CBAmFC I've come hoooome AmFC hoooooome AmFC hoooooome AmFC hoooooome
AmFC All my nightmares escaped my head AmFC Bar the door, please don't let them in AmFC You were never supposed to leave AmFC Now my head's splitting at the seams FCG And I don't know if I can
AmCFEm AmCFEm
FCGFCGFCGAmCG Here, beneath my lungs, I feel your thumbs press in-to my skin again
FAmFAm FAm
[Ends on an unresolved D#m (without capo), which is pretty ballsy]
