Os Department of Eagles começaram em 2000, com o feliz acaso de Fred Nicolaus e Daniel Rossen terem de partilhar um quarto na New York University. Como forma de entretenimento, juntavam samples e tornavam-nos em canções novas, com a ajuda de software pirata e um microfone emprestado. Por esta altura, ainda respondiam por Whitey on the Moon UK, que depois mudariam, ao descobrir uma banda californiana com igual nome. Acidentalmente descobertos por uma editora californiana, editaram "The Cold Nose" em 2003.
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!
Hi all enjoyers, this my fisrt tab and the first one made on Department of eagles, I think. So the chords names are a bit approximative, but I guess you can figured out how the look like, that the only point. This songs is pretty complicated and chord some times hurts fingers, but anyway, its so great, I love it. The fist part of this song is accoustic, followed by and electric part filled with some noise in background, that also create some king of melodies. It’s beautiful. So that’s it. Please forgive or just not consider my mistake, i’m a francophone from Montréal.
I think Rossen is actually playing it with a pick, but for me its easier without. I guess you can figure the rythme, its some kind of alternance between base and the other strings, a bit syncopated.
-hold AM7-
AM7A6G#sus4F#M7 All right, we'll do this your way AM7A6G#sus4F#M7 All right, we'll make it anyway AM7A6G#sus4 Now'd be good time, F#M7 To send us all away there
Chorus:
C#m6F# 11 So what would it take? C#m6F# 11 And what would it take to make you learn?
-First two bars of Intro-
C#m6F# 11 And what would it take? C#m6F# 11 And what would it take to make you listen? ah
-Last two bars of Intro-
-Then the samplers beat gets in, and its like really emotive at that point, you can almost feel Rossen anger... Anyways. Its now a bit tricky to get the same sound, because the guitar is mostly indistinct and hidded behind all gloamy effects. The best way to make it work accousticly is maybe to play it in fingerpicking, with every notes slightly divided, so it make almost the same chopped feel -
AM7A6G#sus4F#M7 Oh man, you're not the only one AM7A6G#sus4F#M7 Oh boy, with that phantom other gone AM7A6 Now'd be the right time G#sus4F#M7 To send us all away AM7A6 It'd be a good time G#sus4F#M7 If you just go away there
Chorus:
C#m6F# 11 What would it take? C#m6F# 11 What would it take to make you leave?
-Fisrt two bars of Intro-
C#m6F# 11 What would it take? C#m6F# 11 What would it take to make you listen?
-first two bars of Intro again-
C#m6 My God, in heaven F#M7 What were we thinking? C#m6 My God, in heaven F#M7 What were we thinking of?
-Noisy little bridge that I can’t figure-
F#M7 Look out, look now F#M7/Sol We gotta get out now F#M7 Look out, look out now F#M7/Sol We gotta get out now AM7 Wake up, wake up now AM7/Sib We gotta get out now AM7 Wake up, wake up now AM7/Sib We gotta get out now
Outro - same as Intro, with some voice reaching the guitar
That’s it! Please enjoy. You can send me comments, corrections or suggestions at [email protected], i’d be thankfully reading it. Enjoy the genius of Daniel Rossen!
