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!
An easy strummy acoustic singer/songwriter style way of performing the song in a way still true to the original recording.
Intro riff: (played on the high e string)
e:--6-6-6--8-8-8--4-4-5----/
Main riff during the verse:
AD
e |------9----------10---| e|-----------------------------| B |---10---10----10----10| B|--------14-----------15------| G |-9---------11---------| G|-----14----14-----14-----14--| D |----------------------| D|--14-----------16------------| A |----------------------| A|-----------------------------| E |----------------------| or an easier way: E|-----------------------------|
or you could play it an octave lower which makes it easier to sing the lyrics over:
ADADADAD My beloved monster and me we go everywhere together ADADADAD Wearing a raincoat that has four sleeves gets us through all kinds of weather
Chorus 1:
ED She will always be the only thing ED That comes between me and the awful sting E D (one strum) That comes from living in a world that's so damn ADAD mean
Verse 2:
ADADADAD My beloved monster is tough if she wants she will disrobe you
ADADADAD But if you lay her down for a kiss, her little heart it could explode
Chorus 2:
ED She will always be the only thing ED That comes between me and the awful sting E D (one strum) That comes from living in a world that's so damn ADAD mean
Solo: (its very fuzzed out on the record, possibly also in octave chords)
