Fish
(zack26)
from Fear Yourself
This song has
layers of droning open G string guitar parts with single note
melodies. They sound great if you have a couple of guitarists
and a bass player, but if you just want to play it by yourself, these
chords work well.
for the G/D chord in the intro
X-5-0-0-3-X sounds pretty good
Intro: G
C G/D C
The verses are
carried mostly by the bass notes (G-C-D-A) but if you want to play
chords over it, these work:
G C
D Am
(4 times)
Try aching every care in the
world.
She’s only the most beautiful girl.
The more
I think it the badder it gets
I was just swimming along when
I was caught in her net
G
Em Am
D (4 times)
She’s got me singing with a broken
heart
I keep on messing with my mind torn apart
She’s already
forgotten, look at me left in the dust
I guess my art didn’t help
very much
(chord prog #1)
Then the super love
got me again
Got me dreaming I could almost win
I stopped to
take a look around with a grin
So much turmoil in this crazy
town
(chord prog #2)
She’s got me bloody from
hitting the bricks
Is this the way the girlies get their
kicks?
And now I see if it makes a difference
Everyone in love,
hating her & each other
(keep alternating between the
two chord progressions)
Always thinking it’s near the
end
Then I was hoping she’d be my friend
Will I forever only
wish it again?
oh to be alive & free from sin!
Psycho
love in the Twilight Zone.
Drippy soap opera on the telephone.
I
get so close but I don’t belong.
Strain to identify with a radio
song.
Then I see her as if in a dream.
It’s so real I
could almost scream.
She’s doing a ritual the same for any
man,
just like a movie it’s so deadpan!
I hope for
true love in the darkness.
I had the chance at false
romance.
Maybe next time I’ll look for something new.
I’m so
ashamed, so unglued.
I’ve had enough & she’ll
never know.
I feel like staying but my subconscious says
‘Go’.
Shed a tear like blood on the floor
It’s only love
and nothing more
She’s got me singing with a broken
heart
I keep on messing with my mind torn apart
She’s already
forgotten, look at me left in the dust
I guess my art didn’t help
very much
(Intro chords to end)
