STANDARD TUNING: EADGBe
Tabbed by: Shaun Booth
Email: concern_in_vain@hotmail.com
Key: F is a low F: 133211 (the 211's are optional to your playing)
Fh is a high F: x81010xxx (an octave up)
It sounds better to play barre chords for most of the chords except maybe the Dm.
F G A# C F
Tonight the drunks are infected, we're on our way
G A# C F
As if they drop by to see me uninvited
A# C Fh C A#
And I am a wallflower, maybe a better father
C
This is a job
F G
For seconds I miss the Bentleys
A# C F
Today maybe they'll call,
G A# C F
You describe every prison you pass through them all
A# C F Aadd9
Then he asked you for your head and I vowed to burn your bed
Dm G A#
Try to pretend, but this is your life,
C
somehow, it feels right
-----------------------
bridge: (see an alternative way to play this bit at the end)
F C
I'm calling this evolution, I'm falling for institution
Dm C A#
Warm submission enveloping you
D|-0-2-3--2-0-----|
A|------------3-1-| (violin fill)
E|----------------|
(repeat chords)
Tomorrow I'll survive the questions
Knives buried with cold indifference
My world is true rendered by you
(violin fill x2)
Aadd9 A# C F
Here they come again, I could never find the words
C A#
So I disguised them in verse
C Fh
Until it comes out dumb and wrong,
C A# C
The simplest song, if you sing along
---------------------------
*bridge: alternative playing method
the way i originally learnt that bridge section:
* * #
G|-10-10-7-7-77-5-55-555-3~-|
D|-10-10-7-7-77-5-55-535-3~-|
A|--8--7-5-5-55-3-33-333-1~-| -then play the violin fill
E|--------------------------|
*played 16 times
#note the little change here
The Joey Cape version of the song on the Tony Sly split has an extra section to
it:
F A#
(Marry me Kristen, marry me Kristen
G C
I want to be the only one)
(use the "bridge" chords for this)
I'm painting a revolution
I'm falling for institution
Warm colors enveloping blue
D|-0-2-3--2-0-----|
A|------------3-1-|
E|----------------|
("bridge" chords again)
Shot of comfort in a warm convention
Medicinal injection
36 years ended by you
*
D|-0-2-3-2-0---5-3-2-0-3--|
A|-----------3------------|
E|------------------------|
*as this 3 is played, the F chord for the next section is played, so you can play
them simultaneously
F G
Tonight the drunks are infected
A# C F
We're on our way
key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
~ = let ring
X = mute
just listen to the song to get the timing
email me if you have any questions/queries
will post a youtube video soon
