This song gave me trouble for a long time just cuz I couldn’t quite figure
out the intro. I decided to try and get it to sound as close as possible and just do it
like that. It sounds ok, but I’ll fix it once I find out how it’s played. Play it
with a lot of distortion and it’ll sound good.
Intro: (x’s are muffled chords, listen to the song to get it)
e|-----------------------|
B|-----------------------|
G|--10-x--8-x--8-x-------|
D|--10-x--6-x--8-x--8-x--|
A|--8--x--6-x--6-x--8-x--|
E|------------------6-x--|
Play that top riff 5 times then play this:
e|-------------|-----------------------------------|
B|-------------|-----------------------------------|
G|-------------|--13-------------------------------|
D|--11-x--13-x-|--xx (hit this chord about 10-x’s)-|
A|--11-x--13-x-|--11-------------------------------|
E|--9--x--11-x-|-----------------------------------|
End the Intro and start the Verse with that one chord at the bottom.
Verse Riff: (~ = let it ring)
“...contact with others is unheard of...”
“...walking away won’t solve you problems.”
e|---|----------------------|-----|
B|---|----------------------|-----|
G|---|--x-10--10-8-88-88-66-|-8---|
D|-6-|--x-10--10-8-88-88-66-|-8-6-|
A|-6-|--x-8---8--6-66-66-44-|-6-6-|
E|-4-|----------------------|---4-|
e|-----------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|
G|--x-10--10-8-88-88-6-6~-(6)x-|
D|--x-10--10-8-88-88-6-6~-(6)x-|
A|--x-8---8--6-66-66-4-4~-(4)x-|
E|-----------------------------|
Play this chord muted~~~~~^
Then this little riff is like the “Pre-Chorus”
e|----------------------------------|
B|----------------------------------|
G|--88888-88-88-888888888-88-88-888-|
D|----------------------------------|
A|----------------------------------|
E|----------------------------------|
e|--------------------------------|
B|--8-8-8-88-88-888-8-8-8-88-888--|
G|--6-6-6-66-66-666-5-5-5-55-555--|
D|--------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------|
This is the chorus, I’ll them down with the strumming I use, but you can play
them however you like. Repeat the Chorus Riff 4 times.
Chorus Riff:
“When will we gain back the trust we’ve been breaking?”
e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|--10-1010101010--6-66666----------8-88888-|
D|--10-1010101010--6-66666-6-66666--8-88888-|
A|--8--8-8-8-8-8---4-44444-6-66666--6-66666-|
E|-------------------------4-44444----------|
After the Chorus then you play the Intro Riff again while M prolongs
the “wastiiiiiiiin’,” and you repeat all the song again all the way to
the Chorus. Once the chorus is played and when M prolongs “wastiiiin’” again, this is
the riff behind it: (it’s all played palm muted)
e|------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------8-------------xx--|
D|-----11--------6-----------------8----xx--|
A|-9-9----9--4-4---4-----------6-6---6--xx--|
E|--------------------4-4---4---------------|
Repeat that last riff once more then end with this:
e|--------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------------------|
D|--10-x--10----------------------------|
A|--10-x--10-(strum the chord many x’s)-|
E|--8--x--8-----------------------------|
Then play the Chorus Riff again and then the song ends something like this:
e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|--10-x--8-8-8-8--10-x--8-8-8-8--10--|
D|--10-x--8-6-8-6--10-x--8-6-8-6--10--|
A|--8--x--6-6-6-6--8--x--6-6-6-6--8---|
E|------------------------------------|
There you have it, probly not exact, but I don’t think punk rock was meant
to be an exact science.
