Well, this is an easy song, so I took the time to go through and do it
thoroughly with all the little background solos that make up most of the
song. So, here it is:::
Riff part... 1
This is the main little doodle that really isn't too hard
(on high e string)
E --5p4--4--4---5-------5p4--4--4--5 and repeat. do it with the song,
Riff part... 2
This is in the background, hard to hear, but makes the song sound really
full. Again, all on high e string
E --5-5---4-4---2-2---0-0-------------- repeat x4
Riff part... 3
This is the kind of solo riff
E --9--10--12--9--7--9--10--9--|--9---9p7--9p7--9----9---9p7--9p7---9
|-----------------------------|
during this part, all
notes are played twice
then back to begining, if necessary
Riff part... 4
This is played during the "heavy" part
E ----------------------------------------------------0-0-0-
B ---5--3--0--3--1--0--1--3--5--3--0--3--1--0--1--3--5-4-2-0
again, all notes played twice, except this last part
And, here's the chords and where the riffs should be played
Intro: A Amaj7 D E (once, then twice more with
riffs1 and 2)
A D A D A D A D
Even the odd one out is in with a shout.
A Amaj7
Weather the term and weather the storm
D E
the clumsy climb and the elegant fall, oh
A D A D A D A D
Even the odd one out is in with a shout.
Riffs 1 and 2
A Amaj7 D E
That may be the story, that may be the lie
A Amaj7 D E
But with great ease and with the pole greased it's down you slide
Riff3 x2
A Amaj7 D E
Must you protest til you're blue in the face
A D A D A D
Even the odd one, even the odd one.....
A D
Or blue in the blood
Riffs 1 and 2
A Amaj7 D E
An ugly greed is the sole need on a fragile high
A Amaj7 D E
Well I can't breathe and just can't seem to acclimatise
(*funky part*...I think this is close to right.....)
Riff4
D C AA D C E......
A Amaj7 D E (repeat til ending part)
ohh, that song, coming back to me now,
I fell to the ground and slowly came round and you stood over me.
Riff 1 somewhere here add riff 2
And you told me it never would be......etc
I'm out of my depth, I've come up for air
Riff 3
Show me how to become the life and soul of something, anything
Show me the memories of when I was young,
E D A
I didn't climb any trees then, I'm not climbing them now.
ending: A D A
That's it...it'll at least get you in the right direction. Listen to the
song to understand the riffs and where they come into and exit the song.
"So, so you think you can tell heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain??"
