Recording on 'New Gods' is Capo 3.
During the verse, both the Am and C have a pull off/hammer on on the B string, first fret. The Em has
a similar variation on the G string, second fret.
Lyrics should be correct except for the line that sounds like "I keep slipping on the tossing like
I'm sick again." I have no idea what he says there!
Am C
After the longest night
Em Am
Stepping out into a new daylight
Am C
Beer ice cold in my hand
Em Dm
Like I’m on my way, like I had
Am C
Plenty not to talk about
Em Am
Stopping for a burger at the in-and-out, waiting in line
Am C
For the prophecy
Em Dm
How we took our turns to be
Am C
Strung out like some powder in a bag of skin
Em Am
Last night I could have sworn I was dying
Am C
Cicadas singing at my window, signs
Em Dm
Proclaim the end is nigh
C Em
But not tonight
Am C
California, ooh
Em Am
I keep slipping on the tossing like I’m sick again
Am C
Ooh white light white heat all night
Em Am
Heart beating in my chest like a kettle drum
Am C
California, ooh
Em Am
I keep slipping on the tossing like I’m sick again
Am C
Ooh white light white heat all night
Em Am
Heart beating in my chest like a jackhammer
Am C
What of the unfinished symphonies
Em Am
Immigration infamies, my head rings like the liberty bell
Am C
Sweating like a winner on a hot day
Em Dm
Sinner, say what, say nothing if you’ve nothing to sell
Am C
Every time I open up my mealy mouth
Em Am
This tiny wee sound comes out, I’m spitting it out in the doubt
Am C
I hear my heart like a back-beat
Em Dm
Something incomplete, no midnight choir
Am Em
No love over desire
Chorus x 2
Just add some horsewhip sound effects and that's it! Hope you enjoy!
