I saw the chords in a live gig that I recorded. But I'll write 13 after the chords. Here they are in the right order: B13: (76x8xx) A13: (54x6xx) E: (022100) Actually, Graham plays the part Danny Parrott has tabbed Instead of an E. G13: (32x4xx) F: (133211) Play with a low thumb. Graham often plays the bar chords with a low thumb. A#13:(65x8xx) C#: (x46664) He doesn't play this order all the way during the song. When you play the first two "13" chords then bend the G string a little. But I think he uses some sort of pedal that makes that "bending" sound. Because he doesn't bend the G-string when he plays the song. Verse 1: B Do you feel like a chain store? A E Practically floored G F One of many zeros A# C# Kicked around bored B Your ears are full, but you're empty A E Holding out your heart G F To people who never really A# A Care how you are (GUITAR FILL 1) (Chorus) C#m So give me Coffee & TV B A (Graham plays B13) History (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m I've seen so much E I'm going blind A B(B13) And I'm braindead virtually C#m 'Cos Sociability B(B13) A It's hard enough for me (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m E Take me away from this big bad world A D And agree to marry me A So we can start over again Verse 2: B Do you go to the country? A E It isn't very far G F Those people there will hurt you A# C# 'Cos of who you are B Your ears are full of the language A E There's wisdom there you're sure G F 'Til the words start slurring A# A And you can't find the door (GUITAR FILL 1) (Chorus) C#m So give me Coffee & TV B A (Graham plays B13) History (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m I've seen so much E I'm going blind A B(B13) And I'm braindead virtually C#m 'Cos Sociability B(B13) A It's hard enough for me (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m E Take me away from this big bad world A D And agree to marry me A So we can start over again Solo(more like the live version): B A E G F A# C# e/----------------------------------------------------------- B/----------------------17~~-15~~---------------------------- G/-16~~------------------------------------------------------ D/------16h18-19--14~~-----------15b17--15-15^--------------- A/----------------------------------------------------------- E/----------------------------------------------------------- B A E G F A# A e/----------------------------------------------------------- B/----------------------------------------------------------- G/------9-11-11-9b11-11-9-------------------4-4-4-6-11-9----- D/-5b7---------------------9~~9~~-12~--14~~--------(17~~)---- A/----------------------------------------------------------- E/----------------------------------------------------------- The 17 in brakets is what guitar 3 plays. ~= vibrate (Chorus) C#m So give me Coffee & TV B A (Graham plays B13) History (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m I've seen so much E I'm going blind A B(B13) And I'm braindead virtually C#m 'Cos Sociability B(B13) A It's hard enough for me (GUITAR FILL 2) C#m E Take me away from this big bad world A D And agree to marry me A So we can start over again B e/----------------------------- B/----------------------------- G/----------------------------- This is played after Graham sings D/----------------------------- "Aah, we can start over again" A/-6-7-6-7-9-7-6--6-7-6-7-9-7-- E/----------------------------- D A Aah, we can start over again D A Aah, we can start over again D A Aah, we can start over again D A Aah, we can start over again *** Swamp Song *** By : Marco Gegenheimer([email protected]) In this song Graham plays with a slide on his Gibson SG guitar.
