Chi-town chords by The Cribs

Taken from their forth-coming album In The Belly of The Brazen Bull, I've just had a
quick stab at the chords for this- it sounds about ok to me!

I've put the chords as open, but I'm pretty sure they're played as power chords or barre chords.

The G bits in the verse are just two very quick hits of the G chord. Pretty simple really-
I prefer to play them as power chords, G5, C5, A5 etc, but you may prefer barred or open.


Intro

Feedback, followed by

G X 2

Verse 1
C          Am     E
Forget the airport
      G
and cut my hair short
C           Am      E
Eat cookies and cream
      G                           C
from the store at the end of the street,
             Am
There's so much junk in my head,
E              G
will I only  hear when you're dead?
C               Am              E               G
But I'll still think of you to take it out on myself.

It kind of stays on G, sliding up one fret, a few times, then alternates and gets quicker

A few notes are played to finish (on the D string, 10th fret) C, B, Bb, and then
feedback to end with.



Hope this helps- I can play the solo, but not 100%. I'm sure some of the better players
