2 To 1 chords by Elastica

Guitar chords with lyrics

2:1
elastica
(from the "elastica" album, also on "Trainspotting" soundtrack)

tabbed here by Matthew Ginn (mginn@manitouwadge.lakeheadu.ca)
1997 09 24

This song uses mostly power chords. I haven't tried to note
the strumming rhythms, because they're pretty variable, and mostly
unimportant--just listen to the record--it's straight forward enough.
(This song is played with two guitars, but I've tabbed the main parts
for one. Some day, I'll tab out the other parts.)

Rate this tab!

Accuracy Rating: - Votes: -

As for the lyrics: these are the best I could make them out. I didn't
try to correlate the background vocals with the main lyrics in verse
2, just try to fit them in as you see fit. As usual, corrections are
welcome.
