On The Roof Again by Eve 6

Chords with lyrics

Title: "On The Roof Again"
Artist: EVE 6
Album: Horrorscope
Tabbed by: Alex Stroshane ([email protected])

Oops...I forgot they won't let you have more than one
tab per file, so they cut out the correct EVE 6 way
from my first post. Here is just the correct way:

Tune down a full step (Chord diagramD MajorD Chord diagramA augmentedA Chord diagramFF Chord diagramC majorC Chord diagramG+G Chord diagramD MajorD).

Use some distortion, typical EVE 6 sound, mid pickup
if playing a Strat-style guitar.

I will use the verse lyrics as cues for variations during
the verse, since I'm too lazy to count the bars and all.
You will pick it up quickly if you have the CD handy, it's
really pretty easy.

x = strum muted string
\ = slide up
P = palm mute
(7)=7th fret harmonic

Intro/Verse
-----------
   *-----This is the basic riff.-----*
G-3\-|-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9------|
D-4\-|-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9------|
A-4\-|-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7------|
E-2\-|-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7------------(7)(7)|

Play the above until you get to the line:
"He was the prodigal son..."
There you play this variation:

G-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9---9-|
D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9---9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-----------7---7-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|---------------------|
      He was the....had brought him home.

Now back to the standard riff, until "cute Guatemalan":

G-8-8-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7-x-9-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7-------------x---|
   ...with this cute Guatemalan.

D-9-9-----------9------|-9-9-----------9-x-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7------|-7-7-(7)(7)(7)-7-x-9-|
E-7-7------------(7)(7)|-7-7-------------x---|
          ...had only gotten him down.

Back to main riff until "together til...":

            P P  P P P  P
G-8-8-----------9-9-9-|-----9-------9-9-|
D-9-9-----------9-9-9-|-----9-------9-9-|
A-9-9-(7)(7)(7)-7-7-7-|-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|
E-7-7-----------------|-0-0---0-0-0---0-|

Just play this one bit over and over, listen to the CD

A-7-7---7-7---7-7---7-7-|
E-----------------------|
