500 chords by Lush

Lush 500

This excellent 1990s take on MerseyBeat sounds best with barre chords


E D

Chorus
A  D  E  D
Shake,

          A  D  E  D
You know

A  D  E  D
Brake

         A  D  E  D
Taking me


E  D


Verse 1
A  D  Bm  E
I've never

A  D  Bm  E
They call

F#m  G
Looking

F#m  F  E
They don't

Chorus

Verse 2
When things

Instrumental break
A  D  E  D, as in chorus, four times.
Next, each of these chords gets one downstroke, sustained for 4 beats each
(The notes in brackets are the bass guitar part, only where the bass notes are
not following the chord root notes):
D  E  A  F#m
D  E  A  C#m(G#)  G#(C)  G(B)
Then more rhythmic:
D  D  E  E,
slide the second D chord up to the first E (barred at fret 5, sliding up to fret 7),
then quiet for the chorus

Here’s the tab for the main lead theme (for me, string 6 is the thickest, or lowest
musical note, so it might look upside down to some folk)
