The A-B-D progression is also used in the instrumental interlude. If you don't want to bother with the Dsus2Dsus2 and Bsus2Bsus2 just play D MajorD and BB instead, it will still sound good. **************************************************************************** A augmentedA Go back to those gold soundz BB D MajorD And keep my affect to yourself A augmentedA Because it's nothing that I don't like BB D MajorD Is it a crisis or a boring change A augmentedA When it's central, so essential BB D MajorD It has a nice ring when you laugh A augmentedA At the low-life opinions BB D MajorD And they're coming to the chorus now F# minorF#m Dsus2Dsus2 I keep my address to yourself Bsus2Bsus2 Cause we need secrets Dsus2Dsus2 We need secret, cret, cret, cret, crets A augmentedA Back right now Because I never want to make you feel That you're social, never ignorant soul Believe in what you want to do And do you think that is a major flaw When they rise up in the falling rain And if you stay around with your knuckles ground down The trials over, the weapon's found Keep my address to myself Cause it's secret Cause it's secret, cret, cret,cret,cret,cret,cret,cret,cret,cret,cret,cret, Back right now So drunk in the august sun And you're the kind of girl I like Because you're empty, and I'm empty And you can never quarantine the past Did you remember in December That I won't eat you when I'm gone And if I go there ,I won't stay there Because I'm sitting here too long I've been sitting here too long And I've been wasting Allocating outward For the last word Last words come up All you've got to wait **************************************************************************** Now for some "Pavement chords". First retune your guitar to C-G-D-G-B-B (fat E MajorE string down 4 frets in pitch, A augmentedA string down 2 frets in pitch, thin E MajorE sting down 5 frets in pitch). Once you've retuned these are the chord shapes: A(I) A(II) B(I) B(II) Bsus2Bsus2 D(I) D(II) Dsus2Dsus2 F# minorF#m B-|------------------------------------------------------------------------ B-|--2-------10--------4-------12-----4--------7-----15------7-------10---- G-|--2--------9--------4-------11-----6--------7-----14------9-------11---- D-|--2-------11--------4-------13-----4--------7-----16------7-------11---- G-|--2--------9--------4-------11-----4--------7-----14------7-------11---- C-|-----------9----------------11--------------------14-------------------- The (I) or (II) just indicates position, e.g. A(I) is an A augmentedA major, played in the first position (along the guitar neck), while A(II) is also A augmentedA major but played in the second position. Note that the first string is not played in any of the above chords. Since the first and second strings are tuned the same, if you want, you can fret the first string the same as the second and play it. >From listening to the recording, I think the two guitars play as follows: verses: guitar 1: A(I) - B(I) - D(I) guitar 2: A(II) - A(II) - A(II) Here guitar 2 is playing the A(II) the whole time. Listen for those high notes on the record, especially during the first verse when guitar 1 is quit. chorus: both: F# minorF#m - Dsus2Dsus2 - Bsus2Bsus2 - Dsus2Dsus2 intrumental interlude (roughly): guitar 1: A(I) - B(I) - D(I) guitar 2: A(II) - B(II) - D(II) The interlude is pretty free form so this simple pattern isn't the whole story, but you can play around with these chords and find a lot of the sounds on the record. michael p mccullough ++++ Klamath Falls OR # 1.541.884.3278 [email protected] [email protected] all moanday, tearsday, wailsday, thumpsday, frightday, shatterday (joyce/FW) http://www.magick.net/~michael/ http://www.magick.net/~michael/music.html
