Chords with lyrics
Roads by Portishead
-------------------
Tabbed by Frederic Maquet
The 
A minorAm chord is sometimes "sussed" to add a transition, but mostly
chords
are just strummed once with lots of echo and reverb and a bit of
distortion. The strumming can be slightly tricky if you're singing at
the same time, so listen to the record to get it right.
Intro/Verse:
A minorAm 
G6G6 
Fmaj7Fmaj7 
E7E7 
FF 
G+G
A minorAm
e:-----------------0-----|----1--------0----|------|--------------------

Drums come in...
Verse 1:
--------
A minorAm G6G6 Fma7 E7E7 A minorAm
Oho, can't anybody see? You gotta walk to find me,
G6G6 Fmaj7Fmaj7 E7E7
Never found our way, regardless, of what they say
FF G+G A minorAm FF
How can it feel, this wrong? From this moment,
G+G A minorAm
How can if feel, this wrong?
Verse 2: (same chords as previously) Chords have more echo here
--------
A minorAm G6G6 Fmaj7Fmaj7 E7E7 A minorAm
Stoned, in the morning light, I feel, no more
G6G6 Fmaj7Fmaj7 E7E7 FF G+G
Can I say, frozen, to myself, I got nobody on my side,
A minorAm
And surely that ain't right
FF G+G A minorAm
Surely that ain't right.
Verse 3:
--------
Same as verse 1, except with strings..Also, 2nd A minorAm is sussed,
if you see what I mean...(play 2nd A minorAm as Am->Asus4->G6)
Until:
FF G+G A minorAm FF
How can it feel, this wrong, from this moment
G+G E7E7
How can it feel, this wrong?
Break:
------
Play intro (with a lot of bass A, G, F, 
E MajorE) up to:
FF G+G A minorAm FF
How can it feel, this wrong, from this moment
G+G E7E7
How can it feel, this wrong?
Play Verse 1 again (the same way as in intro).
Ends on: A minorAm
"...this wrong."
Other ways of playing some chords:
----------------------------------
Fmaj7Fmaj7 Amsus4 A minorAm G6G6 or
e:--0---------------0-----3--0--|
B:--1---------5-----1-----5--0--| The 1st G6G6 voicing is a bit crap,
G:--2---------7-----2-----4--0--| but Fmaj7Fmaj7 and A minorAm and 2nd G6G6 are easier
D:--3---------7-----2-----x--0--| to play like this on an accoustic
A:--3---------7-----0-----5--2--| and sound better..
E:--0---------5-----------3--3--|
