Chords with lyrics
¨Belong¨
Chords by: David A. Grimmer ([email protected])
GUITAR 1:
The chords for the verses are always strummed with a slow downstroke near
the bridge on the first beat of each measure. They are G, C/G, Dsus4/G,
and back to G. At the same time the backup vocalist sings G, C, D, and
rests for the 4th measure.
G+G C/GC/G G5G5

Fret 2 _ * _ _ _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Fret 3 * _ _ _ * * * * _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ * *
The Refrain uses the same chords, but is strummed with the following
rhythm pattern:
1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a
s s s s e _ s e _ s s s s s s s
You can mess around with this pattern a little bit as the muse inspires
you, but since repetition is what really drives this song, you should
mostly stick to it.
GUITAR 2:
The part that was listed as the ¨guitar into¨ on your web page is
basically it. That part is also played during the first two verses. If
you want to give your second guitarist a little more to do, they can strum
along with the Guitar 1 during the refrain using another chord voicing. I
personally like this one (do not strum either E-string):
G+G C/GC/G Dsus4/G
Fret 10 _ * _ _ _ _ _ * * _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ _
Fret 11 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Fret 12 _ _ * * * _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ _ * * X _
Fret 13 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ * _ _ _ _ _ _ _
BASS:
The meat & potatoes of this song, but not too tough to play. You may want
to let some of the vocal duties be handled by the bassist (but *not* the
spoken word part! The bass must stay on the beat, and the spoken vocals
must remain independent of it... This can become a lot like the old ¨pat
your head and rub your stomache¨ trick).
During the into & verses, stay put on the low G+G (yes, you are a petal
tone) using the following rhythm:
1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a
q _ _ _ e _ s e _ (rest)
For the refrain, play on G+G for the first measure, C majorC on the second, and
back to G+G for the next two, using the following rhythm (mess around with it
a lot):
1 e + a 2 e + a 3 e + a 4 e + a
q _ _ _ e _ s e _ e _ s e _ e _
There are also two bass fills that are used un the refrian, both at the
end of a phrase. The first, and more frequest, is this:
q e se se e e
e |3---3-33-30-1-2|
The other is simply a desending G-maj scale:
e e se e e e se
g |----------------|
d |----54-2--------|
a |---------5-3-2--|
e |3-3-----------5-|
These fills can be inserted at will during the refrain, as long as some
tasteful restraint is used.
