BAND: 7 Mary 3 SONG: Cumbersome Well, after listening to Seven-Mary-Three I've pretty much figured out the basic rythm of the song Cumbersome. It's pretty simple, actually. It follows a: F# - E - B pattern with moderate muting of the strings F# - 2 4 4 3 2 2 E - 0 2 2 1 0 0 B - 2 2 4 4 4 -
And after he sings, "Oh no, no no no" I believe it's B - E. Listen to the song and you will get the basic jist of it. It sounds like a great song to play unplugged. Since I don't have the album I can't really write the lyrics out. Have fun. I've also attempted to determine the bassline, although I don't have the music with me RIGHT now...Here goes, sort of a walking bassline. x = mute G------------------------------------------------------------------------ D---------------------------------2--2--x-x-x--2--2----4--2-------------- A-----------------------------2-4----------------------------5--4--2--2-- E--2--2---x-x-x---2--2----2-4-------------------------------------------- G--------------------------------------------- D--------------------------------------------- A-x-x-x--2--2---4--2-------------------------- E---------------------5--4--2--2--x-x-x--2---- Any comments, questions, or marriage proposals write to Ledig@ee.fit.edu Transcribed by Kevin Ledig
