Guitar chords with lyrics

Tame Impala - Let It Happen
INTRO

A  F#m G#sus4    x4


VERSE 1 [0:27]
A             F#m                G#sus4
 It's always around me, all this noise but
A              F#m       G#sus4
 Not nearly as loud as a voice singing
A              F#m          G#sus4
 Let it happen, let it happen (It's gonna feel so good)
A                   F#m          G#sus4
 Just let it happen, let it happen

CHORUS [0:56]
D#m       B
 All this running around
C#         F#
 Trying to cover my shadow
D#m       B
 An ocean growing inside
C#           F#
 Now all the others seem shallow
D#m       B
 All this running around
C#       F#
 Bearing down on my shoulders
D#m    B
 I can hear an alarm
C#       C#sus4
 Must be morning


POST-CHORUS [1:27]

A  F#m G#sus4    x4


VERSE 2 [1:44]
A                     F#m                 G#sus4
 I heard about a whirlwind that's coming around
A                     F#m            G#sus4
 It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound, and
A                F#m             G#sus4
 When it happens, when it happens (I'll be holding on)
A                 F#m
 So let it happen, let it happen


CHORUS [2:09]
D#m       B
 All this running around
C#       F#
 I can't fight it much longer
D#m          B
 Something's trying to get out
C#        F#
 And it's never been closer
D#m    B
 If my ticker fails
C#       F#
 Make up some other story
D#m       B
 But if I never come back
C#       F#
 Tell my mother I'm sorry


SOLO (this continues until around [4:04], where the synth comes in)

   A                    F#m         G#sus4        A                    F#m         G#sus4

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|-10--------10-12-10-9----9--------9-10-9--------10--------10-12-10-9----9--------------------------|

A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

*: this note is the first of each subsequent sentence, so it replaces the first 10 played on the B-string
   and sometimes he plays a 7 here


SYNTH INTERMEZZO  [4:04]

(in A)


BACK TO FIRST PART [5:06]

A  F#m G#sus4    x4


VERSE 3 [5:29]
A                 F#m
 And it means, we move on ice giving
 G#sus4
Trying to get dreaming

 A
Trying to pose living
    F#m                         G#sus4
You knew I'm not thinking that I would let you in

A
Any other silver
     F#m
And I would just do it
 G#sus4
Get the meshed thinking

 A
Get the meshed dreaming
 F#m
Why would I do it
 G#sus4
Anyone'd think that

 A                    F#m
I could not do it, we move on ice giving
 G#sus4
Trying to get dreaming

A
Trying to pose living
    F#m                         G#sus4
You knew I'm not thinking that I would let you in

A
Any other silver
     F#m
And I would just do it
 G#sus4
Get the meshed thinking

 A
Get the meshed dreaming
 F#m
Why would I do it
 G#sus4
Anyone'd think that
