IDLEWILD - AMERICAN ENGLISH (best version here) I first heard this song when i saw them live at Brixton Academy supporting the Hives. I fell in love with this song. Anyways - enjoy it. This is the best tab of this song on here, the rest are so rubbish I had to tab it myself. This is my first tab - hope you think it sounds ok!!! Have fun Chords to use: B - 799877 - 466444 E - 022100 F# - 244322 Intro: (this is played 3 times before the chords + vocals kick in) Guitar 1 plays this throughout every verse. e-----------------| B-13--------------| G---12------------| D------15---14----| A-----------------| E-----------------| Verse 1 Songs when they're true, are all dedicated to you In this invisible world I choose to live in And if you believe that for now I understand Why words mean so much to you They'll never be about you Verse 2 Maybe you're young without youth Maybe you're old without, knowing anything's true I think you're young without youth.... Pre Chorus - drums begin, riff stops. Then you contract the American dream You never look up once You've contracted American dreams (slide up to ) I require you to stop and look up. Chorus Sing a song about myself Keep singing a song about myself Not some invisible world (guitar 1 plays riff again) Verse 3 - same chords as above Constantly searching to find something new But what will you find when you think that nothing's true? Maybe it's that nothing is new Verse 4 So you let me hear songs that were written all about you Because songs weren't written for you They'll never be about you Pre Chorus Chorus x 2 Middle Bit And I won't tell you what this means, cause you already know And I won't tell you what this means, cause you already know....... So - Sing a song about myself Keep singing a song about myself Not some invisible world You came along and found the weak spot - that you've always wanted Let yourself be everything that youve always wanted (While this is sung - the chorus is sung it) It doesnt have to be so silent - that you've always wanted no need for explanations - that you've always wanted Ending You'll find, what you find when you find theres nothing x 2 End on
