---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Distant and Faded –By Jamestown Story (Formerly “And Then I Turned Seven”) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tuning: Standard Key: Notes: Strum patterns are indicated only in a few instances. This tab is written for a single guitar, though there is some electric guitar in the song. Main chords used (I have shortened the chord names): e|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--| B|--1--|--1--|--3--|--5--|--0--| G|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|--x--| D|--0--|--0--|--0--|--0--|--9--| A|--3--|--3--|--5--|--7--|--9--| E|--1--|--0--|--3--|--5--|--7--| Intro: (x4) (x2) Note: I think the strum pattern here is: V V V^V | ^ ^V^ ^V^ Hence, for F/E and G, the first strum is an up-strum Verse 1: And all these distant faded memories of everything I used to be Are bringing me down; yeah, they're bringing me down And the leading cause of death I plead is from my insecurity And it's bringing me down; yeah, it's bringing me down Chorus: Down........ Down........ Post-chorus: Note: The strum pattern for the second half is V^ ^ ^V | ^ ^V V^ Verse 2: Yeah, hope is all I really need to wash my selfishness and greed But there's no hope to be found; no, I've looked all around And if this life that I've led only leads to tears in bed Then I won't hang around; no, I won't hang around Repeat chorus twice Bridge: Play the following riff twice: e|--------------------------------------------------------------| B|-----1------1------3------3-----5-------5-------3-------3-----| G|--------------------------------------------------------------| D|---0--0---0--0---0--0---0--0---0--0---0---0---0---0---0---0---| A|-3------3------5------5------7------7-------5-------5---------| E|--------------------------------------------------------------| Note: Now, one guitar plays the chords below, while the other continues playing the riff You can play the chords here as power chords, if you wish. Now I've come to conclusions that I'm empty I thought I still had everything in me Repeat verse 1, except last line is: And it's bringing me down; Down... End on G
