"61C Days Turned to Nights" by Justin Sane (of Anti-Flag)
Tune down 1/2 step (to match recording)
/ *
E 2 2 4 2 0 (7)
B 4 4 4 2 0 9
G 4 4 4 3 1 9
D 4 4 6 4 2 9
A 2 1 6 4 2 7
E x x 4 2 0 (0)
You better know that X5 means X power chord.
You can get the rhythms and strumming patterns from the recording, as well as when to
mute (usually the power chords).
Verse 1
/
I'll catch you again someday
G#min G#min
on the streets of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
then again, maybe not
Where we can sit and reminisce about our younger years
and how we'd stay in bed all day
when you should've been in class
Chorus
* *
then, then in the night that light shown down upon you
*
made you look like the star that you were
* *
then in the night that light shown down upon you
*
made you look like the star that you are
Verse 2
/
Daytime thoughts on those streets
G#min G#min
through winter breezes, freezy gusts of wind
cutting razors to my years
those bitter cold days cast your silhouette
angel-like, through the fogged-up cafe glass
reality became a dream
Chorus
* *
then in the night that light shown down upon you
*
made you look like the star that you were yeah
* *
then in the night that light shown down upon you
*
that light shown down upon you
Bridge(let chords ring):
Driving you to the airport
watching you walk off to the
plane that did carry you away
you were too sad to look back to
wave goodbye
so I'm not going to tell you what you missed
And I'm not going to tell myself that I will ever find you
glowing in those lights again
cause I don't know if I will ever have that chance
but still I'll never forget those days we had
and I'll never forget those nights in the dark
in the pitch black moonlight
Verse 3 (arpeggios):
/
The streets of this town are still cold
and still windy but the 61C doesn't feel same
you said, "let's just leave it to fate"
so I guess I'll just have to leave it to fate
and wait, and remember those days turned to nights
Chorus
* *
When in the night that light shown down upon you
*
Made you look like the star that you were
* *
When in the night that light shown down upon you
*
Yeah
Verse 3 is arpeggioed plus some embellishment, and I didn't tab out the individual notes
the chords are basically the same. Maybe some other time. The other tricksy part is in
bridge right after "tell you what you missed". He palm mutes and does a pick-up chord. I
have it written as F# pick-up to B, which works, but he is probably doing only this:
E----
B---4
G---4
D-4--
A-4--
E----
