Beauty of the Ride by Sebadoh >From the Album "Harmacy" Standard Tuning (EADGBE) Opening Riff e--2---2-----2----5-5-5--| B--2-----3---2----5-5-5--| G--4-------2-4----7-7-7--| (x 4) D--4---------4----7-7-7--| A--x---------X----X-X-X--| E--X---------X----X-X-X--| Never did and never will, That's the way its always been I've made mistakes before I'll make the same again And all this tension we ignore Surely works its ugly way..... inside Repeat pattern for Verse Two I have known that nothing's fair What could I expect When magic slips into the air And every day's another test And all this tension we ignore Surely works its ugly way.... outside Chorus: So let it build, let it explode Leaving blood and shattered bone Or bite your tongue til you've forgotten what to say And take another step back Until you find you've walked away Opening Riff (4 times) Bm (cut off) Silence like disease, (upstroke, let ring) But I dare not say it hurts (muted) Cause if I honestly react (both muted) Nothing's ever gonna work And all this tension back and forth It's just the beauty of the ride... It's just the beauty of the ride.... Repeat Chorus Repeat Opening Riff times 4 That's all folks! This really isn't a difficult song....just listen to the album for the timing....
