Hey guys! Great some here from an awesome unknown band...this is the best I can come up
for playing this song (I think that there must be two guitars playing at the same time
the recording or the guitar is in a weird tuning, but I promise this works well). PS I
up those "G" chords' names to make this easier to read.
Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb eb (this is just to play along with the recording, sounds fine in standard)
Chords:
: 3x0033
: 3x0233
: 3x0433
Cadd2: x30033
: 022033
Dadd4/: 200233
: x00232
note: the easiest way to play those G chords is to play the low E string with your
your not comfortable doing that then I would suggest just playing G G2 G G2 for the intro/verse
Intro:
VERSE 1:
When the dollar made with blood is spent
When an enemy can't become a friend
Cadd2
When the better man won't lend a hand
Baby this is how the world will end
When a day of hope is a rarity,
Or a diplomat hasn't time to see
That a child lost is a true offense,
Baby, this is how the world will end.
CHORUS:
Cadd2
Bring a chair up to the table.
Cadd2
Bring a message to the crowd.
Cadd2 Cadd2
Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched and the proud?
Cadd2
Sing a tune about the promise.
Cadd2
Speak on that which we depend.
Cadd7
And if a certain light don't shine again,
Baby, this is how the world will end.
VERSE 2:
When the poorest kid is fending for himself,
Or the widow cries, but she gets no help.
When we know what's true, but we still pretend,
Baby, this is how the world will end.
CHORUS
SOLO
CHORUS
Bring a chair up to the table.
Bring a message to the crowd.
Where's a common trust to deliver us from the wretched and the proud?
Sing a tune about the promise.
Speak on that which we depend.
Now let that certain light come shinin' then,
Baby, we could change the world again.
Cadd2
But if that certain light don't shine again,
Baby, this is how the world will end.
Enjoy! And definitely go out and see the Elms if you get a chance, they even better live!
