START THE MACHINE (Acoustic Interpretation) by Angels and Airwaves Tabbed by: The Count of Monte Cristo Tuning: Standard (Key of E) INTRODUCTION: This interpretation of the 'tinker-toy/xylophone' intro has kind of a classical feel. It sounds best when plucked. The intro is based around an E chord. e|-------------------------------------| B|-9-7-------------9-7-----------------| G|-----9-8-9-----------9-8-9-----------| D|-------------9---------------7-------| A|-7---------------7-------------------| E|-----------0---0-----------0---0-----| The second part of the intro can be strummed, but the root strings are focused on. Listen to the song so you can consolidate the tab and the rhythm. e|-0~~~-----0~~~----0~~~-0~~~--| B|-0~~~-----0~~~----0~~~-0~~~--| G|-9~~~-----9~~~----9~~~-9~~~--| D|-9~~~9----9~~~9---9~~~-9~~~--| A|-7~~~7-6--9~~~9-6-X~~~-X~~~--| E|-0~~~-----X-------9~~~-7~~~--| Here are the chords used in the rest of the song: E A2 C#m Bsus Eb e|--0-- --0-- --0-- --0-- --0-- B|--0-- --0-- --0-- --0-- --0-- G|--9-- --2-- --6-- --4-- --9-- D|--9-- --2-- --6-- --4-- --9-- A|--7-- --0-- --4-- --2-- --6-- E|--0-- --X-- --X-- --X-- --X-- VERSE 1: [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/a/angels-and-airwaves/224925.html ] E Eb The ash set in, then blew away, C#m A2 Bsus It's getting lost into the sea. E Bsus I grew so close to all the thoughts I had (Bsus) To leave forever, C#m A2 I left the chill and voice of screams of kids Bsus And ran for shelter. (same for verse 2) CHORUS: E You know I won't say sorry, Eb You know I won't say sorry. C#m The pain has a bad reaction, A2 Bsus A blend of fear and passion. E Bsus You know what it's like to believe, (Bsus) E It makes me want to scream. BRIDGE: E I see the stars, they're in your eyes, A2 Bsus A playful kiss, can't you tell I'm excited? E A fast escape in the nick of time, A Bsus You lost your wish, can I help you to find it? E I'm on my knees, just one to start, A Bsus A fresh new start, don't be undecided, E If love's the word that you say, Bsus Then say it - I will listen. E If love's the word that you say, Bsus Then say it - I will listen. That's about it. Hope you kind of get the feel for it. Any questions or correcting, just leave some comment love. Cheers, Conde |
