Comedown (Acoustic Chords) Bush Std Tuning (though I think it sounds better a 1/4 step down, 1/2 step (D#) is too far). Chords: B: 7-9-9-8-7-7 A: 5-7-7-6-5-5 * Can surely Drop D these and rock out (if so, play G,B,e strings open) F#: 2-4-4-3-2-2 I'm just trying to show a fuller, more acoustic feel G: 3-5-5-4-3-3 D: 10-12-12-11-10-10 There are some nice tabs of this song, but I thought I'd take a crack at an acoustic version that sounds really cool/nice and adds chords, lyrics, timing, etc. I think I offer some missing details that could be used back in the other tabs to fill in the electric/rock'n versions as well. Main riff: (x's are mutes/palms) | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | B A F# G e:|---------7-7-7---|---------5---5---|---------2-2-2---|---------3---3---| B:|---------7-7-7---|---------5---5---|---------2-2-2---|---------3---3---| G:|---------8-8-8---|---------6---6---|---------3-3-3---|---------4---4---| D:|-9-9-9-x-9-9-9-x-|-7-7-7-x-7---7-x-|-4-4-4-x-4-4-4-x-|-5-5-5-x-5---5-x-| A:|-9-9-9-x-9-9-9-x-|-7-7-7-x-7---7-x-|-4-4-4-x-4-4-4-x-|-5-5-5-x-5---5-x-| E:|-7-7-7-x-7-7-7-x-|-5-5-5-x-5---5-x-|-2-2-2-x-2-2-2-x-|-3-3-3-x-3---3-x-| Chorus riff: (x's are mutes/palms) | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . | D A G G e:|-10~-------10--10|-5-5-------5---5-|-3-------3---3---|-3-------3-3-3---| B:|-10~-------10--10|-5-5-------5---5-|-3-------3---3---|-3-------3-3-3---| G:|-11~-------11--11|-6-6-------6---6-|-4-------4---4---|-4-------4-4-4---| D:|-12~--x--12121212|-7-7--x--7-7-7-7-|-5---x-x-5---5-x-|-5---x-x-5-5-5-x-| A:|-12~--x--12--12--|-7-7--x--7---7---|-5---x-x-5---5-x-|-5---x-x-5---5-x-| E:|-10~--x--10--10--|-5-5--x--5---5---|-3---x-x-3---3-x-|-3---x-x-3---3-x-| There are several variations of both. For instance, the chorus part might just strum each out each chord 8x's per measure in parts. I'm just trying to explain what I think is the main feel for the song roots. Take as many liberties as you'd like. Intro: (Bass enters first, then main riff is played twice) B |A |F# |G |(x2) Verse 1: (w/ main riff - starts off mellower and more on bassy side) B A Love and hate...get it F# G wrong. She cut me right back down to B A size. Sleep the day, let it F# G fade. Who was there to take your B * A (*kick it up in volume on 3rd beat) place? No one knows...never F# G will! Mostly me but mostly B A you. What do you say, what do you F# G do, when it all comes down? Chorus: D A Cause I don't wanna come back down from G G this cloud. It's taken me D A all this time... to find out what I G G n-e-e-D... yeah. (yeah, yeah, yeah) D A No, I don't wanna come back down from G G this cloud! Cuz' it's taken me D A all this...all this... t---i---i---i---i-- G -ime. (back to main riff) B |A |F# |G |(x2) Verse 2: (same deal, mellow then pick up 2nd half) [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/b/bush/188229.html ] B A F# There is no blame o-n-l-y shame G B when you beg and just complain. A F# The more I come, the more I try... G B * all police are paranoid. A F# So am I, so's the future. G B So are you, be a creature. A F# What do you say, what do you do, G when it all comes down? Chorus: D A G Cause I don't wanna come back down from this cloud. G D A G G It's taken me all this time to find out what I need. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! D A G No, I don't wanna come back down from this cloud. G D A G G It's taken me all this, all this, t-i-i-i-i-me Bridge: (variation on main riff, i think) B A F# G shoot up, shoot up, shoot up you're high... oooh.. B A F# (1 strum, pause then) G hi--igh...hi--igh...high ("1, 2, 3, 4...") Verse 3: B A F# Love and hate get it wrong, G B she cut me right down to size! A F# Sleep the day, let it fade. G B Who was there to take your place?! A F# No one knows, never will! G B Could be me it could be you. A F# Oh what do you say, do ya do, G when it all comes down?! Chorus: D A G Cause I don't wanna come back down from this cloud. G D A G G Cuz' it's taken me all this time to find out what I need. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! D A G No, I don't wanna come back down from this cloud. G D A G G Cuz' it's taken me all this, all this, t-i-i-i-i-me! Outro: (play chorus chords, but intensely - full strum away - D definitely at 10th fret here) D A G G D A G G why did you, whydidju, why did you, whydidju, whydidju,whydidju,whydidu,why did you? D A G G Comedown? D A G G Comedown? D A G G I don't want to come back down from this cloud... from... D A G G this cloud... this cloud... this cloud... this cloud... from... D A G G this cloud... from...this cloud... this cloud... this cloud... D A G G (to fade, or end on D, or grab your violin if you have one and wrap things up) *END*  |
