okay. so i thought, this being a guns song, i'd tune my guitar flat a half step. i think it's actually a whole step. actually it's probably in drop c, or something ridiculous. you can probably tell i don't play metal a lot. but oh well. these are all power chords and fifths anyway. you can always transpose. but it's a crazy song, so you're going to play an ass load of barred chords anyway. deal. Section 1: (these aren't official, it's just the way i like to break the song up) Riff Ab See you've caught me in a coma Abm F# F#m And I don't think I want to ever come back to this world again E Kinda like it in a coma Em G D F# C# 'Cause no one's ever gonna make me come back to this world again C#m Now I feel as if I'm floating away B I can't feel the pressure and I like it this way Bm But my body's calling, my body's calling D A C# Ab Want me to come back to this world again Abm Suspended deep in a sea of black F# I got the light at the end, I got the bones on the mast F#m Well, I've gone sailing, I've gone sailing A# E# I could leave so easily A# C# My friends are calling back to me G# Eb I said yeah, they're leaving it all up to me when F#m E All I needed was clarity (alternate between B and Bb) And someone to tell me what the fuck is going on Riff Ab B / C#7 / F# / A (or F#m) / E Slippin' farther and farther away B (alternate between Bb and A) It's a miracle how long we can stay in a world our minds created In a world that's full of shit Riff C# G# Please understand me Bb I'm climbin' through the wreckage of all my twisted dreams F And this cheap investigation just can't stifle all my screams F# C# And I'm waiting at the crossroads D# Waiting for you, waiting for you Ab Where are you? Section 2 Ab No one's gonna bother me anymore No one's gonna mess with my head no more I can't understand what all the fightin's for But it's so nice here down off the shore I wish you could see this, cause there's nothing to see It's peaceful here and it's fine with me Not like the world where I used to live I never really wanted to live Riff Guitar solo: F# G# / G#m / F# / F#m / E / Em / B / F# / C# / G# / B / Bm / F# // E / B / (alternate between Bb and A) Riff G# G#m Live your life like it's a coma, won't you tell me why we'd want to? F# F#m With all the reasons you give it's kinda hard to believe Section 3 [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/g/guns-n-roses/350050.html ] E B But who am I to tell you that I've seen any reason why you should stay (there's a crazy break here) Maybe we'd be better off without you anyway Crazy break (goes something like): e||-----------------------|| B||-----------------------|| G||-----------------------|| D||-------------------1---|| A||-4---3---2---1-2-4---4-|| E||---4---3---3-----------|| Bb C# I got a one way ticket on your last chance ride G# D# Got a one way ticket to your suicide C# (alternate between B and Bb) Got a one way ticket and there's no way out alive D# F# And all this crass communication that has left you in the cold C# G# Isn't much for consolation when you feel so weak and old B F# But if home is where the heart is then there's stories to be told (alternate between E and D#) No, you don't need a doctor, no one else can heal your soul Abm B Got your mind in submission, got your life on the line F# C# But nobody pulled the trigger they just stepped aside E B (alternate between A and Ab) They'll be down by the water while you watch 'em wavin' goodbye C# They'll be callin' in the morning E They'll be hanging on the phone B They'll be waitin' for an answer F# But you know nobody's home A E (alternate between D and C#) And when the bells stop ringing it was nobody's fault but your own F#m There were always ample warning A There were always subtle signs E B And you would have seen them coming but we gave you too much time D And when you said that no one's listening A Why'd your best friend drop a dime (alternate between G and F#) Sometimes we get so tired of waiting for a way to spend our time B And it's so easy to be social D It's so easy to be cool A E Yeah, its easy to get hungry when you ain't got shit to lose G D And I wish that I could help you with what you hope to find (alternate between C and B) But I'm still out here waiting watching reruns of my life When you reach the point of breaking Know it's gonna take some time to heal those broken memories Em That another man would need just to survive (that last chord - the Em - might not be a minor. the note axl settles on is the major third, which is G#, but unless you're planning to replicate his singing exactly you might as well play the minor. it sounds better. or just a power chord, as you're presumerably been playing for the whole song.) |
