Song: Life Becoming a Landslide
Artist: Manics
Album: Gold Against the Soul
I may have got the timings a bit wrong but all the notes are right and work perfectly
me.
Verse:
Acoustic Riff at beginning (I put the note played on the B-string in brackets because it
also be played instead):
e-----------------------------------------------|
B--------(6)------------------------------------|
G-----------------------------------------------|
D-----------------------------------------------|
A-3h5-3-5-8-7-7-7h8-7-5-3-1-0-1-0---------------|
D---------------------------------3-3-3h5-3-0---| X4
Childbirth tears upon her muscles
Very first, second a screaming icon
Babies in time barely even recognise
Words that once stroked now bruising tired lips
Pre-Chorus:
D5 G5
My idea of love comes from
C5 F5
A childhood glimpse of pornography
D5 G5
Though there is no true love
Bb5 C5
Just a finely tuned jealousy
Chorus (ok I don't think these chords are completely accurate, but a good basis)
C5 G5 F5
Life becoming a landslide
Bb5 C5
Ice freezing, nature dead
C5 G5 F5
Life becoming a landslide
Bb5 C5
I don't wanna be a man

I usually play the last note like this for more effect:
e--

G---
D---
A---
E-/12
Everyday more numb to agony
This the howl, this the sigh of the lonely
One day I realise oil on canvas
Can never paint a petal oh so delicate
Then this:
