SONG TITLE: I'm Nuthin' ARTIST/GROUP: Ethan Hawke ALBUM: Reality Bites Soundtrack CHORDS: ------- EADGBE EADGBE EADGBE A (x0222x) Eb* (xx1202) Dsus2 (xx0230) A* (x0423x) Esus4 (022200) Em (022000) E (022100) F#m (244222) G (320033) D (xx0232) Bm (x24432) G* (320030) Asus2 (x02200) Bsus2 (x24422) This song was played in the movie Reality Bites and it was the actor Ethan Hawke who sang it. I really like this song. But in the movie he just plays VERSE 1 and then the CHORUS/OUTRO. The first chorus, which was not played in the movie, has totally different chords than the CHORUS/OUTRO. Enjoy! When you're playing the A chord, most of the time you should play it like this: A A* A A* A E|--------------------------------------------| B|--2-2---2---3--3--3-2-3-2--2---2---3--3-2---| G|--2-2---2---2--2--2-2-2-2--2---2---2--2-2---| D|--2-2---2---4--4--4-2-4-2--2---2---4--4-2---| A|--0-0---0---0--0--0-0-0-0--0---0---0--0-0---| E|--------------------------------------------| It's played like that in all the verses and the intro. The only comfortable way to play this is to use your index finger to play the A chord, then when you play the A* you can just hammer on the D and B strings with your middle and ring finger. Like Keith Richards does. When you see something like 'D (sus2)' it just means play the D chord but throw in the Dsus2 a bit. A lot of times he plays A and then throws in a Asus2 for instance. OK, then you should be ready to play the song. INTRO: [play like tab above] ------ A VERSE 1: [remember, play A chords like tab above] -------- A Got a pothead mama, got a cokehead dad [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/m/misc-soundtrack/334571.html ] I'm an ultramodern version of the American man E Esus4 E I don't feel good, but don't feel bad D E A Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' VERSE 2: [play like verse 1] -------- Ain't no republicrat, no demmican, they ain't nuthin' in between I'm sick of people talkin' about American dreams Cause that's all gone, ain't nothin' left for me Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' CHORUS: ------- F#m E Bm (sus2) I ain't left, I ain't right, people say I'm wrong F#m E A (sus2) Before I was born, oh that was all gone F#m E Eb* Don't even make sense that I wrote this song, oh D E A [play this A chord like in the verses] Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' I'm nuthin' BRIDGE: ------- G A (sus2) Don't want no big TV, or no flashy garage G A (sus2) Never would cut it in no corporate job Em G* Dsus2 People see me coming, they say 'hey, look at that slob' D E A [play this A chord like in the verses] Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' I'm nuthin' VERSE 3: [play like verses 1 & 2] -------- Got a pothead mama, got a cokehead dad I'm an ultramodern version of the American man Don't feel good, but I don't feel bad Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' CHORUS/OUTRO: ------------- D I ain't left, I ain't right, people say I'm wrong A (sus2) Before I was born, oh that was all gone F#m E Eb* Don't even make sense that I wrote this song, oh D E A Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin' A I'm nuthin' A I'm nuthin' A [keep playing the A chord here like I'm nuthin' it was played in the verses] A I'm nuthin' A That's me A I'm nuthin' |
