ONE HIT WONDER
One Hit Wonder, wow, this took me FOREVER to finally get figured out.
After many requests, and hours of finger stiffening work, here it is:
chords: (there are basically 4)
*the strings are in order from bottom to top (1-6)
Db: 0-9-10-11-11-0
Gb: 0-2-3-4-4-0
Ab: 0-4-5-6-6-0
Cb: 0-7-8-9-0-0
verse (it goes in a similar pattern the whole song)
Db_____________________Gb
Loppy says he likes it up on top
Db
Yes he knows if he ever lets go
___Gb
The pretty machine will swallow him whole
Ab_______Gb__________Db
He has no fear he has no sense of shame
_________Ab______________Gb_
He will not stop until everybody everywhere wants
___Db
to know his name
(after verse2 it goes:)
__Db
He says he wants to live the kind of life
_______Gb
That will make the folks back home
All bitch and whine
Ab___________Gb___________Db
He knows if he ever even gets a chance
_________Cb
To sell his soul to make the monster dance
Gb______Ab_________________Db
They can't hurt you unless you let them
comments? praise? questions?

| I love this song! Art has said that it is kinda a burn on the media, who is the "monster," or something like that. This is the song I listen to when I've had a tough day. | |

| back with the release of S&F, the critics were like "Everclear will be a one hit wonder" and then they were a big hit and Art was like "Yeah, a one hit wonder five times over" so it was like a big middle finger. | |

| Yep, Art is asking the 'one-hit wonders' if they can really handle it all since many artists tend to become corporat controlled. Loopy is either a bandmember or the name of the band, the pretty machine is probably fame, and the monster is probably the music executives | |
