DETUNE GUITAR 1 SEMITONE TO Eb

D# G# C# F# Bb D#

---------------------------------------------------------


Intro:

D (x68886x) C# (x57775x)

-When playing the C#, hit the b and e strings with an up stroke.

VERSE:

-This is the basic verse melody, although it does fluctuate.
Stick around this and you should be ok. Play it in a relaxed way
with alternate picking.

B-----------------------------------------
G----------8-------------------8------------
D---8-8-----8-7----8-8-------8---8--------
A-6-----6--------6------6---------6--------
E-----------------------------------------


I'd rather, I'd rather....
D (x68886x) C# (x57775x)

CHORUS:

D (x688xx), C# (x577xx), F (x91111xx) X8.

Listen to the song to work out the pattern in which you play these chords.

Back to verse melody...

I'd rather, I'd rather.... CHORUS...

SECTION 3:

A (x13x15xx) G# (x12x14xx) after playing the G#, use you 4th finger to hammer on: b-16.
Again listen to see the pattern.


Chorus... Section 3...

End. G# (x12x14xx) A (x13x15xx), A# (x14x16xx)

I love this song, I wish it had been the first Idlewild song I ever heard. It's not much good but Roddy Woomble's lyrics really grab me even though they're mostly shit and overindulgent. I bet he's done a theoryful degree and like the rest of us has no idea how to put it to good use. 1
