“Photograph” by Nickelback.
Tab by Mr Tez
One of Nickelback’s best ever songs. I couldn’t find any accurate
tabs on here - so here
it is. Anyway this is 100% correct. But Chad Kroeger uses bar
chords in the video clip;
but I think for the CD he used open chords. The tuning for this
song is ½ step down; but
you can play it in normal tuning but it sounds like the CD in ½ step
down. That’s D# G# C# F# A# D#

| This is the full version of the song. There might be a radio edit floating around too... which cuts the first two lines of the second verse out (the part about the arcade and the cops). It also shortens the bridge to 2 lines instead of three (combining the first 2 lines into this: I miss that town, I can't believe it, So hard to stay, too hard to leave it. I could relive those days. I know the one thing that would never change. Then it goes back into the chorus. Personally I hope radio doesn't chop off those parts... I'm sure I speak for many guys when I say I spent a lot of time in my childhood in an arcade... can't say I got in much trouble... but this story makes me think back to simpler times... when all you cared about were video games, cartoons, your friends, and good food (and homework at some times). This is about Chad and his friends growing up in their hometown... they actually went back to their hometown and shot the video in their old high school. | |

| Well I just started college, and I kinda wish I could go back to highschool or even earlier when there were not a lot of worries, just fun, and a lot of laughs. Anyways, I think he is just sitting back in a car driving down a country road thinking of the good times he has had back in the days of highschool or just when he was a kid and everything thing was so new, fun and light hearted. | |

| OK I am speaking my mind....... everything I have ever heard out of nickel back with the exception of never again and because of you sucked complete ass..... here is the progression of the style of vocals..... Kurt Cobain-Nirvana Begat: Gavin Rossdale - Bush and That pussy from Silverchair from which was begat: Chad Kroeger of nickel back's debut album "Curb" from which was begat: the guys of Crossfade...... I never forgot how Chad Kroeger tried so hard to sound like Kurt Cobain on "curb" and miserably failed in the process.... then tried to do the whole "pop-rock" thing and pretty much made an ass out of himself again... Until I heard this song, This song finds Chad mature and reflecting on his life, and if i do say so it finds him doing so quite well, i never ever thought i'd ever see the day where i complmented nickel back but i have to tip my hat to them, they have found their place and they can play very good,.,.,.,.,.,.,. But still in order to atone for the horrible sins he has done against Kurt Cobain...... Nickel Back MUST put together an amazing album, I dont just mean "good according to the same teen/preteen girls who have green day american idiot ringtones" I mean actually good and solid musically and original..... but the first snippet off of the album that i have heard ( this song) is pretty damn good ....... thanks for the read | |
