Êîììåíòàðèé: "Barenaked Ladies Rock Spectacle"
The Old Apartment
This song isn't much trouble, with the help of a piano playing
aquaintance we worked it up, and pretty much by ear and memory, here's
the extent of it.
capo 3rd fret
G D C G
broke into the old apartment
G D C
this is where we used to live
G D C G
broken glass, broke and hungry, broken hearts and broken bones
G D C
this is where we used to live
Em D C
why did you paint the walls?
Em D C
why did you clean the floor?
Em D C D G
why did you plaster over, the hole I punched in the door?
G D C
this is where we used to live
Em D C
why did you keep the mousetrap?
C D G
why did you keep the dish rack?
G D C D *mute*
these things used to be mine, I guess they still are I want 'em back
G D C G
broke into the old apartment
G D C G
forty-two stairs from the street
G D C D G
crooked landing, crooked landlord, narrow landway filled with crooks
G D C
this is where we used to live
Em D C
why did they pave the lawn?
Em D C
why did they change the locks?
G D C D G
why did I have to break in? I only came here to talk
G D C
this is where we used to live
G D C
how is the neighbor downstairs?
C D G
how is her temper this year?
G D C D
I turned up your TV and stomped on the floor just for fun
(softly here, getting louder slowly after 2nd phrase, ending with hard
strums on "I'm happy there")
Em D G C
I know we don't live here anymore
Em D G C
we bought an old house on the danforth
Em D G D C
she loves me and her body keeps me warm
C D G
I'm happy there
(normal volume now)
G D C
but this is where we used to live
G D C
broke into the old apartment
G D C
tore the phone out of the wall
G D C G
only memories, faded memories blending into dull tableaux
G D C D G
i want them back.. this is where we used to live
G D C D G
i want them back.. this is where we used to live
G D C
i want them back..
G
C
D
Em
This is my first tab put into here, I hope it works, and I hope you
enjoy it. On that last C chord, Ed does this thing going up a step kinda,
and I'm assuming he's putting 2 extra light strums in to put a voicing
with the 3rd fret on the 2nd string... I dunno, mess with it a little,
and you'll get it with little trouble. Also all of the first chords on
each phrase are hit a beat before the lyric comes in, not right on it. :)
