I love this song, and it's not very difficult to play. It is, however, difficult to
Each of the three verses, and two of the three choruses have a different chord
so... have fun with that.
The "G-D-Em" progression may also be A "G-walkdown-to-Em"
Spoon: The Underdog
Intro:
G... G-D
C Bm D G G-D (x2)
Em Am
Picture yourself in the living room
G
your pipe and slippers set out for you
Bm
I know you think that it ain't too far
Em C
But I hear the call of a lifetime ring
C- D- G
felt the need to get up for it
Am
Oh, you cut out the middleman
Bm
get free from the middleman
C G
You got no time for the messenger,
C D G
got no regard for the thing that you don't understand,
C Bm
you got no fear of the underdog,
D
that's why you will not survive
G C G D D G C-G
C Bm D G G-D x2
Em C
I want to forget how conviction fits
D G
but can I get out from under it?
Bm
Can I gut it out of me?
C G
It can't all be wedding cake
Am
It can't all be boiled away
Bm
I try but I can't let go of it
B
I can't let go of it,
C G
'Cause you don't talk to the water boy
C D G
and there's so much you could learn but you don't want to know,
C Bm
You will not back up an inch ever,
D
that's why you will not survive,
G C G D D G C-G
C Bm D G G-D
C Bm D G.... G-D
C Bm D G G-D
Em Am
The thing that I tell you now
D G G-D
It may not go over well
Em Am
And it may not be photo-op
D G G-D
in the way that I spell it out
C Bm
But you won't hear from the messenger,
C Bm G D
C
don't wanna know 'bout something that you don't understand,
Bm
You got no fear of the underdog,
D
that's why you will not survive
G C G D D G C-G
C Bm D G G-D x2
C Bm D
G C G D D G C-G
C Bm D G G-D
C Bm D G....
looks and sounds pretty good! thanks!
Each place you have G-D, I'd put a Bm instead of the D. Aside from that, pretty spot-on. Thanks for tabbing this great song.
I actually think it's a B instead of the Bm damian22 is talking about. And also at the part where it goes "got no regard for the thing that you don't understand", you need to add a B C at the end.
