Hi there, one of the many great The Living End songs out there. Tried to make it sound as close to the original as possible. The first half of the Bridge is picked rather than strummed but it's up to you. Open to suggested improvements and as always, recommend listening to the original song before trying to learn or play it.Was this info helpful?

Are these strumming patterns correct?

[Intro]
D   Em  x4
 
 
[Verse 1]
D   Em
         We are here together,
D   Em
         But we are alone
D   Em
         Feels like forever,
D   C
         We’ve been on our own
D   Em
         We took a wrong turn,
D   Em
         Along this road
D   Em
         Now were drifting,
D   C
         Far from home
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C   D
         We never finish,
G   D
         Anything in life
C   D                 D
         We just run out of time
 
 
[Chorus]
Em         Bm      C
   Drop the needle, turn me on
Em         Bm      C              D
   Can you feel it, go on and on?
Em               Bm    C
   We can live forever, and never fade
Em         D       C
   Drop the needle, take me away
 
 
[Verse 2]
D   Em
         And I still love you,
D   Em
         But I’m feeling nervous
D   Em
         Starting to bleed through
D   C
         A scratch in the surface
D   Em
         Now all of my friends,
D   Em
         Are getting sober
D   Em
         I guess I’ll just see them
D   C
         When this is all over
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C   D
         We never finish,
G   D
         Anything in life
C   D                D
         We just run out of time
 
 
[Chorus]
Em         Bm      C
   Drop the needle, turn me on
Em         Bm      C              D
   Can you feel it, go on and on?
Em               Bm    C
   We can live forever, and never fade
Em         D       C
   Drop the needle,  watch it, fade away
 
 
[Solo]
C   D   x2
D   Em   x3
 
 
[Bridge]
Em        Bm      C
Drop the needle, turn me on
Em        Bm     C
  Do you remember we used to run?
Em       Bm              C
   And it could have been a perfect day
Em         D       C
   Drop the needle, take me away
 
 
[Chorus]
Em         Bm      C
   Drop the needle, turn me on
Em         Bm      C              D
   Can you feel it, go on and on?
Em               Bm    C
   We can live forever, and never fade
Em         D       C              D  Em
   Drop the needle, take me away
