Bouncing Souls rule. Simple power chords, wicked song.

standard tuning

Intro "We can't agree on a single thing..."
You'd think it sounds easy, but I had to listen a few times. here's what I could come up with

e--------------------|
b--------------------|
g-9999-9999----------|
d-9999-9999-77777777-| x4
a-7777-6666-77777777-|
e-----------55555555-|

Chorus "Forget about the things I said..."
When bass and drums come in (listen to the song to get the rythym right)

e---------------|
b---------------|
g-9999-14141414-|
d-9999-14141414-| x4
a-7777-12121212-|
e---------------|

Other part of chorus "I want to start again..."
same as intro I think

e--------------------|
b--------------------|
g-9999-9999----------|
d-9999-9999-77777777-|
a-7777-6666-77777777-| x2
e-----------55555555-|

Bridges chorus to verse (no lyrics)

e--------------------|
b--------------------|
g-9999---------------|
d-9999-9999-77777777-| x2
a-7777-9999-77777777-|
e------7777-55555555-|

verse "I think about the two of us..."

e-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
b---------------------------------| and on and on until the chorus part starts again
g---------------------------------|
d---------------------------------|
a---------------------------------|
e---------------------------------|

play both chorus parts (first part x4, second x2), then back for second verse

then play chorus parts again, both x4

then back to verse part again for the fade out, and this tune is done.

Simple. very simple. Bouncing Souls rule.

Any corrections, maybe on the 996 power in the chorus and intro (not too sure about that) mail me at krooked_kamps@hotmail.com   feedback appreciated
