This my 5th song that i transribed (or attempted to transcribe) off the Sixteen Stone album. This song is yet another great song written by Gavin Rossdale, this song really isn't that hard. If you have any information about Bush touring the New York City area, please please e-mail me. -=-=-=-=-=-here is the song=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Guitar parts: ------------- these are all the chords used in this song (i think) |-----| |-----| |------| |-----| |-----| |-----| |-----| |-----| |------| |-----| |-----| |-----| |--5--| |--7--| |--10--| |-----| |-----| |-----| |--5--| |--7--| |--10--| |--4--| |--5--| |--7--| |--3--| |--5--| |--8---| |--4--| |--5--| |--7--| |-----| |-----| |------| |--2--| |--3--| |--5--|
part A (verse): --------------- |-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------| |--5---7---10--7---5--5--7----------------| |--5---7---10--7---5--5--7--4---4-4-4--5--| |--3---5---8---5---3--3--5--4---4-4-4--5--| |---------------------------2---2-2-2--3--| the verse progression goes C-D-F-D-C-D-F#-G
sometimes, the guitar stops playing and the bass plays the verse like this: |-----------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------------| |--3---5---8---5---3--3--5----------------| |---------------------------2---2-2-2--3--| and the guitar comes in and plays chords every once in a while -=-=-i'm sure you are all smart people, you'll figure it our-=-=-=-
part B: ------- this part comes in around the lines "never been wrong....." |------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------| |--5---7-7-7---5---7-7-7---5---7-7---------------| |--5---7-7-7---5---7-7-7---5---7-7--4--4-4-4--5--| |--3---5-5-5---3---5-5-5---3---5-5--4--4-4-4--5--| |-----------------------------------2--2-2-2--3--| so the chord progression is C-D-C-D-C-D-F#-G
part C: ------- this part comes in around the lines "got a big gold gun....." |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----5------5---7---7-7---------2---7-7---------2---7-7---------2--| D |--7--5---7--5---7---7-7--6-5-x--3---7-7--6-5-x--3---7-7--6-5-x--3--| A |--7--3---7--3---5---5-5--6-5-x--3---5-5--6-5-x--3---5-5--6-5-x--3--| E |--5------5---------------4-3-x--1--------4-3-x--1--------4-3-x--1--| so the chord progression is A-C-A-C-D-G#-G-F.....and so on......
part D: ------- this is my pitiful attempt at the little semi-solo E |--3h5-5-5-5--3-5-----------3--3h5-5-5-5-3-5s7-7-5-5s3---------------| B |-----------------5--3--3h5------------------------------5-5-3h5-5-5-| |--------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|-------------| B |-3-5-5-5-3-5-| (this is the end give or take some 5's and 3's and G |-------------| bends and stuff, there is also two pick harmonics D |-------------| in there when he is playing at the end) |-------------| |-------------| this came out pretty fucked up. I couldn't hear the first couple of seconds of it and the end part is all messed up, but you can work with it, i'm sorry, i just don't have the time to work with it, if i decide to redo it, i will post it. Oh behind the little "solo" the guitar strums what i believe is an F-Chord in the background. Sorry, that really sucked dick big time (my attempt at the solo of course)
lyrics: ------- i'm a man i'm real proud of my manhood i like to smoke ten thousand cigarillos eight ball i could climb any fountain i never cry i only bawl when i'm losing and i've never been wrong never been wrong i'm looking so good looking so good
got a big gold gun got a big gold bullet and i guess you could say i'm real full of it i'm real full of it i'm real full of it you wanna see my peccadillos hot dog 7:30 every morning and i'm big into war big into war big into war
i am a whore i am a whore
got a big gold gun
is shave with gilette shave with gilette and i'm patting my back patting my back got a big gold bullet
any suggestions, corrections, requests, comments, additions, subtractions, personal letters, problems you want to talk out, help on your homework, feeling lonely and need a friend, questions in general on anything in the world, or maybe, THANK-YOU notes just e-mail me. have fun with the song
p.s. does anybody know of any Bush bootlegs? if so please, please, you want to refer to your "balls", "nuts", "nuggets", etc. try using the word "swingers" for them, it sounds more sofisticated (hope i spelled that word right) and is frankly better.
