Intro -x2-: A D A D A Oh well the world never seemed bigger D Than the summer of '98 A Living out in the suburbs D Planning my escape A I grew my hair to my shoulders D Formed a band with a couple of friends A And we called ourselves The Devils Playhouse D Influences like Bruce and the band D A And we'd sing and play Gbm Dbm D Simple three chord rock and roll D A And miles away Gbm Dbm D The other kids would just grow old D A E But we're making our own way out D A E Yeah we're making our own way out Interlude: A D A D A Well we'd practice every week in my bedroom D While my parents were working in town A And one morning in our school assembly D Played a cover of "Don't Let Me Down" A The performance was nervous and awkward D But the passion was real and profound A And the kids in the audience laughing D While the band just looked at the ground D A But the victory Gbm Dbm D For the kids who believe in rock and roll D A I know for me Gbm Dbm D That performance lives, it never grows old D A E But we're making our own way out D A E Yeah we're making our own way out A Well I'd give it all back just to do it again D Yeah I'd turn back time, be with my friends A Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again D Turn back time, be with my friends A Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again D Turn back time and be with my friends A Yeah I'd give it all back just to do it again D E Turn back time, be with my friends A Tonight
-3 Is by far the easiest setting.
+2 is way easier
The second to last bit (starts with “when all…”) needs to be repeated 4 times and the part after that (the outro) needs to be repeated 3 times. Also, before the second to last bit it shows “along” played 4 times when its supposed to be 3 but, i like using the 4th to kinda die down to play the following slower then build back up. 🙂 P.S.: c0o0kie, I totally agree, +2 is definitely easier to play and personally, to sing. Overall, this is a wonderful tab and I love to play it all the time!
