  • Chords: It sounds like there are two guitars and they
    mix up the fingering from lower to higher. Here are
    the two positions where they alternate.
  •  
    E C#m A F#m B
    -4-0-----4----5-0----5-2---2-------------------------|
  • -5-0-----5----5-2----7-2---4-------------------------|
    -4-1-----6----6-2----6-2---4-------------------------|
    -6-2-----6----7-2------4---4-------------------------|
  • ---2-----4----7-0------4---2-------------------------|
    ---0----------5--------2-----------------------------|
     
  •  
    Intro: The song starts with a muffled barred E keeping beat
    with the snare. Then, the other guitar comes in with:
  •  
    repeat
    --7---5---4-----------5--4-----7--5--4------|
  • --5-----------5-------5-----5-----------5---|
    --4-------------------4---------------------|
    --------------------------------------------|
  • --------------------------------------------|
    --------------------------------------------|
    Then they get into heavy chords as follows:
  • (played in the higher position sounds best)
     
     
  • E C#m A
     
    E F#m A
  •  
     
    Verses:
  •  
    E A E
    Someone lights a cigarette
  • A E F#m
    While riding in a car
    E A E
  • Some ol' guy takes a swig
    A E F#m
    And passes back the jar
  • B A E
    But where they were last night
    A E F#m
  • No-one can remember
    C#m A
    Somebody got murdered
  • B E
    Goodbye, for keeps, forever
     
  • E C#m A
    Somebody got murdered
    E F#m A
  • Somebody's dead forever
     
    And you're minding your own business
  • Carrying spare change
    You wouldn't cosh a barber
    You're hungry all the same
  • I been very tempted
    To grab it from the till
    I been very hungry
  • But not enough to kill
     
    Somebody got murdered
  • His name cannot be found
    A small stain on the pavement
    They'll scrub it off the ground
  • As the daily crown disperse
    No-one says that much
    Somebody got murdered
  • And it' left me with a touch
     
    Somebody got murdered
  • Somebody's dead forever
     
    /*
  • Now play the intro riff above these words:
    */
     
  • Sounds like murder!
    Those shouts!
    Are they drunk down below?
  •  
    It's late, and my watch stopped
    Some time ago
  • Sounds like murder!
    Those screams!
    Are they drunk down below?
