Chords

Essex Dogs by Blur from their self-titled album. Written by Alex James, Damon Albarn, Dave Rowantree, and Graham Coxon. This song is played using a lot of guitar fx and a driving bass line. I attempted to write out chords relative to the bass line. The chords may not be in the right positions but they are all the correct chords. Please rate and leave a comment. Enjoy! Tab by Ricky Mahig [Intro] (Guitar barking) A F#m x12 [Verse 1]
A
Na na na na na

F#m                                  A
I remember thinking murder in the car

                                 F#m
Watching dogs somersault through sprinklers on tiny lawns

G#m
I remember the graffiti

B
We are your children coming at you with spray cans of paint

A                                       C
I remember the sunsets on the plains of cement

                D                                       E
And the way the night just seemed to turn the colour of orangeade
[Verse 2]
A                    F#m
In this town, cellular phones are hot with thieves

A                                    F#m
In this town, we all go to terminal pubs

                                          A
It helps us sweat out those angry bits of life

G#m                      B
In this town, the English Army grind their teeth into glass

A                             C
You know you'll get a kicking tonight

D
The smell of puke and piss

E
The smell of puke and piss on your stilettos
[Instrumental] A F#m x4 [Verse 3]
A
Here comes that panic attack
N.C. My heart stops N.C. And then it starts
F#m
Give me a drink

F#m
I'll drink your round

 G#m                     B
I'll take you 'round the pole

 B
It's cold up here (I see the universe)

 A                                       C
You'll catch the flu or you'll catch the city (Wave goodbye, you're in a hearse)

E
Either way, you'll catch the flu or you'll catch the city
[Outro] (Guitar barking and other random noises) A F#m x24
