Verse:
|B5 |E5 | |F | |B5 |E5 |
|/ / / /|/ / / /| play 8 times… then |/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /|

At the end, in comes that A chord:
|A |F |
|/ / ///|/ / / /|

the ‘s are a chromatic descent on the low e string: A,G#,G

The solo’s the melody again, maybe I’ll post it…
Or, if you wanna wing it, I suggest B major (or G# minor.)

Okay… lesson time. Any Hendrix fans out there?
If you know anything about the rhythym playing style
of Hendrix, you know that he rarely (especially in
ballads) just strums a chord. he adds little embellishments
to keep things moving… such as suspending and releasing the
fourth, sixth, or ninth. this is very similar to the guitars
in ambulance driver. this may mean nothing to you, but
look at this:

notation:
h – hammeron
p – pulloff
/ – shift slide
( – ghost note

Standard:

——–0———————–5————————————————
——–2———————–7————————————————
——–1———————–6————————————————
——–2———————–7————————————————
——–2———————–7————————————————
——–0———————–5————————————————

With embellishment (ambulance driver intro)

——————————–5–5————–5——————————
——–5—5-5–5-5–5-5-4-4—5–5—-5h7p5–5–5—5h7p5-5——————–
——–4—4-4–4-4–4-4-4-4—5h6———-6-5h6———-6——————–
——–4h6-6-6–6-6–6-6-4-4—7—–77—–7-7—–7——7——————–
——–7———————0—————-0————0——————–
——–0————————————————————————

it’s a bit more complicated, but sounds much cooler.
that said, try applying that to these chords for a
closer translation of the song.

Intro:
|E6 | |A6 | |
|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /| play 2x

Verse:
|E6 | |A6 | ()|
|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /| play 2x

Chorus:
|F#m |B |E6 |A6 |
|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /|/ / / /| play 2x

That’s about all you need… the () is a lead fill:

D|——2-(4)/6-4—–|
A|–2h4—————|

arr. by Superdrag

notes:
i think all this song’s chords are straight
major… no minor at all….

verse: same riff all thru…

keeping quiet and meaningless
in the caves that you gave me
i am euphamizing the gloom
in whose image you made me
in this valley of dying stars
you can make it feel crazy
you can block out most of the view
til you make it amazing

can you hear the sound

of hours blowing away

if you care about it anyway

how can i take you out of the way

bullets break you a lobotomy

Ab (verse riff)
bullets break you a lobotomy
