The Notwist – Chemicals

Hey guys, couldn’t find this song in the net, so watched a great cover on youtube and
it down, think it is about 90% accurate.

Chemicals will hit you
Chemicals will knock you down
Is it over cause you
You feel no pain
Throwning me around
You attack my head
With numbers
You attack my room
With things of glass
You attack my neighbors
‘Till you find someone
Who’s cleaning up the mess
You are no good
You are no good
‘Cause I know you can’t sleep
‘Till you know your overbearance
Muted strumming
Makes me creep
You are no good
You are no good
‘Cause I know you can’t sleep
‘Till you know your overbearance
Makes me creep

[A/F#]Have you [A/G#]ever, have you ever been all messed [A/F#]up,
Have you [A/G#]ever?

[E/G#] [-]

You’re the pincard, you’re the lifeguard,
you’re the information guy,
but things look much bigger on your knees, on your knees.

Miss the signal, miss the signpost,
lose the access to it all.
B A F#m B(low)
and all of a sudden you are one with the freaks.

Have you ever, have you ever been all messed up?
Have you ever?

Chorus

Intro: x554xx | x454xx

Idiot job 203
Newspapers shoot their letters at me
I’m alone at last with every other me
Guardian help me, angel shoot
All you ghosts stand by and salute
And explain:
Why is everything so locked up? Why is everything so locked up?

Lake is empty, lake is full
People say it’s a push and pull
I know I did the wrong mistake again.
Guardian help me, angel shoot
All you ghosts stand by and salute
And explain:
Why is everything so locked up? Why is everything so locked up?

I don’t blame it on the front row
don’t blame it on the ruling class (or ruined glass)
‘Cause I know they stay
G (x55430)
Like all the cars in NY
Like all the lights on New Year
Like all these gloomy planets
You know they stay
don’t blame it on the signals
don’t blame it on the steering wheel
don’t blame it on the logbooks
‘Cause I know they stay
Like all the cars in NY
Like all the lights on New Year
Like all these gloomy planets
You know they stay
Anyway.

Enjoy playing this beautiful song. Never thought I’d be tabing a song someday, but I
this is my contribution 😉

Just a few things I would like to explain…

Here are a few clarifications for some chords I may possibly have invented names for:

[Dadd12b] [A/F#]

e–4——5———0——-0——0——-0—-0–0—2—2——|
B–3——3———2——-2——0——-3—-2–0—3—3——|
G–2——2———2——-1——2——-2—-2–1—2—4——|
D–0——0———2——-2——2——-2—-2–2—0—4——|
A–x——x———0——-0——2——-0—-0–2—x—2——|
E–x——x———2——-x——0——-x—-x–0—x–(2)—–|

Also, before they resolve the Asus4->A, the actual song might stay on Bm and then just
the E string resonate…if you can change smoothly to the E, it should sound good too.

Email me with any questions/comments/suggestions at rudyrocks41@yahoo.com, I’d be
to hear from you!

That’s all, enjoy this great song by a band I just discovered!

Intro: A Amaj7

Verse 1

-------

You’re the colour,

you’re the movement and the spin. (Never)

Could it stay with me the whole day long?

Fail with consequence, lose with eloquence and a smile.

I’m not in this movie

I’m not in this song (Never)

Chorus (without guitar)

----------------------- 

Leave me paralyzed, love.
Leave me hypnotized, love.

Verse 2

-------

You’re the colour,

you’re the movement and the spin. (Never)

Could it stay with me the whole day long?

Fail with consequence, lose with eloquence and a smile
You’re not in this movie
You’re not in this song (never)

Chorus

------

Leave me paralyzed, love.

Leave me hypnotized, love.

Leave me paralyzed, love.

Leave me hypnotized, love.
