Subject: CRD: "Blue" by Elastica
"Blue" by Elastica
>From the album Elastica
transcribed by Patrick Glass (pglass@comp.uark.edu)
I learned this song from the acoustic demo on some B-sides (if you want
to know, it's on the "Connection" single in the UK, and the "Stutter"
single in Europe and Austrailia)
On the album version there's some really strange intro thing, and I don't
know how it goes. Basically, the whole song is 4 chords...
A,
F,
E, and
wow, isn't that hard!
here's how it goes with the lyrics
John's gone his sense is loaded
over by your house it's so basic
I think you're faking have a good time but don't get into my head
Do you recommend I wait a while
direct and live or keep it constant and selective
Chorus:
Blue
I can read your mind, if you want to I will let you
Blue
I can read your mind, if you want to I will let you
(after the chorus bit, on the album version, acoustic just repeats the
first verse)
John's gone, he needs attention do you understand his inclination?
I've seen you shaking, comedown here and I'll show you the wrong way
try to rearrange this tired old line connect this smile and
keep it standard and reflective
Repeat chorus
End with the bridge
E(slow down here)
