Resigned , by Blur - From the album "Modern Life is Rubbish"

========

- This song is relatively simple to play along to since it just repeats itself

over and over again. Its also great to play while smoking:) To properly

simulate the guitar, I use a phaser with the rate and width knobs turned to

the maximum settings. You could also use a flanger with the rate and depth

cranked up but with the res knob fully anticlockwise. Anyway, here it goes..

Here are the words:

I think too much

on things I want too much

and I'm resigned to that,

Only you can fill my blank heart

and I'm resigned to that.

I wish the sun

could just keep me warm

and I'm resigned to that

I'll forget to breathe someday

I never stop to think why.

- I did this from memory, so if you think there's a mistake and something

doesn't sound right, you're probably correct. The song is just chord

arpeggiating (sp.?) and its easy to play around with the pattern...
