Now We're Getting Somewhere

(N. Finn)

NOTES:

-- Chords in Intro should be damped with heel of hand. when verse starts,

go ahead and let them sustain.

-- The lead-in to the second verse is also used during the rideout section

when Neil's not soloing (starting with "When you took me to your room ...").

-- The Badd4 chord is played like this, and it's important to the play the straight

B chord at the seventh fret:

--0--||
--0--||
--8--||
--9--||
--9--||
--7--||

INTRO: C#m F#m G#7

C#m

It never used to be that bad

F#m G#7

But neither was it great

C#m

Somewhere in the middle than

F#m G#7

Content and much too safe

E

Ooh tell me please

B Badd4

Why it takes so long

C#m F#m B

To realize when there's something wrong

Riff after verse:

CHORUS

E A

Lay me out with your heart

B

Now we're gettin' somewhere

E A

Push me back to the start

B

Now we're gettin' somewhere

E A

Take me out let me breathe

B

Now we're gettin' somewhere

E A

When I'm with you I don't care

B

Where it is I'm falling

Lead-in to second verse:

Ooh tell me please, tell me what went wrong

Cos I believe there is something wrong

E A

When you took me to your room

B

I swear I said surrender

E A

When you opened up your mouth

B

I saw the words fall out

E A

Though nothing much has changed

B

I swear I will surrender

E A B

There is pain in my heart

E A B

We can choose what we choose to believe
