Random Firl Chords & Tabs
this is a fantastic, really upbeat song from Late Of The Pier with a nice melody to play along
the whole album is in my opinion flawless, and this is one of the best songs
beginning riff after drums comes in at 00:05
there are variations on this, but its the main idea
e|------12---------12-12------------12---14---12-12-----|
b|---15---15----15------15-------15---15---15------15---|
g|12---------12----------------11-----------------------| x4
d|------------------------------------------------------|
a|------------------------------------------------------|
e|------------------------------------------------------|
then at a 00:27 this bit that is played under the first riff comes in played on synth
e|-------------------------------------------------------|
b|-------------------------------------------------------|
g|-------------------------------------------------------|
d|-------------------------------------------------------|
a|--------------------------2h3--3--3--3--5--5--5-7--5---|
e|3--3--3--3--3--3-2-3-2-3-----------------------------7-|
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/late_of_the_pier/random_firl_tab.html ]
e|--------------------------------------------------|
b|--------------------------------------------------|
g|--------------------------------------------------| and then it goes
d|-----------------------------------------7--7-7---| back to the first bit
a|-------------------------3h2--2--2--2--5---5-5----|
e|3--3--3--3-2-3--3-2-3-2-3-----------------------5-| it should fit together
the bit on the xylophone sounds like single note picking of a G chord but i'm not sure
this is whats played when the vocals kick in but you'll have to listen to it for the timing.
oh and the S in the next bit stands for slide
e|------------------------------------------------7----7-|
b|8------7-----------------------------8------10---------|
g|-----------7----4------4s7---4-------------------------|
d|-------------------------------------------------------|
a|-------------------------------------------------------|
e|-------------------------------------------------------|
lately...
these riffs are repaeted a few times with some variations, but thats it
LYRICS
Lately, I've been thinking this whole world seems to harm
Now we're better off to underhand things
But maybe, it was only the sun behind the clouds
Making things seem nasty
