METRIC - IOU Ok, here are two versions of IOU, they're basically the same, but pick which one sounds to you - pick up the rythm by listening to the song. -Uqbar Verison 1 BGGDFGBF#maj e|-----------------------------3--3----2--7----2----| B|-----------------------------3--3----3--7----2----| G|--4----------------7---------0--4----4--7----3----| D|--4--6---5---12-or-7----4----0--5----4--9----4----| A|--2--6---5---12----5----4----2--5----2--9----4----| E|-----4---3---10---------2----3--3----x--7----2----| Sample strumming pattern: (on G#5 for instance...) e---------------------| B---------------------| G---------------------| D--x-x--x--x-x-x-x----| A--x-x--x--x-x-x-x----| E--x-x-----x-x-x------| Okay, that sucks... well i am just trying to reiterate the use of the higher notes... Anyways, the actual song... (guitar and vocals start) B5 G#5 old world underground, where are you now?

Bmin Gmaj F#maj hesitation's always mine (Bass line comes in) hesitate outside the times oh, call me or drop me a line, (First two stanza's from bassline) bmin G say you've been with me Bmin G say you've been with me (Back to full Bassline) Bmin G F#maj say you've been with me this whole time B5 G#5 old world underground, i never knew you G5 D5 F#5 D5 but i've seen your face everywhere there was a farm, before we tore the small town down (To Outro:) F#5 B5 multiply, divide... (solo is here over the outro) B5 - G#5 - G5 - D5 F#5-| B5 - G#5 - G5 - D5 F#5-| D5 - F#5 (till the end) Veriosn 2 Here are the chords used: *** I added stuff in brackets and moved it 'round a bit B G# D D F# G G Bmin Bmin F#maj *** Emaj Emin e|-(0)(4)-----0-(0)--3--3---2----7------2----| ---0----0---| B|-(0)(4)-----3-(0)--3--3---3----7------2----| ---0----0---| G|--4-(4)--7--2-(3)--0--4---4----7------3----| ---1----0---| D|--4--6---7--0--4---0--5---4----9------4----| ---2----2---| A|--2--6---5--0--4---2--5---2----9------4----| ---2----2---| E|-----4--(5)----2---3--3---x----7------2----| ---0----0---| *** Stuff in brackets is optional I guess. During the intro I strum the lower (deeper) notes 3 times, then strum all of them on the 4th strum. I love the sound of the F# with the high open notes. heh! I don't think this is totally accurate, (I think he players the chords higher up on the neck) but it's good enough for me :) INTRO (guitar and vocals start) B Emaj old world underground, where are you now? Emin D F#maj subtract my age from the mileage on my speeding heart, credit cards, B G# accelerate, accumulate, looked for you downtown Emin G wound up in a movie with no story D F#maj now it's late, and you are nowhere to be found VERSE Bass line: G------------------------------|----------------------------------| D------------------------------|----------------------------------| A--2-2-5-2-2-5----2-2-5-2-0-5--|----------------------------------| E------------------------------|--3-3-7-3-3-7----3-3-7-3-3-7------| G------------------------------|----------------------------------| D------------------------------|----------------------------------| A------------------------------|----------------------------------| E--2-2-6-2-2-6----2-2-6-2-2-6--|--2-2-6-2-2-6----2-2-6-2-2-6------| *** He's got this part right for the most part I think. Might be a note different or something, but I usually just strum full chords here anyways. It's much easier to sing along with for me. But that's me. I'm going to split them up into sections (parts), add a section he missed, and input easier notes to hit if you don't like stretching your fingers (like me). You can hit these notes instead of the ones below them. These notes will be in brackets of course.
