Loving the Alien Velvet Revolver
Loving the alien-Contraband
Tabbed by scott bennett
I decided to tab this song as ITS A GREAT SONG and
no1 seems to hav done it properly yet especialy the chorus riff
so here u go
Youve got the chords in the verse fairly straight forward
[C]Sometimes I think I'm scared, [Am]sometimes I know.
[Em]I feel like making love, [G]sometimes I don't.
[C]I feel like letting go, [Am]maybe not.
[Em]I feel like giving up, [G]is all we got.
Chorus:
[F]Sometimes is [G]all the time, and [F]never means [G]maybe.
[F]Sometimes is [G]all the time,
[C]maybe, and I'm moving [G]on,
[C] and I'm moving [G]on, (sometimes I feel alone),
[C] and I'm moving [G]on, [C] and I'm moving [G]on.
The next bit sounds like and F then a fill then a G
so its like
E--1--1-----------------------3--3-------------| B--1--1-----------------------3--3-------------| G--2--2-----------------------0--0-------------| x3 D--3--3-----------------------0--0-------------| A--4--4---------8-7-5---------2--2-------------| E--1--1----------------8-7-5--3--3-------------|
And the second guitar just plays the same sort of riff on the low strings
E------8--------8-7-5---------5--/--7----------| B----6-----------------8-7-5-------------------| G----------------------------------------------| x3 D----------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------|
now the chorus now all the tabs ive seen for this riff have been horribly
wrong so heres a decent version of the riff that actually sounds like it.
E------15----13----15----12----15----13----12-13-15------15----13----15----12----15----13----12-13-15---| B---13----13----13----13----13----13----13------------12----12----12----12----12----12----12------------| G-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| D-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E------15----13----15----12----15----13----12-13-15------15----13----15---------------------------------| B-----------------------------------------------------12----12----12----12----15b(17)r------------------| G---14----14----14----14----14----14----14--------------------------------------------------------------| D-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
And kushner plays the chords
[F]Sometimes is [G]all the time, and [F]never means [G]maybe.
[F]Sometimes is [G]all the time,
[C]maybe, and I'm moving [G]on,
[C] and I'm moving [G]on, (sometimes I feel alone),
[C] and I'm moving [G]on, [C] and I'm moving [G]on
Then theres a piece of lead in the verse with a slide
from the bend at the end of the chorus:
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B---15b(17)r-\-13----12\--10---10/--12---13/--15--15\--13--12\--10--10/--12--13/--15~---| G---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
verse bridge & chorus
Then the bridge theres a sort of acoustic solo over the chords
Bridge:
[D]I never [C]noticed. How [G]lovely were the aliens? [G]Lovely were the aliens.
[D]I never [C]noticed. How [G]lovely were the aliens? [G]Lovely were the aliens.
