So Long Everlast
A:-------0*-----------------------------------------
E:0*------------3*----------------------------------
I knew a [Em]man with a son
bought him a gun
he [Am]learned shorty just how to u[G]se it
taught him [Em]huntin' and skinin'
right from the beginin'
buil[Am]t himself a mighty fine [G]killer (killer)
but s[Em]horty got picked on
beat on and kicked on
and [Am]all his classmates wanted to p[G]unk him
so with [Em]tears in his eye
and the catcher in the rye
an[Am]d he told his old man he went [G]huntin' (huntin')
he never f[Em]elt so free
like his destiny
lay s[Am]omewhere out on the [G]horizon
[Em]
it's hard when you're cold
he felt a hundred years old
Am& G&
and started pulling back on the trigger
Chorus:
Gtr. 1 & Gtr. 2
[Am]Think I'm gonna die toda[C]y
[G]Everyone that hurt me's gonna [F]pay
[Am]How could such a short time feel so l[C]ong?
[G]How could such a young life go so wro[F]ng?
Bridge:
Gtr. 1: strum Em 4 times.
After that, Gtr. 2 hit (hard) the low D string 3 times. Then to verse 2
verse 2:
Gtr. 1
[Em]See me hear me
but don't t[Am]ouch me, you should [G]fear me
cuz I'm c[Em]learly... cuz I'm seriously distru[Am]bed
that's my w[G]ord
Em*
don't wake my mother
just wake my brother
cuz i found anot[Am]her who want to play sucke[G]r
and I ain't the [Em]one
who put shade in your sun
and took all your sh[Am]ine... watch me get mi[G]ne
Em*
feel how it burns
to pay for my sins
watch the world tu[Am]rn
inside the begi[G]nin'
losses and win[Em]s
angels and demons
dancin' on t[Am]op of the head of a p[G]in
don't know where I'm g[Em]oin'
but I know where I been
Can't hear a soun[Am]d, clap me for pou[G]nd
I came to get do[Em]wn
I came to get dirty
Am& G&
I came to get even (even, even even)
Chorus
Outro:
Gtr. 1
Gtr. 2 (clean)
[Am]Please mama don't cry
[C]Please mama don't cry
[G]Please mama don't cry you did nothing w[F]rong
repeat w/o lyrics 1 time. End on F.
Notes:
I couldn't find the exact lyrics, so I did the best by ear. If anyone knows the real lyrics, drop me a line.
If you don't want to do drop D tuning, it sounds alright with just an E during the bridge.
During the chorus, on Gtr. 1, instead of just going from Am to C, it sounds better if you go Am, C/B, C, hitting C/B for one beat. Listen to the song to get the timing on that right.
For Gtr. 2, I know you can play an A chord with the base note on the A string, but you need to get the slide up to the C, then back down to the G and F. So start at the 7th fret, slide to the 10th, then slide down to the 5th, then the 3rd. It sounds weird at first, but that's the way it is on the CD.
Gtr. 2: distortion. Everlast uses what I like to call the "NIN Fuzz" on this song. What I mean by "NIN Fuzz" is a heavy distortion, but with low tone quality. If you have amp distortion, I recomend using that with either your neck pickup or using both neck and bridge pickups, and your tone knob either all the way, or halfway down. If you're using a pedal, just put the distortion down to about half, turn the tone down about 2/3rds of the way, and turn up the volume, since doing this takes you down a lot. Or you can use mild distortion with a fuzz pedal, or distortion with a phaser pedal, with the phase about halfway. I just use the amp distortion method.
For the outro, there's still distortion, but not enough for it to be palm muted. So I recomend either just palm muting Gtr. 2, or just playing Gtr. 2 clean.
