Out of the Blue  Julian Casablancas

(I will be adding the missing layers of the song as I figure them out, so check back frequently)
Db: [E]x [A]4 [D]6 [G]6 [B]6 [E]4
Ab: 4 6 6 5 4 4

Fm: x 8 10 10 9 8
Intro: C#
[C#]Somewhere along the way my hopefulness turned to sadness
[Ab]Somewhere along the way my sadness turned to bitterness
[Eb]Somewhere along the way my bitterness turned to anger
[Ab]Somewhere along the way my anger turned to vengeance
And [C#]the ones that I make pay
Are never the ones who deserve it
and [Ab]the ones who deserve it they'll never understand it
Yes,[Eb] I know I am going to hell in a purple basket
At l[Ab]east I will be in another world, while you're p**sing on my casket
[Ab]How could you be Oh[C#] [Fm] [Eb]
So perfect for [Ab]me? O[C#]h[Fm] [Eb]
Why can't you i[Ab]gnore[C#] Oh[Fm] [Eb]
The things I di[Ab]d bef[C#]ore[Fm]?[Eb]
[C#]Somewhere along the way exacting vengeance gave excitement
[Ab]Somewhere along the way that excitement turned to pleasure
[Eb]Somewhere along the way that pleasure turned to madness
[Ab]Sooner or later that kind of madness turns into pain
[C#]And the ones that I made pay were never ones who deserved it
[Ab]Those who helped me along the way, I smacked them as I thanked them
[Eb]Yes, I know I am going to hell in a leather jacket
[Ab]At least I will be in another world, while you're p**sing on my casket
All that I can do now is sing a song of faded glory
And all you got to do is sit there look great and make them horny
Together we will sing songs and tell exaggerated stories
About the way we feel today, and tonight and in the morning
(There are two separate guitars here, but they play mostly the same notes. And I'm too lazy
to tab them both)

[Ab]How could you be Oh[C#] [Fm] [Eb]
So perfect for [Ab]me? O[C#]h[Fm] [Eb]
Why can't you i[Ab]gnore[C#] Oh[Fm] [Eb]
The things I di[Ab]d bef[C#]ore[Fm]?[Eb]
[Eb]And take all your fears
[Eb]And pretend they're all true
[Eb]And take all your plans
[Eb]And pretend they fell through
[Eb]And that's what it's l[Ab]ike, Oh[C#] [Fm] [Eb]
That's what it's [Ab]like for most p[C#]eople in[Fm] this wo[Eb]rld
The rich or the [Ab]poor O[C#]h[Fm] [Eb]
Muslims or [Ab]Jews O[C#]h[Fm] [C#]
When roles are [Ab]reversed O[C#]h[Fm] [Eb]
Opinions are [Ab]too N[C#]o, oh[Fm] oh[Eb]
(play this next part (part A) six times, with a variation to the last part of the
third and sixth)

tricky, but doable.):

Before they come knockin' on my door [Ab]now[C#] [Fm] [Eb]

again along with this)
