Hard to Explain The Strokes
Tabbed by ; James Frampton
Intro: The intro is tabbed very well by someone else on this page.
Verse:
W[G]as an [Em]honest [Am]man
[D]Asked me for the phone[D]
T[D]ried to take contr[D]ol
Oh I d[C]on't see it that way
I d[Am]on't see it that way
We shared some ideas
All obsessed with fame
Says we're all the same
I don't see it that way
I don't see it that way
Pre-CHORUS:
R[G]aised in C[Em]arolina
I[Bm]'m not like [D]that
[G]Tryin' to re[Em]mind her
[Bm]When we go b[D]ack
CHORUS:
I [G]missed the last bus
I'l[G]l take the next train
I [Bm]try, but you see
It[Am]'s hard to explain
I [G]said the right things
Bu[G]t act the wrong way
I [Bm]like it right here
But[Am] I cannot stay
I w[G]atched the TV
For[G]get what I'm told
Wel[Bm]l I am too young
And[Am] they are too old
The[G] joke is on you
Thi[G]s place is a zoo
You[Bm]'re right, it's true
Break. (like the intro kinda)
Verse:
He said he can't decide
I shake my head to say
Everythings just great
Oh I just can't remember
I just can't remember
Pre-CHORUS:
Raised in Carolina (she says)
I'm not like that
Trying to remind her
When we go back
CHORUS:
I say the right things
But act the wrong way
I like it right here
But I cannot stay
I watched the TV
Forget what I'm told
I am too young
And they are too old
I'll make it you see
I'm ever so pleased
Pretend to be nice
So I can be mean
I missed the last bus
I'll take the next train
I try, but you see
It's hard to explain
I'm pretty sure about these chords, these guys are sometimes hard to figure out because
of all the layering they do.
Good Song though and good luck
