a little murder (savage, thompson, alba), from _the buck pets_

transcribed by marcel roy <MarcelRoy@yahoo.com>

Notes:
* the intro and the verses are based on these two chords:

	e-|---------
	B-|---------
	G-|-4-----5-
	D-|-4-----4-
	A-|-2-----3-
	E-|---------
 	   B5  C(b5)

you can play them with just two fingers if you want (leave out the
notes on the G-string).
  
* the chorus goes G F E F.  this way of phrasing the chords sounds the best
to my ears:

	e-|-3---1-------1--
	B-|-3---1-------1--
	G-|-0---2-------2--
	D-|-0---3---2---3--
	A-|-X---3---2---3--
	E-|-3---1---0---1--
	    G5  F   E5  F

* after they sing the last chorus, Andy goes up an octave while
Chris plays a mini-solo.  Andy's part uses these chords:

	e-|--------------------
	B-|--------------------
	G-|-12---10----9---10--
	D-|-12---10----9---10--
	A-|-10----8----7----8--
	E-|-10----8----7----8--
 	  G5/D  F5/C E5/B F5/C


* finally, listen to the CD to get the rhythm right.

----

[intro: one guitar, low distortion 'til the last C(b5)]
B5  C(b5)   (x4)

[other guit, bass, drums in:
first guitar as before; second guitar sounds like it's arpeggiating the 
chords]

[1st verse; different rhythm]
  B5             C(b5)
a thousand black bats are
B5              C(b5)                B5     C(b5)   B5     C(b5)  
screaming in my ears for blue eyes
     B5        C(b5)
this hatred of mine is
    B5        C(b5)                B5     C(b5)   B5     C(b5) 
a new kind of motivation
A                  C
you want me in the dark forever

[interlude:  play second half of intro]

[2nd verse, as before]
circumstances, and your intentions
  make me choke on my own suspicions
circumstances, and your intentions
  make me choke on my own suspicions
now it's gonna stay dark forever


[chorus]
G          F               E
too little passion in your style,
         F              B [go right back into 2nd half of intro riff]
a little murder in your smile

[3rd verse]
there's a difference in being alone 
  and being lonely
right now, i don't wanna be 
  by myself
i want to have you over and over

[4th verse]
as the radio winds its stare
  into a different direction
i'm sorry things and yours
  couldn't be a way
i want to have you over and over

[second chorus]
too little passion in your style,
a little murder in your smile . . .

[interlude: repeat intro riff]

[outro: repeat chorus 5 times]
too little passion in your style,
a little murder in your smile

[outro riff -- see Notes above]
G5/D  F5/C  E5/B  F5/C

G5...  F... E5...  F...

End on G.
