Zombies Ate My Neighbors
D# G# C# F# A# D#
Intro. and Chorus (I feel like there are two guitars playing; one that does the first
line with a little discord and one that does the plain ol' chords in the second one. The
first time is quiet and then it's played at a good, full volume.)
E-------------------------7-7-7-7----7-7-5-5--------------------|
A---5-5-5-5----4-4-4-4------------------------------------------|
D---7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7--------------------| x2 quiet
G---7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7--------------------| x2 loud
B---7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7----7-7-7-7--------------------|
e---------------------------------------------------------------|
E---5---|
A-------|
D---7---|
G---7---| Hold the last chord and then go into the chorus
B---7---|
e-------|
I think every time a verse is played it's the same chords, it's just played differently
as far as rhythm of strumming
and muting some of the chords, so please listen to the song to figure out exactly how
this is played each time
E------------------------------------5-5-5-5----|
A---5-5-5-5----4-4-4-4----2-2-2-2----7-7-7-7----|
D---7-7-7-7----6-6-6-6----4-4-4-4----7-7-7-7----|
G---7-7-7-7----6-6-6-6----4-4-4-4---------------|
B-----------------------------------------------|
e-----------------------------------------------|
(Second part of the verses)
E---7-7-7-7----3-3-3-3----0-0-0-0----5-5-5-5----|
A---9-9-9-9----5-5-5-5----2-2-2-2----7-7-7-7----|
D---9-9-9-9----5-5-5-5----2-2-2-2----7-7-7-7----|
G-----------------------------------------------|
B-----------------------------------------------|
e-----------------------------------------------|
Chorus again... and then another verse
Bridge Chords go something like this... But i think this might be wrong because it
might be in some weird time with some lead guitar over the top.
E-----------------------------------------------------------|
A---12-12-12-12----10-10-10-10----9--9--9--9-----7-7-7-7----|
D---14-14-14-14----12-12-12-12----11-11-11-11----9-9-9-9----|
G---14-14-14-14----12-12-12-12----11-11-11-11----9-9-9-9----|
B-----------------------------------------------------------|
e-----------------------------------------------------------|
Then it goes back to the chorus a few more times and that's the whole song!
