Hello Time Bomb by Matthew Good
Hello Time Bomb
this is the main riff here, doesnt change very much through out the verses
e|------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------|
G|--4-4/-6-6-6------------------------|
D|--4-4/-6-6-6---------6-6\\-2-2-2-----|
A|--2-2/-4-4-4---------6-6\\-2-2-2-----|
E|---------------------4-4\\-0-0-0-----|
^---------|
for this slide here|, I like to keep
my 3rd and 4th fingers on the D and A
strings to get that full fluent slide
effect that you hear in the song instead
of changing to 1st annd 2nd fingers
during the slide.
e|-------------------------------| when he''s got the whole techno/distorted
B|-------------------------------| effect going, i think this is better to
G|-------------------------------| play versus the power chords, since they
D|-------------------------------| arent as strong. since the more powerful
A|--2-2/-4-4-4-------------------| chords come out at random times, you can
E|-------------------4-4\\-0-0-0--| judge for yourself what to play/when.
at 0:25 the pre-chorus hits with this (not exact # of notes here)
e|------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|-------------------------------2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2----|
E|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------------------------------------|
Chorus:
e|------------------------------|
B|------------------------------|
G|--6------2-------------4------| (x2)
D|--6(x8)--2(x8)--2------4(x8)--|
A|--4------0------2(x8)--2------|after 2nd time through, with the last chord,
E|----------------0-------------|transition into the main verse riff again
the 2nd verse continues on that main riff with a mix between the chords and
the single notes. same pre-chorus as well
Chorus:
e|------------------------------|
B|------------------------------|
G|--6------2-------------4------| (x4)
D|--6(x8)--2(x8)--2------4(x8)--|
A|--4------0------2(x8)--2------|
E|----------------0-------------|
at the end of the 4th time through the chorus we get to the bridge:
e|----------|------------------------|
B|----------|------------------------|
G|--4-4/-6--|--6-6-------------------| (x5)
D|--4-4/-6--|--6-6--7-6-2-4-4--4-44--|only repeat whats in between the
A|--2-2/-4--|--4-4--7-6-2-4-4--4-44--|lines, the first bit is the transition
E|----------|-------5-4-0-2-2--2-22--|from the chorus to the bridge
^---------------|
*note*: this is just the backround to the whole solo, but i couldnt figure
it out with all of the effects and distortion
when you are at the 5th reptition, play this:
e|-------------------|
B|-------------------|
G|--6-6----------4---|
D|--6-6--7-6-2---4---|
A|--4-4--7-6-2---2---|
E|-------5-4-0-------|
then that transitions back into the main verse riff, but at around 2:39,
this happens:
e|----------------------|
B|----------------------|
G|-------------------4--|
D|--6-6\\-2-2-2-----2-4--|
A|--6-6\\-2-2-2-----2-2--|
E|--4-4\\-0-0-0-----0----|
after that little variation, backround guitar comes in with this and
continues until the final chorus (not exact number of notes):
e|---0--0--0--0--0---|
B|----4--4--4--4--4--|
G|-------------------|
D|-------------------|
A|-------------------|
E|-------------------|
then about half-way through the pre-chorus it switches to this (not exact
number of notes):
e|------------------|
B|---7-7-7-7-7-7-7--|
G|------------------|
D|------------------|
A|------------------|
E|------------------|
continue the verse riff while the backrounds are going, but at the second
slide (where matt sings "devil''s on sugar smacks"), play this:
e|---------------------|
B|---------------------|
G|---------------------|
D|--6-6/-7-7-7----6-4--|
A|--6-6/-7-7-7----6-4--|
E|--4-4/-5-5-5----4-2--|
after that its:
main riff
pre-chorus
chorus (x4)
the chorus chords are backround to the outro that starts at around 3:33 and
goes like this:
e|-----------|---------------------|
B|--5-4-5-0--|--7-6-7-0---7-6-7-0--|
G|-----------|---------------------| (x2)
D|----(x6)---|---------------------|
A|-----------|---------------------|
E|-----------|---------------------|
and the song ends on playing the main riff one last time going out really
strong.
I found me a reason
So check me tomorrow
We''ll see if I''m leaking
Push and push and push till it hurts
My devil''s on rollerskates
Down at the roller rink
Picking up chicks for me
Ones that push and push and push till it hurts
Push and push till it hurts
Dirty enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Dirty enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Life''s for the living
So check me tomorrow
We''ll see if I''m kidding
Push and push and push till it hurts
Did it on Ritalin
I got me some good grades
Now I work me the night shift
Where I pull and pull and pull till it hurts
Pull and pull till it hurts
Dirty enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Dirty enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Hello time bomb, I''m ready to go off
If life''s for the livid
Check me tomorrow
We''ll see if I''m emperor
My devil''s on sugared smacks
Down at the radio shack
We''re turning shit into solid gold, solid gold
Dirty enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Dirty it enough I got me a love
And it''s so bad, it''s so bad
Hello time bomb, I''m ready to go off
Hello time bomb, I''m ready to go off.
