The basic format for any Jebediah song is a recurring riff over some power
chords. So here?s the riff...
e------------------------|
B--4---------------------|
G----5------5-----5------|
D------4-6----4-6--------|
A------------------------|
E------------------------|
This is played over a few times before the rest of the band kick in and
it?s played during the chorus too.
Ok.. and here?s the chord progression:
Bb/F C# G# F#
e--1--|--4--|--4--|--2--|--|
B--1--|--4--|--4--|--2--|--|
G--3--|--6--|--5--|--3--|--|
D--3--|--6--|--6--|--4--|--|
A--1--|--4--|--6--|--4--|--|
E--1--|--4--|--4--|--2--|--|
That?s played for the verse and the chorus
VERSE
I'm on parade, you don't say
Why can't you see that

CHORUS
When you're around
You just get me down

VERSE
All of the years add up to
Why can't you see that

CHORUS

G# F# Bb
