The funny-looking lines are musical notes. The numbers above the notes are just the relative durations for the benefit of the notationally impaired. The first chord of each line is actually just a single note or perhaps just the two or three lowest strings. The last C(9) in the first two lines is only played sometimes; other times it’s just an eighth note at the end of the measure and other times there’s _no_ chord after the C*. F: x33211 or 133211 (fret the E string with your thumb) F(9): x33011 or 133011 (fret the E string with your thumb) C(9): 330010 C*: hammer-on (quickly) from 330010 to 332010 C: 332010 G: 320003 Am: x02210 2 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 2 | +--+--+--+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | / / / / / / / . / . / (9) (9) (9) * (9) 2 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 2 | +--+--+--+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | / / / / / / / . / . / (9) (9) (9) * (9) 2 1 1 1 1 2 3 3 2 | +--+--+--+ | | | | | | | | | | | | | / / / / / / / . / . / (9) (9) (9) * (9) 2 1 1 2 2 3 2 1 1 1 | +--+ | | | | +--+--+ | | | | | | | | | | / / / / / / . / / / / mostly just like this: 2 1 1 2 1 1 | +--+ | +--+ | | | | | | / / / / / / - Adam Schneider [email protected]

À propos de la chanson

Cette chanson évoque la douleur de la séparation et le sentiment de regret face à un amour qui s'éteint. Elle raconte l’histoire d'une femme qui, malgré tous ses efforts pour plaire, réalise que son partenaire est indifférent à ses sentiments. Elle finit par s’en aller, consciente que son absence ne laissera pas un grand vide. L'homme, quant à lui, semble englué dans ses propres déboires, incapable de comprendre ce qu'il perd. Dans le contexte, on sent une atmosphère de désillusion où les deux personnages prennent conscience de leur incompatibilité. La relation est marquée par un manque de communication et un désintérêt, ce qui rend leur séparation inévitable. Les souvenirs et les instants partagés se heurtent à la réalité d'une connexion qui s’est fissurée.
