SOL 320033
RE 000232
LA 002220
standard tuning.
intro: (i only wrote out the melody on the upper strings..
i believe it goes through 3x) rhythm is dotted
e-|-----0--------3-------5-5-3-3-2-2---|
b-|-3-3----3-3-3---3-3-3-------------3-|
listen to the cd for the rhythm, it goes kinda like: XX--XX--XX--X-X- if each
dash is an eighth note and that's two bars rhythmically. The A chord is on the
last two quarter notes X-X- and the D is on the XX--XX it has a slight swing
feel with the eighths, don't play it straight. Feel free to embellish the rhythm,
this is just a basic guideline.
Couldn't ask for a better day, two by two
RE LA LA RE
To the ring to the right point of view
RE LA LA RE
Each retreat to the corner that's defined by you
RE LA LA RE
To the ring to the right point of...
RE LA
the rhythm changes up here X-X-X-X-X-X-X-X all on quarter notes, each chord gets
two quarter notes. really it feels more like a quarter and then two eighths, but
most simply, you can just do two quarters.
Chorus
Lonely Reign
RE LA SOL LA RE LA SOL LA
She is the Boxer, she knows
RE LA SOL LA
when and where to strike
RE LA SOL LA
He is the Boxer, he knows,
RE LA SOL LA
no peaceful sleep tonight
RE LA SOL LA
(same as verse 1)
Caught the downfall of Pete and May, Ryan too
(He did not approve of Callie's mood)
Doctor Mike was 'fight or flight' at Dundrum School
To the right to the right point of...
(same as chorus- except for last line)
No return. No passion left to burn.
The Boxers grow weary.
Their eyesight...blurry view.
RE LA SOL
Chorus
All's quiet on the front. Smokey room.
Boxer standing tall, peering through
Finding no one left to fight
What to do?
To the ring to the right point of view...
(begining melody) (back into DAGA progression)
Chorus
lonely reign
lonely reign
lonely reign
(whistle)
ending:
MI- -3-2-0-
