Century 
by +Live+ 
#4 on Secret Samadhi

transcribed by Andy Dufresne (dufresne@deskmedia.com)

This is one of the cooler songs on the new album. Tune down ½ step
to Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb.  All chords are written as they would be 
played in standard tuning (ie- the F# is technically an F).  I would 
make a chord key, but that would take a while and you should all 
know these chords anyway. Ok, now the song:



EF#
Everybody's here
E
puke stinks like beer
F#
this could be a city
E
this could be a graveyard
F#
you stole my idea
EF#
you stole my idea

E         F#
everybody's anxious
E
for the coming of the crisis
F#
the collapse of the justice
E
I can smell your armpits
F#
you stole my idea
E
you stole my idea
F#
you stole my idea


CHORUS:
F#G
this puke stinks like beer and everybody's here
GF#
come on, come on, come on
G  F#E          G  F#  E
let's lay waste to this century
GF#
come on, come on, come on
GE
return to nothing


EF#
everybody's anxious
E
the crowd is all around us
F#
the followers of Aldous
    E
are spinning with their mescaline
F#
a man behind the altar screams
E
you stole my idea
F#E
you were my idea


(CHORUS)

GF#
come on, come on, come on
G    F#E   G  F#  E
let's lay waste to this century

BRIDGE:
F#GA
on the edge of a kiss, smack on the lips
Cm
dangled with tongue
F#GA
on the edge of a peace that can't stand low
Cm
and won't stand tall

GF#
come on, come on, come on
G    F#E   G  F#  E
let's lay waste to this century
GF#
come on, come on, come on
G     E     G      F#
return to nothing, and help me
G   F#   E
it's amazing what we can do with love
G F# EG    F#     E
with some matches and gasoline, do with love
GF#  E   GF#E
it's amazing what we can do with love

"Century" by Live
On the new album, Secret Samadhi

This is a cool song from Live's latest album.  The album's really good, 
but it's something that definitely grows on you as you listen to it.

Transcribed by spider@olemiss.edu

Tune a 1/2 step down, as per usual for about 99% of Live's songs.

This is real easy, but here's one of the main chords he uses:

F#7 sus4/E (F sharp 7 suspended 4 with an E bass, I know, I know,
it sounds a lot harder than it actaully is.  It's 
basically an open E chord moved up two frets.)

eb:---0----|
Bb:---0----|
Gb:---2----|
Db:---4----|
Ab:---4----|
Eb:---0----|



Verse:
(using Chorus)

EF#7 sus4/E
  Everybody's here...   (simply repeat these two chords for the verse,
 and listen to the song to get the correct
 strumming pattern.)


Chorus:
(using distortion)

    B
this puke stinks like beer,
(B)
and everybody's here, so
A      G
come on, come on, come on,
 F#   E
let's lay waste to this 
   B   A   B
century...
A      G
come on, come on, come on,
 F#   E
return to nothing...

(again, listen for the strumming pattern; there's some chunk-a-chunk-a 
 muting on the A chord.  Also, all the other chorus' all simply extended
 versions of the first, so listen for those changes, too)


Bridge:

F#   G    A
  On the edge, of a kiss, smack on the lips
D
  dangled with tongue
F#   G      A
  On the edge, of a peace, that can't stand low
B
  and won't stand tall!


That's pretty much all the parts to this song; just piece them together
and have fun!
