I watched the music video a bit to see what they were doing, and while it looks
slighty different I think this accomplishes that suuuuper funky guitar sound
which is basically this modified C power chord where your index finger walks
the root down chromatically (one fret at a time).
All the chords look something like this
C/A C/Ab C/G F C A E/F
e|--- --- --- --- --- --- ---
B|--- --- --- --- --- --- ---
G|-5- -5- -5- --- -5- --- ---
D|-5- -5- -5- -3- -5- -7- -2-
A|--- --- --- -3- -3- -7- -3- (maybe a 0 here?)
E|-5- -4- -3- -1- --- -5- -0-
[Verse 1]
Such a
C/A C/Ab
hot habanero you can
C/G F
feel it in your jaw, you said
C C/Ab
"This never happens to me
C/A C/Ab
This never happens" but you
C/A C/Ab
Smile while you suffer so you're
C/G F
lying or wrong and I
C C/Ab
I'm never happy but I've
C/A C/Ab
Never been better I
[Pre-Chorus]
A F
Need to see you sweat, I
A F
Need to see you, I
A F
Need to see you sweat
[Chorus]
E/F F C C/Ab C/A
Wouldn't we be perfect together if we wanted exactly the same thing?
E/F F C C/Ab C/A
Wouldn't we be perfect together if we wanted exactly the same? If we
C C/Ab A
Wanted exactly the same? You're so
[Verse 2]
A C/Ab
Hot it's embarrassing I
C/G F
Feel it in my cheeks I say
C C/Ab
"This never happens to me
C/A C/Ab
This never happens" but I
C/A C/Ab
Smile while I suffer like a
C/G F
sucker supreme, and I
C C/Ab
I'm never happy but I've
C/A C/Ab
Never been better, I
[Pre-Chorus]
A F
Need to see you sweat, I
A F
Need to see you, I
A F
Need to see you sweat
[Chorus]
E/F F C C/Ab C/A
Wouldn't we be perfect together if we wanted exactly the same thing?
E/F F C C/Ab C/A
Wouldn't we be perfect together if we wanted exactly the same? If we
C C/Ab A
Wanted exactly the same?
