The Radio Dept. - 1995

      ========== The Radio Dept - 1995 =========

Standard tuning: EADGBE

No capo

==========================================

================= Verse ==================

The verse uses the same short pattern all the way through, shown below:

Pattern #1

e|------------------------------------|              
B|------------------------------------|
G|------------------------------------| 
D|---6-6-6-6-4-7-6-6-1-1-1-1-2-2-2-2--|
A|--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---|
E|------------------------------------|

Pattern #2

This is exactly the same but 5 steps higher. You could move everything down
1 string (physically) so it's played on the D and G strings or 5 frets up the
neck (which I prefer), shown below:

e|-----------------------------------------------------|              
B|-----------------------------------------------------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------|
D|----11--11--11--11--9---12--11--11--6-6-6-6-7-7-7-7--|
A|--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---|
E|-----------------------------------------------------|

The sequence is 2x Pattern #1, 1x Pattern #2, 1x Pattern #1. Then repeat the
second half of Pattern #1 before the chorus.

=============== Chorus ===============

The chorus is played on the first three strings:

e|-------12-------12---------------12-------12---------|
B|----12-------12-------12------12-------12-------12---|
G|-14-------14-------14------14-------14-------14------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|

e|-------12--------12---------------12-------12--------|
B|----12--------12-------12------12-------12-------12--|
G|-13--------13-------13------13-------13-------13-----|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|

e|-------12-------12---------------12-------12---------|
B|----12-------12-------12------12-------12-------12---|
G|-14-------14-------14------13-------13-------13------|
D|-----------------------------------------------------|

Repeat once

1995 is missing buses
     B                            E
It's walking 15 miles to see your love

It's knowing you're alive through all the fuzz
     B
It's never coming down from going up

A
1995 is cutting classes
     E                            A
It's sitting over coffees talking indie treats
E                                              B
It's the mere sensation of being the first one that you see
                   E
When morning opens up the skies
B                              E
You see me when daylight opens up your eyes

                       A                     E
And though I'm happier now I always long somehow       (x3)

All my friends have different plans to make their lives worthwhile

Some for the better
E
Some for the worse
                                                   B
Some have gone to different cities searching every mile
                             E
For missing pieces that will make a whole

A
1995 seems like a long way to go
E                             A
If you ever were to find your way back home
    E                                               B
The only thing I really miss is being the first one that you see
