Very hard to drink Following each C chord in this leadin to the chorus, this riff is played: E---------------------------| B---------------------------| Parentheses indicate hammering G--------------3-(5)-0-2--| D--------3-(5)-------------| A--3-(5)-------------------| E---------------------------| This riff is closely followed by the A chord in the next series of chords whether its the A-B-C of the leadin or the chorus itself (A-D-C-D) after the second verse. The exception being in the first verse where the song goes into a soft interlude: E---5-5-10--12-10-----------8-10--12-10------------| B---5-5-10--------10-12-10--8-10--------10-12-10-| G---------------------------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------------------| As mentioned above, the chorus is simply A to D to C and back to D.

Verse: D D6 D C6 C C6 C C6 C C6 Unsuspecting brother .... doesn't know what to do Bb6 Bb G When everything just falls to the ground... (same again) He runs to find some cover, he doesn't have a clue That his friend will never be found. Bb C Bb G When he's been told, that he.... Chorus: [Over-drive/distortion] F F F D F D# Will never see the boy, will never see the boy, Bb G Will never see him open his eyes. D F D We'll never see the boy, we'll never see the boy Bb G We'll only hear his heavenly cries Bb C Bb G F F F Ooh yeah, ooh. D A Bb G D A Bb C Ooh! Ooh! After second chorus, the interlude repeats: D / A G F / / / Chord progression before the song holds on C is D / A G F E D C In case you haven't figured it out, after the power C which holds for 8 beats a power D is played and held for 8 beats. The song finishes with an indecipherable sequence which seems to be just C and D in no particular order. I just play this by repeating: E-----------------------------------------------| B---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------| G---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------| D---7---5---7---5---5---(7)---5-----------------| A-----------------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------------| The same chord progression described above is played (a little quicker) after this little interlude and finishes like this: C / / / / / / D Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) PURE MASSACRE by silverchair Transposed by Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) Introduction / Verse E---------------------------------------------| B---------------------------------------------| G------------------------------5-5------------| D---5-(6)-7-7-7-6^-*-5-5-7-7-7-----5-5-5-(7)--| A---------------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------------| and so on...

For the chorus, repeat (including the beginning C (may be a C5 if you can't be bothered) when repeating): C G F G Bb Pure Massacre!! Pure Massacre!! D5 / D5/F D5 / D5/F D5 C5 D5 D5 / D5/F D5 The lead out of the chorus takes you straight back into the verse chords. There is an interlude: D Bb C G D Bb C G There's people crying ..... there's people dying. D Bb C G D Bb C5 But someone's taking ..... it all... These chords are also used at the end: D Bb / C G Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) LEAVE ME OUT by silverchair Transcribed by Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) Given the below combinations, the song goes: Introduction Verse x 2 Chorus Verse Riff (backed by verse baseline) Chorus Bridge Chorus Introduction chords: Bb / / / / / / / C / / / / / / / Verse chords: D D G F D C# C E--5--5-----3-----1--5--4--3--| B--7--7-----3-----1--7--6--5--| G--7--7-----4-----2--7--6--5--| D--7--7-----5-----3--7--6--5--| x 4 A--5--5-----5-----3--5--4--3--| E--------0--3--0--1-----------| then: C / / / / / / / G G G G G (E) F E-------------------------| B-------------------------| G-------------------------| D--5--5--5--5--5-----3----| ^ = bend if possible A--5--5--5--5--5-----3----| E--3--3--3--3--3--0--1^---| Chorus Chords: D / / / / B F (E) F G x 4 | | | | \/ \/ F (E) F G E-------1------------1----3-----| B-------1------------1----3-----| G-------2------------2----4-----| D-------3------------3----5-----| A-------3------------3----5-----| E-------1-----0------1----3-----| A / / / / / / / G# / / / G F Riff: E-----------------------------------------| B--10--10--10--12^--10--12^^--10--9--8----| G-----------------------------------------| ^ = bend D-----------------------------------------| ^^ = bend further A-----------------------------------------| E-----------------------------------------| Bridge: D / / / / / / A D / / / / / / E D / / / / / / A D / / / / / / E G / / / / / / / F / / / / / / / G / / / / / / / G# / / / Bb / Bb A G# *pause* Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) Suicidal Dream by Silverchair Alright heres the main riffs from Suicial Dream off of the Frogstomp cd.

D-A-F-C-G-D - but that's too much of a bugger when you can "get away" with normal tuning: There are various rhythms to the main riff in the song, but if you stick by this and then adapt it to the drumbeat, you won't go wrong: E-----------------------------| B-----------------------------| G---1__2--1--*----------*-----| * = silence D---2__3--2--*--2--0--2-*-----| _ = slide A---2__3--2--*--2--0--2-*-----| E-----------------------------| Change at end of verse: G A Bb ----- Chorus: E G F Bb Undecided, E G D A can't make up their mi-i-i-i-ind E G F Bb Her parents were lying, E G D A they've left you behi-i-i-i-ind... ----- Bridge: F# / / / B / A E x 4 ----- End: E---------------------------| B---------------------------| G---------------------------| x 3 D--2--0--2--0--2--3--2--0---| A--2--0--2--0--2--3--2--0---|then E chord to finish E---------------------------| Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) CICADA by silverchair Transcribed by Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) Introduction: E / G A / Change: C D Verse: E F# G A * Change: E D# D C# C D * = sometimes these chords are played as a baseline only.

Living a life of fear, I only want my mind to be clear. People making fun of me, For no reason but jealousy. I fantasise about my death, I kill myself from holding my breath... My suicidal dream... Voices telling me what to do, My suicidal dream... I'm sure you will get your's too... Help me, comfort me, Stop me from feeling, what I'm feeling now!

Dreamin' about my death, Dream... Suicidal! Suicidal! Suicidal Dream. My suicidal, suicidal dream! UNDECIDED Ooh, There's no time to choose for yourself, It's like the candle's lit at both ends now, Did Syria rain in filth? Parents breaking up. Wish they would decide Whether the two of them together, Can make up their mind. They wonder why you need someone, You get no freedom at all. They want you to drop down and conform, They make your self-esteem fall, Undecided. Can't make up their mind. Her parents were lying, they've left you behind. If there's a lock to their minds, can you tell me please? I wanna stay, stay to get the keys. Undecided. Can't make up their mind. Her parents were lying, they've left you behind. Her mother doesn't even know her name, undecided. If there is trouble she just gives up yeah, but denies it. Undecided. Can't make up their mind. Her parents were lying, they've left you behind. Undecided, undecided. Undecided, undecided. ooh! CICADA When he was just a little boy, He only had one favourite toy. And he had nothing on his mind, He never left anything behind, no... As he got older things got worse, Like he'd been born under a curse. Things started to fall apart, Well would life be well at the start? no... It's like a civil war, Growing up! It's like a civil war, Don't turn away, it's something you can't ignore, Growing up - it's like a civil war! And now that he was in his jeans, He started to live what life means. Problems still appearing, They didn't look like disappearing, no... It's like a civil war, Growing up! It's like a civil war, Don't turn away, it's something you can't ignore, Growing up! Growing up! It's like a civil war, Don't turn away, it's something you can't ignore, Growing up! It's like a civil war, Don't turn away, it's something you can't ignore, Growing up - it's like a civil war! FINDAWAY You've been locked up, and needed to escape, You proved to all it was a first offence. A drug addiction subtracting all your priviliges, Giving up just makes no sense. We'll findaway We'll findaway Don't give in, don't give in. Don't give in, don't give in. All you can think about is breaking free, You can make it on your own. You're thinking negative, nothing can go right, It's eatin' you down to the bone! We'll findaway We'll findaway Don't give in, don't give in. Don't give in, don't give in. ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh We'll findaway We'll findaway Don't give in, don't give in. Don't give in, don't give in. ooh!! Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au) 1
