GASOLINE, (Nathan, Keri Lattimer (nee McTighe):
This is a great energy song and it is played with open sounding chords, so if you like that sound you should
drop tune by a half step.
For the detune: Half Step Down
tuning = Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
verse: Am G x 3, F G
chorus: F G, F C Bb, Am G
I like to perform the song with a rhythmic strum, so I prefer standard tuning. I use barr chords all the way
through except for the E chord. Here is my version:
verse – G#m F# x 3, e F#
chorus – E F#, E B A F#, G#m F#
PS Chords appear over the word indicating when to strum.
1st Verse:
G#m
Hands glued to the steering wheel,
F#
smack between a ledge straight down
G#m F#
and a wall of spruce as thick as thieves.
G#m
And as sure as a sharp corner comes
F#
a jack-knife kind of creepiness,
G#m F#
sweeps up and over me.
Chorus:
E G#m
Oh gasoline don’t leak out on me,
E B
two thousand miles left to go a brand new name,
A E
haircut, hell make me a blond
G#m F#
if it’ll blend me in, it’ll blend me in.
G#m
“lovely weather for an April day,
F#
I just came through Saskatchewan
G#m F#
from as south as you can drive before you drop.”
G#m
Said he just planned on passing through,
F#
but that he didn’t know he’d crash into
E F#
tarnation pouring coffee at a lonely old truck…stop.
Chorus (same as above, same everytime)
E
Down it goes from there on in,
G#m
I’m a sucker for attention when
E G#m
it revs up to me wheeling like a screech.
G#m
But by degrees his grip got tight,
F#
suspicion turned his knuckles white,
E F# E
had to drive them in my face to find relief.
solo :
C#m, B, C#m, B, E, F#
C#m, B, E, E, E, F#
C#m B
Where I found the muster is a mystery best left
C#m E
in apartments found deserted and a semi-trailer theft.
E
Where you ended I’ll pick up,
G#m
onwards to Tuktoyaktuk,
E F#
about as north as you can go before you drop.
Chorus
