The Machman Bass

(ver. 1)
Gary Numan
This is my first one and I don't usually submit, but the other was incorect. Im not sure 
how to write the timing, but you should know it. This is what it is:

Main riff/intro:

G----------------------|----------------------|---------------------|-----------------------:|
D----2-----------------|-----2----------------|----2----------------|-----------------------:|
A-------2--4--4--------|--------2--4--4-------|-------2--4--4-------|-5--4----5--4----------:|
E--0-------------2--0--|--0--------------2--0-|--0-------------2--0-|-----------------------:|

Throughout the song, then the chorus which is:

E                      B
I'd give it all up for you

D                             A
I'd even be a number just for you

E
The strangest living boy

D              C#      C
You could ever wish to see

C
That's me

I saw him turn on
Like a machine in the park
Saying `please come with me'
But you've been there before
I saw him whirr away
Into the night
Like a nightmare on wheels
Saying `never again'

I'd give it all up for you
I'd even be a number just for you
The strangest living boy
You could ever wish to see
`That's me'

Yellowed newspapers
Tell the story of someone
`Do you know this man?'
Tomorrow the cure
Only police ever
See night time for real
Turn on the light
And cry `no more, no more'

I was standing outside your door
Waiting for the grey men to go
When my mind turned on me
With a vengeance I had never known
My own

Everyone heard
The voice on the radio
Saying `why move around
And waste my time'
There are no
Independents anymore
The tape is a circle
But who really cares

I saw you behind the wall
I even heard you laugh at me
You disgust me tonight
With your answer to something new
That's you

just do octave slap and pops for the chorus i suppose, its fairly easy

Please COmment
