4 Chords Of The Apocalypse Chords

(ver. 1)
Julian Casablancas
I am basically just tabbing this one out the way julian does it acoustically. It is 
to see him play it this way and hope you enjoy the chords and the this acoustic version.

    D    A    A7    G    D   A   A7  G    A7
e|--10---x----15----x----2---0---3----3----5-------------------------------|
B|--10--14----14---12----3---2---2----3----8-------------------------------|
G|--11--14----14---12----2---2---2----0----6-------------------------------|

A|--12--12----12---10----x---0---0----2----7-------------------------------|
E|--10---x-----x----x----x---x---x----3----5-------------------------------|

For the the first two parts of the chorus it's played like this
            D                     A                     A7
e|---------------------]---------------------]----------15-----------------|

D|-------12----12------]----14----------14---]----14----------14-----------|
A|----12----------12---]-12----------------12]-12----------------12--------|

            G
e|---------------------]---------------------------------------------------|

G|-------12----12------]---------------------------------------------------|
D|----12----------12---]---------------------------------------------------|
A|-10----------------10]---------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------]---------------------------------------------------|

                    D                       A
I hear it in your silence, when you don't speak.
                A7                   D
What was funny then, isn't funny anymore.
                       G                        D
I can hear it in your voice, there's always a catch.
              A                              D         A
Where going nowhere, and we are going there fast.
              D                 A                 A7
Anything to watch while we are waiting for this Apocalypse
               D
What more is there to do?
                   G                              D
It's nice to be important, but so close to being despised.
                           A                     D           A
It's more important to be nice, I guess, than being wise.


The rest of the song's chorus' play like this.
         D              A              A7             G
e|-------2------]-------0------]-------3------]-------3------]-------------|
B|-----3---3----]-----2---2----]-----2---2----]-------3------]-------------|
G|---2-------2--]---2-------2--]---2-------2--]--------------]-------------|
D|-0-----------0]-2-----------2]-2-----------2]-----0---0----]-------------|
A|--------------]--------------]--------------]---2-------2--]-------------|
E|--------------]--------------]--------------]-3-----------3]-------------|

                D                      A
I'll take you shopping, i'll take you dancing too.
             A7                           D
I'll take you out, all the things you wanna do.
               G                          D
I'll give you diamonds, and i'll give you space.
                     A                       D        A
So be with anyone you want, it's alright with me.

D          A7
Our time is over
                         D              A7
Don't you know that if a, time warp was open

I'd stay right in my place
D           A7
That war is over

Solo (there is a good solo on this site already use that if you want the solo)
                   D                     A
I hear it in your voice, when you don't speak.
                 A7                                 D
There is a quiet crying rage, burning inside you so deep.
                G                          D
I'll give you anything, but i'll give you problems.
                         A                      D          A
So be be with anyone you want, it's alright with me.
                  D                        A
I hear it in your voice, I see it in your lips.
                  A7                                D
There's always a catch... I guess that's alright with me.
           G                               D
No one's around, but the map says "you are here."
                  A                       D            A
Now I can hear loneliness screaming in my ear.

Last chorus

D          A7
Our time is over
                         D             A7
Don't you know that if a time warp was open

I'd stay right in my place
D              A7
This war ain't over yet
D              A7
This war ain't over yet....
D                  A7    D          A7
