Beauty of the Ride

by Sebadoh

>From the Album "Harmacy"

Standard Tuning (EADGBE)

Opening Riff

e--2---2-----2----5-5-5--

B--2-----3---2----5-5-5--

G--4-------2-4----7-7-7-- (x 4)

D--4---------4----7-7-7--

A--x---------X----X-X-X--

E--X---------X----X-X-X--

Never did and never will,

That's the way its always been

I've made mistakes before

I'll make the same again

And all this tension we ignore

Surely works its ugly way..... inside

Repeat pattern for Verse Two

I have known that nothing's fair

What could I expect

When magic slips into the air

And every day's another test

And all this tension we ignore

Surely works its ugly way.... outside

So let it build, let it explode

Leaving blood and shattered bone

Or bite your tongue til you've forgotten what to say

And take another step back

Until you find you've walked away

Opening Riff (4 times)

Bm (cut off)

Silence like disease,

F#(upstroke, let ring)

But I dare not say it hurts

Bm(muted)

Cause if I honestly react

A F#(both muted)

Nothing's ever gonna work

And all this tension back and forth

It's just the beauty of the ride...

It's just the beauty of the ride....

Repeat Chorus

Repeat Opening Riff times 4

That's all folks!

This really isn't a difficult song....just listen to the album for the

timing....
