THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES - Pinkerton Thugs
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
By: sonic_monkey@hotmail.com
Okay, this song is pretty simple but you have to listen to the recording to
get the rhythm. There are a couple progressions using the same chords, with
slight changes in each one, so you have to pay attention.
INTRO
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--222---------777---------444----------------------------------------------|
A|--222---------777---------444----------------------------------------------|
E|--000---------555---------222----------------------------------------------|
Let each chord ring . . . then on the fourth time play this:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--222---------777---------999----------------------------------------------|
A|--222---------777---------999----------------------------------------------|
E|--000---------555---------777----------------------------------------------|
Then the verse is this:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--7-7--7-7-7---6--6-6-6-6---4--4-4-4-4---2--2-2-2-2------------------------|
A|--7-7--7-7-7---6--6-6-6-6---4--4-4-4-4---2--2-2-2-2------------------------|
E|--5-5--5-5-5---4--4-4-4-4---2--2-2-2-2---0--0-0-0-0------------------------|
Then on the fourth time play this:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--7-7--7-7-7---6--6-6-6-6---7--7-7-7-7---9--9-9-9-9------------------------|
A|--7-7--7-7-7---6--6-6-6-6---7--7-7-7-7---9--9-9-9-9------------------------|
E|--5-5--5-5-5---4--4-4-4-4---5--5-5-5-5---7--7-7-7-7------------------------|
Then the chorus:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--2--2-2--2-2-2--6--6-6--6-6-6--7--7-7--7-7-7--7--7-7--7-7-7----9----------|
A|--2--2-2--2-2-2--6--6-6--6-6-6--7--7-7--7-7-7--7--7-7--7-7-7----9----------|
E|--0--0-0--0-0-0--4--4-4--4-4-4--5--5-5--5-5-5--5--5-5--5-5-5----7----------|
Strum the last chord, then repeat the verse again, and the chorus, and then
the bridge comes:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--2------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--2------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--0------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Just keep hitting this chord and letting it ring - again, listen to the CD.
Then when the singing starts ("You can claim you're red or black now . . .")
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--22222222222222222---7--7-7-7-7-7-7--9--9-9-9-9-9-9-----------------------|
A|--22222222222222222---7--7-7-7-7-7-7--9--9-9-9-9-9-9-----------------------|
E|--00000000000000000---5--5-5-5-5-5-5--7--7-7-7-7-7-7-----------------------|
Then repeat that progressino again, without the palm-mutes. When the chorus
of "Support Peruvian rebels" comes back, the bridge and chorus progressions
sort of fuse together into this:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--2--2-2-2-2--666-6-6-6-6--777--7-7-7-7--999-9-9-9-9-----------------------|
A|--2--2-2-2-2--666-6-6-6-6--777--7-7-7-7--999-7-7-7-7-----------------------|
E|--0--0-0-0-0--444-4-4-4-4--555--5-5-5-5--777-7-7-7-7-----------------------|
Then just end on this chord and let it ring out:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--2------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--2------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--0------------------------------------------------------------------------|
There you go! That should be just about perfect. Listen to the song to get
the rhythm. This is my favorite Pinkerton Thugs song and a very cool song.
Have fun!
