SET THE HOUSE ABLAZE
(Paul Weller)
This looks very complicated to understand cos I can't include lyrics but
it's very easy and there's a basic
chord summary at the end. If you listen to the record
you can place all the bits together.
Chords used:
Bm: x24432
G: 320033
Eb: xx5343
Cm: x35543
D: xx0232
F#m: 244222
C#m: x46654
A: x02220
G/F#: 2x0033
Intro:
Guitar 1:
RIFF 1
N.C.
The seventh time this riff is played guitar 2 comes in with a single chord:
Guitar 2:
RIFF 2
[Bm]
[--2--]
[--3--]
[--4--]
[--4--]
[-----]
[-----]
Verse One (repeat riff 1 throughout)
I was in the pub...
The chords for the verse are Bm and G - the G is implied by the bass.
Chorus
[Eb][Cm]
Something you said .... (x2)
[Eb] [Cm] [D]
Something you ...
Back to riff one (x12)
Verse two
'You [(Bm)]was so open-minded...
Repeat riff one throughout (there is no guitar slash
at the start of this verse)
Middle eight:
The middle eight is in two sections:
Here you play the chords:
F#m C#m (x4)
I think we've lost our perception... etc.
Third time:
[C#m]
..reason...
D C#m A (x3)
I wish that there was something.....do about it...
Repeat chorus.
Break:
[Bm] [G]
second time you play G - flick the rhythm/treble switch very quickly.
Then play this riff x6 during the indechipherable spoken part.
[Bm] [G] [G/F#]
Note: 5th time the there is a pinch harmonic (?)on the
7th fret instead of a Bm chord.
Then play Riff 1 x 4 and repeat the chorus
Chorus.
Coda:
Riff 1 is played around 20 times then after about 15
times a rhythm guitar comes in playing Bm G G/F#
and the riff dissapears in the mix and then drops out.
Before coming back along with the rhythm guitar and it's continued until
the song ends on Bm.
So, a brief summary is
Intro: Bm G (x6)
Verse: Bm G (x3)
Chorus: Eb Cm (x3) D
Verse two: Bm G (x2)
Middle eight: F#m C#m (x4) D C#m A (x2) A
Chorus: as chorus 1
Break: Bm G (x2)
Spoken bit: Bm G G/F# (x6)
Chorus: as chorus 1
Coda: Bm G G/F# to end.
I hope you understand - if I'm completely wrong please
correct me! Cheers.
