Lyric and Chord Guitar Artic Monkeys - A Certain Romans

Verse 1
B
Well oh they might wear classic Reeboks
B
Or knackered Converse
B
Or tracky bottoms tucked in socks
E
But all of that's what the point is not
                               Em
The point's that there ain't no romance around there
B
And there's the truth that they can't see
B
They'd probably like to throw a punch at me
B      E
And if you could only see them, then you would agree
Em
Agree that there ain't no romance around there
(The verses are all upstroked, like kinda ska rythm n that)

Chorus
   Abm             F#   
You know, oh it's a funny thing you know
     E
We'll tell 'em if you like
     Em
We'll tell 'em all tonight
             B
They'll never listen
           Abm
Cause their minds are made up
   C#m                     F#                 B
And course it's all okay to carry on that way


Verse 2
B
And over there there's broken bones
B
There's only music, so that there's new ringtones
E
 And it don't take no Sherlock Holmes
                    Em
To see it's a little different around here
B
Don't get me wrong, oh there's boys in bands
B
And kids who like to scrap with pool cues in their hands
E
And just cause he's had a coupla cans
                         Em
He thinks it's alright to act like a dickhead

Chorus
   Abm             F#   
You know, oh it's a funny thing you know
     E
We'll tell 'em if you like
     Em
We'll tell 'em all tonight
             B
They'll never listen
           Abm
Cause their minds are made up
   C#m                     F#
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

Cause their minds are made up
   C#m                     F#
And course it's all okay to carry on that way

      Abm
I said no
  F#
Oh no!
      E               Em
Oh you won't get me to go!
B         Abm
Anywhere, said anywhere
 C#m       F#
I won't go
         B
Oh no no!

verse
B
Well over there there's friends of mine
B
What can I say, I've known 'em for a long long time
E
And yeah they might overstep the line
                      Em               B
But I just cannot get angry in the same way
B
Not in the same way
               E
Not in the same way
            Em
Oh no, oh no no

Lyric and Chord Guitar Artic Monkeys - When The Sun Goes Down

B                       Eb7
 So who's that girl there?
E/Eb
 I wonder what went wrong
            Ebm
So that she had to roam the streets
     E/Eb
She don't do major credit cards
   Ebm
I doubt she does receipts
                    C#m       C#m F# E Ebm C#m Ebm
It's all not quite legitimate

B                  Eb7
 And what a scummy man
    E/Eb
Just give him half a chance
            Ebm
I bet he'll rob you if he can
  E/Eb
Can see it in his eyes, yeah
        Ebm
That he's got a driving ban
                 C#m         C#m F# E Ebm C#m Ebm
Amongst some other offences

G#m                      Ebm
 And I've seen him with girls of the night
  G#m                     Ebm
And he told Roxanne to put on her red light
G#m                        Ebm
 They're all infected but he'll be alright
          C#m        Ebm            E  F#  (start strumming on this line)
Cause he's a scumbag, don't you know
                              Bm
I said he's a scumbag, don't you know!

G F#(v2)Bm- repeat a few times  (only really play bottom 2 strings)


G F#(v2) Bm

  (bass)
Although you're trying not to listen
I bet your eyes are staring at the ground
She makes a subtle proposition
Sorry love I'll have to turn you down

G F# Bm (palm muted through verse)
And oh he must be up to something
Want half a chance to show he's more than likely
I've got a feeling in my stomach
I start to wonder what his story might be
What his story might be

Em           F#m               Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
 Em           F#m               Bm
Around here
A        F#m
Around

riff (guitar 1)
G F#(v2) Bm (guitar 2)
And look here comes a Ford Mondeo
Isn't he Mister Inconspicuous
And he don't have to say 'owt
She understands she's here to get picked up
And she's delighted when she sees him
Pulling in and giving her the eye
Because she must be fucking freezing
Scantily clad beneath the clear night sky
She don't stop in the winter, no and...

Em           F#m               Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
 Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
Around here
Em           F#m               Bm
They said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
 Em           F#m               Bm
And they said it changes when the sun goes down
Em           F#m               Bm
Around here
A       F#m
Around here


B               Eb7
What a scummy man
E/Eb
Just give him half a chance
          Ebm
I bet he'll rob you if he can
  E/Eb                                 Ebm
Can see it in his eyes that he's got a nasty plan
             C#m        Ebm            E  F#
I hope you're not involved at all
