The Best Room Lyrics
by Modest Mouse
(Guitar 1)
Let loose with your charms, go reckless, unharmed
To the empty balconies we seranade...
(Guitar 2 Fill)
During "All them playgrounds where them kids don't get to play,"
this fill lands on the beat of the word "play."
The same part is played, but with this playing as well:
(Guitar 2, distorted with heavy bending)
Some harmonics are played at the end, but I can't figure them out.
horus
(Only ambient guitar is played here; so here are the approximate chords.)
These western concerns are all I ever really learned to be concerned with
But don't you, don't you know it's hard feeling tired
Every time that you try
Ain't it hard feeling tired all the time
Transition with only drums and bass, same chords as verse if you want to play them
The family living upstairs must have a fleet of rider lawnmowers
And the novelist to my right's convinced that every woman's a whore
This solo has 3 guitar parts overlapped. Guitar 1 is the most prominent,
Guitar 2 is fairly in the background, and Guitar 3 comes in on the 5th bar fairly loud.
(Guitar 1)
(Guitar 2)
(Guitar 3)
-Rest for 4 bars beforehand-
Play with heavy bends
ridge
(Guitar riff w/ heavy tremolo & delay)
This is repeated for a while over the chords until "I'm going to bury my head..."
(no guitar parts for the first set of Ahs)
Ah - ah - ah
(Lightly strummed guitar, starting at the second set of "Ahs")
Simply ad-lib the rhythm, there's no real pattern here.
Well don't you, don't you know it's hard
Feelin' tired every time that you try
Ain't it hard feelin' tired all the time Well don't you, don't you know
(Only bass and drums until the fill)
I'm going to bury my head in the woods right now
(Fill)
Scan for some mycelium and bring a little back to town
Well don't you, don't you know it's
(Louder strummed guitar)
hard, feelin' tired every time that you try? Ain't it
hard, feelin' tired all the time
The guitar from the verse is played again, along with the solo guitar. These are now repeated until
the ending Am chord on "all goin' apesh*t."
(Guitar 1)
Go reckless, unharmed...
Take note that after playing this twice, the bass goes to an F and E in the bass
instead of a C and A. This doesn't change the guitar part but if you're working out
a solo version you should keep this in mind.
(Guitar 2)
Go reckless, unharmed...
