Roads by Portishead ------------------- Tabbed by Frederic Maquet
The Am chord is sometimes "sussed" to add a transition, but mostly chords are just strummed once with lots of echo and reverb and a bit of distortion. The strumming can be slightly tricky if you're singing at the same time, so listen to the record to get it right.
Intro/Verse: Am G6 Fmaj7 E7 F G Am e:-----------------0-----|----1--------0----|------|-------------------- ---| B:-----------------0-----|----1--------0----|------|-------------------- ---| G:----5------------0-----|----2--------1----|------|---0h2-----0h4-----5 ---|x2 D:-7--------7------2-----|----2--------0----|--x2--|---0h3-----0h5-----7 ---| A:----7------------2-----|----3--------2----|------|-----3-----0h5-----7 ---| E:-5---------------3-----|----1--------0----|------|-----1-------3-----5 ---|
Drums come in...
Verse 1: -------- Am G6 Fma7 E7 Am Oho, can't anybody see? You gotta walk to find me, G6 Fmaj7 E7 Never found our way, regardless, of what they say F G Am F How can it feel, this wrong? From this moment, G Am How can if feel, this wrong?
Verse 2: (same chords as previously) Chords have more echo here -------- Am G6 Fmaj7 E7 Am Stoned, in the morning light, I feel, no more G6 Fmaj7 E7 F G Can I say, frozen, to myself, I got nobody on my side, Am And surely that ain't right F G Am Surely that ain't right.
Verse 3: -------- Same as verse 1, except with strings..Also, 2nd Am is sussed, if you see what I mean...(play 2nd Am as Am->Asus4->G6)
Until:
F G Am F How can it feel, this wrong, from this moment G E7 How can it feel, this wrong?
Break: ------ Play intro (with a lot of bass A, G, F, E) up to: F G Am F How can it feel, this wrong, from this moment G E7 How can it feel, this wrong?
Play Verse 1 again (the same way as in intro). Ends on: Am "...this wrong."
Other ways of playing some chords: ----------------------------------
Fmaj7 Amsus4 Am G6 or e:--0---------------0-----3--0--| B:--1---------5-----1-----5--0--| The 1st G6 voicing is a bit crap, G:--2---------7-----2-----4--0--| but Fmaj7 and Am and 2nd G6 are easier D:--3---------7-----2-----x--0--| to play like this on an accoustic A:--3---------7-----0-----5--2--| and sound better.. E:--0---------5-----------3--3--|
