Nothing Good

the song is in D major . i got it straight from the 1997 record ( other songs ) . it’s , like sxxsmith songs , surprisingly plain in its chord progression , but the beauty lies in the and its simplicity . D A G D - - repeat a couple of times . lick on D , with D - D4 - D4 that bring you the high note . D A G D he sees it coming from a mile away D A G D he knows all the rules by heart and so the game is played Em F#m G he’s trading love for this sordid night of bliss D A G D though nothing good , nothing good could ever come from this ( repeat last line ) same for second stanza ( but don’t repeat the last line , instead go into the Bridge ) : you’ve seen how people rise in times of need forget all their pettiness , forget all their greed but he can’t rise above this warm and reckless kiss though nothing good , nothing good could ever come from this Bridge : change from the last D to A G : G D , D4 , D , D4 , D from this only sorrow Em G from this no future , only tomorrows ( now , again , same as first stanza ) and when the morning comes tumbling down no trace of the night before , it’s still the same old town but deep inside now hides a stranger in his midst and nothing good , nothing good could ever come from this nothing good , nothing good could ever come from this you can play this along to the record . standard tuning , no capo , no thrills . experiment the strumming pattern . i like the stanzas with down strokes on the main beats ( 1 , 2 , 3 4 ) , and the Chorus with a more varied 1 1/2 , 2 1/2 etc . . . variation ) . good luck! it’s a beautiful song . steffiroo07 #a . t . # yahoo . ca vancouver , 9 oct . 2010
