The Prize
Semisonic
Em
(início)
Intro: Strumming on D (6 bars or so)-see note below
Verse1: D
Night of a thousand verses
D Am
One thousand friends said have you heard
G D
What we expected
D
We are all working late and
D Am
Waiting to win a prize that we dont deserve
G D
And live to collect it
Chorus: F#m G
Cant you see Im weary
Em C D
Maybe this news can wait
Verse2:
Night of a thousand verses
One thousand strivers strain to hear
The voice thats left us
Magazines still have to sell us
Twelve master geniuses a year
Its all so shameless
Chorus: Repeat 2x, second time "Worried" not "Weary"
Bridge: B C G
Maybe there was a message in it
Em
(I dont know where you hid it)
B C G
Maybe there was a [P stamp] with it
Em
(I dont know where to fit it)
B C G
Tell me what kind of prize can you get
Em
(When you dont want to win it)
Then back to D for a few bars.
Then once through verse and chorus, with no words, and
with distorted guitar on top.
Then back to bridge exactly as above
Then chorus 2x.
When strumming on D, there is a little riff that is
D/E/F#/F#/G/F# (notes, not chords). If you're playing
D in the second fret, you can try to pick it while
holding the chord, like this:Try to keep the G and B strings from getting muted so the chord continues to sound. You may find easier places to play up the neck if you're on an electric.
