Version 1.0
Tuning: Standard
This here is the tab for Fluorescent Adolescent (the live
by Arctic Monkeys. The main differences between the regular version and this version are
one is played down in a
key (down 1 step) and part of the song 'Only You Know' by Dion is added into the middle,
is also a tempo change which you should listen out for.
As always, you should work out timing and strumming for yourself as you can't
tell someone how to do that in a tab. Any problems or questions, just shoot me an email
I'll
back to you ASAP.
Another note; the A chord in brackets you see crop up occasionally is a quick chord
in the middle if you watch the video and listen to the song you can tell how to play it.
Guitar 1 (Alex Turner)
Intro x2
D Bm (A) Em A
Verse 1
D
You used to get it in your fishnets,
Now you only get it in your night dress,
Discarded all the naughty nights for niceness,
Landed in a very common crisis,
D
Everything's in order in a black-hole,
Bm
Nothing seems as pretty as the past though,
(A) Em
That Bloody Mary's lacking in Tabasco,
A
Remember when you used to be a rascal?
Chorus
Em
Oh the boy's a slag,
A
The best you ever had,
Em
The best you ever had,
A Em
Is just a memory and those dreams,
A
Weren't as daft as they seemed,
Em
Not as daft as they seemed,
G
My love when you dreamed them up...
Verse 2
D
Flicking through a little book of sex tips,
Bm
Remember when the boys were all electric?
(A) Em
Now when she's told she's gonna get it,
A
I'm guessing that she'd rather just forget it,
D
Clinging to not getting sentimental,
Bm
Said she wasn't going but she went still,
(A) Em
Likes her gentlemen not to be gentle,
Was it a Mecca dauber or a betting pencil?
Chorus
Em
Oh the boy's a slag,
A
The best you ever had,
Em
The best you ever had,
A Em
Is just a memory and those dreams,
A
Weren't as daft as they seemed,
Em
Not as daft as they seemed,
A
My love when you dream them up....

Where did you go? Woah.
D Bm Em A
Only you know
D Bm Em A
I wanna see something that used to be in your eyes again,
D Bm Em A
I'm waitin' to see it, you know it's only a question of when,
D F# G
And I know how much I'm missin' heaven,
D
You know that it's missin'
Em
Only you know where you have been to,
D Em
Only you know what you have been through,
D Em
But there's better things you're gonna get into,
D
And I wanna be there too....
