Your Lucky Day In Hell — Eels
From the album, «Beautiful Freak» (1997)
———————————————
*LP Version*
[Transcribed by TNT SHWE]
Notes:
Here’s a nice Halloween-ish song transcribed especially for
Halloween night. The song couldn’t come from a freakier band. The Eels
are definitley the experts when it comes to delivering cold haunting
melodies combined with eerie lyrics. This is one of my favourite tracks off
their fabulous album. This one would happily fit into a good horror movie
and couldn’t come at a better time, with the horror genre going retro!
Go ahead, I dare you to play this one alone!
To make the most out of the chords, play all the sections except
the Choruses with lots of added bass. Play the Choruses with light sweep
picking movements.
Recommended Chord Positions:
Am xO221O
C x32O1O
Dm xxO231
