Heatmiser - Blue Highway

Tabbed by Tony G (yeah@hehe.com)
* Normal tuning
* The lyrics may not be right, I couldn't find them so I made
them up from listening to the song, for example I don't think
'And it's starting to get fun' is correct, but to me it's
intelligable. The only other thing it sounds like is 'Can
you strum me a thumb' but that makes no sense
[Chords Used]
* You can use one or the other, but I've provided both because
one might be easier to play at some point due to transition
from one chord to another
* Personally, I mostly use the ones on the left
E A D G B E E A D G B E
A 5 7 7 6 5 5 or 0 0 2 2 2 0
B 7 9 9 8 7 7 or 2 2 4 4 4 2
C 3 3 5 5 5 3 or 8 10 10 9 8 8
F 8 8 10 10 10 8 or 1 3 3 2 1 1
E 7 7 9 9 9 7 or 0 2 2 1 0 0
D 5 5 7 7 7 5 or 0 0 0 2 3 2
Bb 1 1 3 3 3 1 or 1 1 3 3 3 1
[Riff 1]
* Bar the fifth fret with your index finger and reach the
other notes with your other fingers to make your life
easier

you to bar the fifth anyway so no need for your fingers
to race around the guitar

[Intro]
*Riff 1*
[Verse 1]
*Riff 2* D A *Riff 2* D A
Wide awake at four in the morning killing time on the blue highway
*Riff 2* D A *Riff 2* D A
Drag down the day like a body, buried the night under where I'd layed
[Chorus 1]
C D E
On all the sides, the frost bites, a shadow creeping up on me
A B C F
Oh yeah it's like a cold in my head, it's your favourite plan
E A
And you've touched everyone
B C F
Oh yeah it's like the back of your hand on the tip of my tongue
E
And it's starting to get fun
*Play Riff 1 twice
[Verse 2]
*Riff 1* D A *Riff 1* D A
Kids say I didn't see it coming, busy just plucking your burrs
*Riff 1* D A *Riff 1* D A
I take long walks because I'm numbing, only want to speak in code
[Chorus 1]
C D E
On all the sides, the frost bites, a shadow creeping up on me
A B C F
Oh yeah it's like a cold in my head, it's your favourite plan
E A
And you've touched everyone
B C F
Oh yeah it's like the back of your hand on the tip of my tongue
E
And it's starting to get fun
[Bridge 1]
Bb F G D Bb F G A
Cut me up like jigsaw, whole affection cracked apart
Bb F G D A
Like the lines at my end of a map of a broken heart
[Solo]
* Bar the seventh fret on the solo notes while plucking
as it's easier than moving your fingers all over the
place
