I'm seconding the Because the Origami request... Also does anyone have any clues about the Problem with Saints?

Also, I'm fairly certain I'll Be Your Mirror is just G/C.

I've been fooling around with Origami, I may be completely off but...

A D are in there...


drums annoyed:
B D B

chorus:
ADBA

This was so much easier when I had a piano. Figuring out chords on uke feels wrong to me...

I can play the first verse of the Mouse and the Model.. and the ending solo part.. but the recording I have (from automaticjoy) makes it hard to try and figure out the rest of the song.. So if anyone could help with that I'd be really grateful.

So I figured out how to play Problem With Saints on ma keyboard.

I play it in this key, it's probably the same as everyone else's just in another key, nomsay?


Gm Bb Eb Cm - verse

"She says it clears your head when you come back from the dead" part is Cm D7 Gm Bb
"And to prove it she disected three young tourists" is Cm Gm and then a little melody that goes (these are only notes) D D D Eb D C Bb A G  and a grand G minor chord.

Eb Bb Gm Bb - chorus

Then you play the little jazzy improv thing after the second chorus and when it comes back I play a Cm Gm Bb Gm
"Ignore my English accent in her war" Cm Gm and a grand ol' D Eb E F (basically changing the keys by a semitone).
And then back to the chorus.

I really hope to god this wasn't super confusing.


And though this isn't a Dolls or AFP song, I also figured out Bad Wine and Lemon Cake. It's really, really easy. So if anyone would like to, or if it's already been posted, holla at cho brutha!



OH YEAH and I totally forgot. I figured out the intro to Nikola Tesla. C C Eb C Ab G Eb C C C Eb C Ab Bb Ab G (all notes). And I want to say the chords are C minor chords with the octave above, but it just doesn't sound right at all. And then I want to say, "Maybe it's a an Abm7 chord" but that doesn't sound right either. But it's kind of late right now and I shouldn't be having a jam session.

Edit: It's an open fifth. C-G-C. And then at the very end of the versus you'd play an Ab. Then the chorus begins with a C major and I've yet to figure the rest out.

Edit again: The verses are C-G-C and your left hand plays an F, then G, then Ab, then Bb. Not all together, seperately. The chorus I still can't figure out. The bridge "Edison's enemy..." is simply Ab and a C# chords, alternate between the two.

I would replace the (c)? with a Dm.  :) (err, provided I've not learned all my chords completely wrong which is likely, LOL)

Boyfriend In A Coma? I know on piano it's just notes, but for guitar/uke players, does the LH and RH combine to form chords/power chords? (Or what chords could you use that would fit the melody?)

Hey guys. I did a search but couldn't find My alcoholic friends so I decided to post the chords.

I doubt they're exactly correct, it's just how I play it on the guitar, works decently enough for playing it around campfire or something.  :)


Em  G          Em         G                  Em    G                  Em    C             G                  D
I'm counting back the number of the steps it took for me to get back on the wagon after weekend


...and that's basically the entire song (the very simplified version of it that I play anyways).  :)

Someone needs to figure out the chords to the Ukulele Anthem. I have only just heard it, just once so far, and I immediately knew I must learn to play it.

Ukulele Hunt is ON IT.

Unfortunately he seems a little unsure of the song but he has a history of feeling on the fence about AFP. Oh well, to each his own.
