STRUMMING:
There are multiple layers, but with a single guitar you can do this:
Pick the base and second string of the power chord:
E.g. G5: 3-x-x-x-x-x and x-5-x-x-x-x alternating in 1/8 notes
This sounds reasonably close to what is played in the record.
LYRICS:
I could not find the lyrics anywhere online unfortunately therefore I'm
trying my best...
I hope it is not too much of a mess :/
[Intro]
G5 E5 C5 D5 E5* D5 C5 B5 (C5) B5
[Verse]
G5 E5 C5 D5
Grew up in a cage, grew up in a bubble
E5* D5 C5 B5
Reading the scriptures, reading the Bible, emotionally crippled
G5 E5 C5 D5
And I think the times I have felt most comfortable are the times I now know
E5*
I was lied to
D5 C5 B5
Going to church, wearing a suit
G5 E5 C5 D5
I grew up scared, grew up fucking shaking
E5* D5 C5 B5
Grew up on my knees, grew up praying
G5 E5 C5 D5
Now, I think most of the time that I spent worrying is about other people
E5*
and not myself
D5 C5 B5
Because I am worthless and I don’t deserve my own attention
