Somebody Got Murdered The Clash Album: Sandinista Lyrics c/o uwp
Chords: It sounds like there are two guitars and they mix up the fingering from lower to higher. Here are the two positions where they alternate.
E C#m A F#m B -4-0-----4----5-0----5-2---2------------------------ -5-0-----5----5-2----7-2---4------------------------ -4-1-----6----6-2----6-2---4------------------------ -6-2-----6----7-2------4---4----------------------- ---2-----4----7-0------4---2---------------------- ---0----------5--------2----------------------
Intro: The song starts with a muffled barred E keeping beat with the snare. Then, the other guitar comes in with:
repeat --7---5---4-----------5--4-----7--5--4------ --5-----------5-------5-----5-----------5--- --4-------------------4--------------------- -------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------- Then they get into heavy chords as follows: (played in the higher position sounds best)
E C#m A
E F#m A
Verses:
E A E Someone lights a cigarette
A E F#m While riding in a car
E A E Some ol' guy takes a swig
A E F#m And passes back the jar
B A E But where they were last night
A E F#m No-one can remember
C#m A Somebody got murdered
B E Goodbye, for keeps, forever
E C#m A Somebody got murdered
E F#m A Somebody's dead forever
And you're minding your own business Carrying spare change You wouldn't cosh a barber You're hungry all the same I been very tempted To grab it from the till I been very hungry But not enough to kill
Somebody got murdered His name cannot be found A small stain on the pavement They'll scrub it off the ground As the daily crown disperse No-one says that much Somebody got murdered And it' left me with a touch
Somebody got murdered Somebody's dead forever
/* Now play the intro riff above these words: */
Sounds like murder! Those shouts! Are they drunk down below?
It's late, and my watch stopped Some time ago Sounds like murder! Those screams! Are they drunk down below?
