Always Ascending
Franz Ferdinand
[Intro] [Verse] Don’t be concerned It’s just the way that gravity works round here All slowly rising falling patiently Feel no Feel no fear Cirrus caress you Cumulus kiss you Raindrops of crystal Whisper we’ll miss you But go… Let go [Verse] (Keep playing A Palm muted) e|----------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------| A|--6-6-6-6--3-3-3-3----------------------| E|--------------------3-3-3-3--4-4-4-4-5--| e|-----------------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------| (Keep playing B|-----------------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------| this through G|-----------------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------| the Verse D|-----------------|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------| either tab A|-----------------|------------------|-----------------6-6-6-6--3-3-3-3----------------------| or chords E|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-6-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-6--|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-6-------------------3-3-3-3--4-4-4-4-5--| shown above) Always and always and always ascending The opening line leaves an uncertain ending Always and always and always ascending The chords seem to pause but ah… Never going to resolve Talk to me but ah...
