Junkies on a High chords & tabs

TUNING: E (eBGDAE) How to read these chord schemes?
My mama said to me, "you're gonna have your enemies
Don't beg, don't follow"
I've heard it all before, I smashed my fingers in the door
My downward spiral, oh yeah

Rock 'n' roll tragedy, I think the next one could be me
Heaven's my rival
I sing in revelry, I got my own conspiracies
What hides in shadows? Oh yeah

Junkies on a high
Get back, lay down, go low
Subdivision smile
Drink it in, dumb it down, suck it up
As we watch the world burn
As we watch the world burn

I'm not a soldier, this ain't no new world order
My path don't follow
My name is nobody, my pride is my pornography
Kool-Aid's my motto, "Oh yeah!"

Junkies on a high
Get back, lay down, go low
Subdivision smile
Drink it in, dumb it down, suck it up
As we watch the world burn (Junkies on a high)
As we watch the world burn (Junkies on a high)
Oh yeah, burn (Junkies on a high)
As we watch the world burn (Junkies on a high)
Oh yeah

Father Of All Motherfuckers
Father of All…
Fire, Ready, Aim
Oh Yeah!
Meet Me on the Roof
I Was a Teenage Teenager
Stab You in the Heart

Junkies on a High

How to read these chord schemes

1 - chord name, 2 - chord designation, 3 - chord scheme

Chord name

There is the name of a chord before the symbols. If it's "*" added to a name, it means that this chord is played in different positions during the song.

Chord designation

There are 6 symbols in a designation, read it from left to right. The first symbol defines the thickest string (6th string), the second symbol defines 5th string and so on.

"0" means open string

"x" means this string isnt played

"Number" means number of a fret.

Example:

x02220

6th string isnt played
5th string is open
4th string is played on 2nd fret
3rd string is played on 2nd fret
2nd string is played on 2nd fret
1st string is open

Chord scheme

Imagine that you are looking at the fret while playing guitar - the closest string to your eyes is the 6th, the thickest string. There are 6 horizontal lines defines strings, the upper one is the thinnest string (1st string).
And there are 4 lines defined frets - no exact frets numbers defined.
In some schemes there is a thick line on the left - it defines the nut.

  • "0" means open string
  • "x" means this string isnt played
  • Fat dots mean fingers positions

Example:

G5 355xxx
