Fading West - Switchfoot - The Edge of The Earth EP Tabbed by:Davey Fuller -mail: Tuning: standard - EADGBE This is one of my favourite songs of all time and I believe it's one of Switchfoot's greatest songs to date. I thought I'd set out a little tab for some acoustic bits that I've heard here and there. Please comment any corrections! :) Chord Key: (You can use any variety of these chords at any point in the song, whatever sounds best to you. I like the open up on seventh, it sounds correct to me in the chorus!) - 799800 // x24400 (Jon plays the x24400 in the film scene) - 577600 // x02200 - 022100 // x79900 // x222000 - 111313121111 // x68886 (these are eleven's thirteen's and twelve!!) - 466400 // x66400 - 244322 BITS TO NOTE FOR AN ADDED GUITAR IF YOU'RE RECORDING riff (heard as string ensemble on record) This is the closest I can get to the bit Drew plays in the film scene when they're jamming in Bali. Just mess around sliding up and down on the string between 7,9,11,13 and 14, you'll hear it.) Little riff at the end of each line of the chorus (synth/keys on record) Here are the chords. The sun goes down for the summer Mirror sky for the water And I am fading westward too Fading west with you Life won't sing like I want it The traffic post-modern sonnet The traffic hums a dirty tune Fading west with you I'm heading back to the west coast where I'm from I'm heading back to the left coast where I belong California's calling me back home Fading west with you Little riff at the end of each line of the chorus (synth/keys on record) Keep my mind over matter Cos' I've seen my hopes shatter They told me lies I thought were true Fading west with you Pre-Chorus. The sun goes down We were already gone I'm heading back to the west coast where I'm from I'm heading back to the left coast where I belong California's calling me back home I'm fading west with you! Bridge. When you know I'm alone Feel like I'm caving in When you leave me alone I start to wonder Where have I been, where have I been? I'm heading back to the west coast where I'm from I'm heading back to the left coast where I belong California's calling me back home (California waters bit stays on - - progression I believe) Thanks!
