'Lost Cause' by Beck - Guitar Tutorial
Gtp chords: Lost Cause
Song lyrics:
Normally for two guitars, but it's perfectly playable on one. There's a lot of improvisation in this song, but these are the basics: Intro & verses: Fmaj7 C Em7 e[-------------0-------------------------] B[----------1---------------1------------] G[--------2---------------0------0---0---] (2x) D[------3-----------3---2----------0-----] A[----------------2---3--------2---------] E[----1----------------------------------] Play something like this at the end of each sentence: Fmaj7 C Em7 Am E7 e[-------------0----------------------------------0-----------0---] B[----------1---------------1------------------1-----------3------] G[--------2---------------0------0---0-------2-----------1--------] D[------3-----------3---2----------0-------2-----------2----------] A[----------------2---3--------2--------0-------------------------] E[----1----------------------------------------------0------------] Chorus: a lot of variations on the Fmaj7 and G chords - here are two examples: Fmaj7 G Fmaj7 G e[------------------------------------] e[--------------------------------] B[---------1----------------3---------] B[---------1------------3-----0---] G[-------2-----2---2------0-----0-----] G[-------2---2--------0---0-2-----] D[-----3---------3------0-----0---0---] D[-----3------------0-------------] A[------------------------------------] A[--------------------------------] E[---1----------------3---------------] E[---1------------3---------------] End of the first chorus: Fmaj7 G C e[--------------------------------------1-0------] B[---------1-----------(3)-------1-----------1---] G[-------2---2--------0--------0-------------0---] D[-----3------------0--------2---------------2---] A[-----------------------------------------------] E[---1------------3------------------------------] ---> 2nd verse ---> 2nd chorus, which ends like this: Fmaj7 G C A7 e[------------0-----------------------------3-0--] B[---------1------------3--------1--------2-2----] G[-------2------------0--------0--------2---2----] D[-----3------------0--------2-------------------] A[------------------------------------0----------] E[---1------------3------------------------------] Then there's an interlude (I’m tired of fighting) – but it just uses the same chords as the chorus. It ends like this: Fmaj7 G C e[------------0--------------------1-0-------0------0----] B[---------1------------3------3-1-----3-2h3---1---3--1--] G[-------2------------0----------------------------------] D[-----3------------0--------2---------------------------] A[-------------------------3-----------------------------] E[---1------------3--------------------------------------] Bridge: A F C Cadd9 e[-----------0------------0-------------0--------0-------] B[--------2------------1-------------1-------------3-----] G[------2------------2-------------0-----------0---------] D[----2------------3-------------2-----------2-----------] A[--0--------------------------3-----------3-------------] E[---------------1---------------------------------------] A F C e[-----------0------------0------------0------------------] B[--------2------------1-------------1------1-------------] G[------2------------2-------------0---------------0------] D[----2------------3-------------2---------------------0--] A[--0--------------------------3----------3----3-2---2----] E[---------------1----------------------------------------] Then A/F/C again, and end with: F F C e[-----------0------------0------------0--------0---------] B[--------1------------1-------------1------------1-------] G[------2------------2-------------0----------0-----------] D[----3------------3-------------2----------2-------------] A[-----------------------------3----------3---------------] E[--1------------1----------------------------------------] Then the 3rd chorus (about the same as the 2nd) and again the interlude with the chorus chords. It ends like this: Fmaj7 G C e[---------0----------------------------------------------------] B[------------1---------3--------1--3h5--1---[---Random---]--1--] G[-------2------------0--------0-------------[--fingering-]--0--] D[-----3------------0--------2---------------[----on-C----]--2--] A[-------------------------3---------------------------------3--] E[---1------------3---------------------------------------------]
