Waking Up
Elastica

Riff used throughout song:

E-x----------------------------------------
B-x----------------------------------------
G-x----------------------------------------
D---9-9-12-12-7-7-9-9---9-9-14-14-7-7-9-9--
A---9-9-12-12-7-7-9-9---9-9-14-14-7-7-9-9--
E---7-7-10-10-5-5-7-7---7-7-12-12-5-5-7-7--

These notes are also individually picked from E up to D in the same
chord formation by another guitar (or, in their case, overdubbed). It
varies a little in some parts from the four main chords' pattern, but
it's the same four chords picked.

Rhythm speeds up when the vocals kick in. Guitar punctuates key words
in the lyric.

D--9-------------12---7----9---
A--9-------------12---7----9---
E--7-------------10---5----5---

Work very hard...

D--9-------------14---7----9---
A--9-------------14---7----9---
E--7-------------12---5----5---

I can't take...

Chorus uses main riff at top, till this part:

D--14-14-------------7-7-
A--14-14-------------7-7-
E--12-12-------------5-5-

Make a cup...

Little ditty riff played after chorus:

D--16--14--12/13/12-11--------------------
A-----------------------14--12--11/12/11-9
E-------------------------------------------

Here's another way of playing the main four chords:

Ex
G-------------------------------------------
B------7-7----------------9-9---------------
D--9-9-7-7-7-7-9-9---9-9-9-9-7-7-9-9------
A--9-9-5-5-7-7-9-9---9-9-7-7-7-7-9-9------
E--7-7-----5-5-7-7---7-7-----5-5-7-7-------

It's much easier on the fingers.

This song is my theme song...
