The Polyphonic Spree
"Soldier Girl"
The song follows the same chord sequence all the way through:
C Em Ab C F D7
Though just to confuse matters the first chord the bass player plays on
is the D7, so after 8 D's the play C 8 times and follow the sequence
So the intro is as follows
D7 C Em Ab
G—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
D—————————————————————————————————2—2—2—2—2—2—2—2—————————————————
A—5—5—5—5—5—5—5—5—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—————————————————————————————————
E—————————————————————————————————————————————————4—4—4—4—4—4—4—4—
C F D7
G—————————————————————————————————————————————————
D—————————————————————————————————————————————————
A—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—————————————————5—5—5—5—5—5—5—5—
E—————————————————1—1—1—1—1—1—1—1—————————————————
The rest of the song is the same minus the 8 D's at the start:
C Em Ab C
G—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
D—————————————————2—2—2—2—2—2—2—2—————————————————————————————————
A—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—————————————————————————————————3—3—3—3—3—3—3—3—
E—————————————————————————————————4—4—4—4—4—4—4—4—————————————————
F D7
G—————————————————————————————————
D—————————————————————————————————
A—————————————————5—5—5—5—5—5—5—5—
E—1—1—1—1—1—1—1—1—————————————————
play this for the rest of the song, put on your robe, and jump around
like a crazy person.
P.S when i saw the 'spree recently, drunk as i was, i kept sticking
my thumb up at the bassist and harpist and they both acknowledged me
with a smile and a wave. Amazing band, amazing songs. Linkin Park
would never do such a thing. Oh, and i was in the bogs when they played
this song, which is a shame.
The Polyphonic Spree is a self-described "choral symphonic rock" group from the Dallas, Texas area. The band generally consists of a 10-person choir, a pair of keyboardists, as well as a percussionist, drummer, bassist, guitarist, flautist, trumpeter, trombonist, violinist/violist, harpist, French horn player, a pedal steel player, theremin player, and an electronic effects person. Individual members and the number of musicians vary because of the flexibility necessary in travelling with such a large band. Tim DeLaughter is musical director and contributes lead vocals, as well as keyboards, guitar, and percussion.
