Vitamin R (Leading Us Along)

Words & Music:

Peter Loeffler, Samuel Loeffler & Joseph Loeffler (Chevelle)

 

This is transcribed in the November 2004 issue of Guitar One and discussed by the songwriter (how to properly play it) in Guitar World.

 

Drop D tuning [down 1.5 steps to B F# B E G# C#]

 

VERSE:  (chords are Dm  Dsus4 [2x]  Dm  Dsus2  Bb5  Bb5(#11) [2x])

Some will learn, many do. Cover up or spread it out.

Turn around, had enough, pick and choose or pass it on.

Buying in, heading for something no-one has suffered.

And it's bad enough, I want the fear, need the fear

'Cause he's alone (the fear has become)

He's alone (the fear has become)

 

CHORUS:  (chords are:  Bb5   C5  D5  G5   F5   Dsus2   D5   Dsus2  D5)

Well, if they're making it, and you're pushing it,

And you're leading us along.

The hassle of all the screaming fits,

That panic makes remorse.

 

After all, what's the point?  'Cause levitation is possible.

If you're a fly; achieved & gone; there's time for bliss & so much more.

It's difficult, create a world; a special place of my design.

To never show, or never share, just use the key

'Cause he's alone (the fear has become)

He's alone (the fear has become)

 

CHORUS:

 

BRIDGE:  (chords are:  F5  D5  G5   D5 [2x]  Bb5  D5  G5  D5  [2x])

Over and over I slave.

Became over and over a slave.

Became over and over a slave.

Became over and over a slave.

 

CHORUS:  [2x]
