Tabbed by oliverjakerr Trouble in Town (Song Length 4:39) From Everyday Life (2019) Tempo: ~95 | Key Signature: D minor | Tuning: Standard | Time Signature: 4/4 | Capo: No Capo Author Note: This song is a fantastic song it reminds me of the Rush of Blood to the Head Era with the buildup and release, really amazing. It is really powerful I feel it speaks a lot about screwed up legal systems and racism involved around the world. Once I have the time I'll tab the whole thing out however this is the simple version. Also, the is an optional chord in the bridge. It acts as a transitional chord. Sounds good but optional And imo the brige sounds the best when you triple pick the bottom 3 and 4 strings only for the Gm, and C7 Enjoy! : Dm xx0231 OR x57765 Bb 688766 OR x13331 C 35553 OR x32010 [Verse 1] Trouble in town Because they cut my brother down Because my sister can't wear her crown There's trouble, there's trouble in town Blood on the beat (Oh-oh) Oh my goodness, there's blood on the beat Law of the jungle or the law of the street There's blood on, there's blood on the beat And I get no shelter And I get no peace And I never get release [Verse 2] Trouble in town (Oh-oh) Because they hung my brother Brown Because their system just keep you down There's trouble, there's trouble in town And I get no shelter And I get no peace And I just get more police Eh, And I get no comfort And I get no name Everything is gettin' strained Best friends What's that?
