ORDINARY WORLD (Duran Duran)
Here is the easily recognizable guitar melody. It's done with an
acoustic through most of the song, but the last time it's electric.
Use a single finger on the high E string and slide it down the string
when changing frets.
E---12-12-12-12---11-11-11---9-9-9-7-7-----14-14-14-14---12-12-12---|
E---11-11-11-9-9---7-7-0-7-0-7-0-7-0----0-5-0-5-0-5-0-5-------------|
The verses are: C#m (446654) E (022100) B (224442)
C#m E B C#m
"Passion or coincidence/once prompted you to say/"Pride will tear
E B
us both apart..."
The bridge is: C#m (446654) G#m (466444) B (224442) E (022100)
C#m G#m B
"What is happening to me?/Crazy some say.../Where is my friend when
E E
I need you most?/Gone away..."
And the chorus: B (224442) F#m (244222) A (002220) E (022100)
B F#m A
"And I don't cry for yesterday,/there's an ordinary world,/somehow I
E B F#m A
have to find...And as I try to make my way/to the ordinary world/I will
E
learn to survive..."
Those chords also fit over that melody tabbed above. I do not have a
tabbing for the short acoustic break between verses 1 & 2. (Any
volunteers out there?)

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DURAN DURAN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
