Travis - Good Day To Die
From "Good Feeling", Written by Fran Healy & co.
No capo (*gasp*).
Intro: Various noise, then D7 into...
First verse:
G D Em B
where is your mother, where is your father,
G D Em B
two little children, locked in a cupboard.
G D Em B
Into the wide world, high on the high wire,
G D Em D7 C, D7
What would you give to fly away, away, away, away, awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay?
Same chord progression for the second verse:
Girl with the flower, boy with the hammer,
Lost in a forest, on another planet.
Find me the exit, find me the way home,
Find all the love they took away, away, away, away, away.
Chorus (coming off of D7):
Em D
Cos your head, is a brick wall,
C D
And your heart, is a football
Em D
And your eyes, broken windows,
C D C
when you cry, it's a good day to die.
Solo (well-tabbed on other GDTD tabs), the chords are similar to the verse,
with a bit of a change:
By measure:
G, D, Em, B
G, D, Em, Em
G, D, Em, B
G, D, Em, Em
Then, D7 back into the chorus chords.
Once through the chorus normally, but instead of playing the last C transcribed above
go right back into the Em to begin the next time through the chorus. Then...
Em D
Cos your head, is a brick wall,
C D
And your heart, is a football
Em D
And your eyes (?), it's a good day...
Am, Em, Cadd9
Today...
Am, Em, Cadd9
Today...
Am, Em, Cadd9
Today.......today......today.....
The outro seems to be messing back and forth with a C and a Cadd9.
Enjoy! Hope this works better than the others.

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 TRAVIS 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.
