- Song: Hello
- Artist: Oasis
- Album: (What's the Story) Morning Glory
- Transcribed by: Jim Ferraiolo (jmferraiolo@hcacad.holycross.edu)
-
- Hi all. This is my third song that I have transcribed off this great album.
- It's one of my favorites, and it's a great opening track to what's probably
- the CD of the year, in my opinion (still waiting on the new Smashing
- Pumpkins double album though!). I hope you enjoy it, and if you have any
- comments/corrections you'd like to make, please feel free to send me a
- bit of mail. At this rate I should have an entire album transcription done
- pretty soon!

- Repeating riff in the verses
-
- Am C
- e---------------------------
- b--1---1---1------1--1------
- g--2---2---2------0--0------ (This riff repeats 3 times, on the fourth)
- D--2---2---2------2--2------ time, after the C chord, add:
- A--0---0---0--0---3--3------
- E--------------------------- E------0--3---0--3---------
-
- Just repeat this during the verses. I think it's pretty close, you might
- want to try C powerchords, or something.
-
- [Verse with main repeating riff]
-
- I don't feel as if I know you, you take up all my time
- The days are long and the nights will throw you away coz the sun don't shine
- Nobody ever mentions the weather can make or break your day
- Nobody ever seems to remember life is a game we play
-
- [Prechorus]
-
- E5 Am F G5
- We live in the shadows and we had the chance and threw it away
-
- [Chorus]
-
- Please note that the B and A are played as single notes, NOT chords. If
- you play them as chords, it sounds like crap, so make sure you play the
- C chord and then slide up to B and then pluck the open A string.
-
- C B A
- And it's never gonna be the same
- F G
- Coz the years are falling by like the rain
- C B A
- And it's never gonna be the same
- F5 G5
- Till the life I knew comes to my house and says
-
- (riff)
- Hello
-
- [Verse 2, same riff over it]
-
- There ain't no sense in feeling lonely, they got no faith in you
- But I got a feeling you still owe me, so wipe the shit from your shoes
- Nobody ever mentions the weather can make or break your day
- Nobody ever seems to remember life is a game we play
-
- [Prechorus + Chorus are the same as above, words and chords]
-
- F5 G5
- Hello! Hello!
-
- Am
- Said it's good to be back, it's good to be back
-
- (This repeats a few times and the song ends on the Am)
-
- If you feel like a solo break at any point during the song, A minor
- pentatonic is a fine choice, and if you've got a wah-wah pedal, let it
- shine. I saw Oasis play live, and all Noel uses is a wah and a Boss
- digital delay.
