Your rating:
Artist: White Stripes
Title: Seven Nation Army
Album: Elephant


***STANDARD TUNING***

I also posted the previous tab but i thought many of you don't
want to change tunings...plus this sounds good enough but Jack
actually plays it in open 'A' tuning

HE USES A PEDAL TO MAKE THE INTRO SOUND AN OCTAVE LOWER

Lyrics:

Verse 1

I'm gonna fight 'em off
A seven nation army couldn't hold me back
They're gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And I'm talking to myself at night
Because I can't forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone

Verse 2

Don't want to hear about it
Every single one's got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
I'm gonna serve it to you
And that ain't what you want to hear,
But that's what I'll do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home

Verse 3

I'm going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
I'm gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding, and I'm bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me
And I will think no more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home

OOPS i messed up when changing from open A tuning to standard......most of it is correct except on the solo on the G string.....just add 2 to each number so it looks like this:

-----------------------------|----------------------------------------|
-----------------------------|----------------------------------------|
--9---9----9---12-\-11--11-\---|-----9-----12--14--12--12-/-14--12--11-\-|
-----------------------------|----------------------------------------|
-----------------------------|----------------------------------------|
-----------------------------|----------------------------------------|

------------------------------------------|----------------------------
------------------------------------------|----------------------------
---9---9---9---9-----12---9--/-12-\-11--\--|-/9----12--14--12--12-/-14--
------------------------------------------|----------------------------
------------------------------------------|----------------------------
------------------------------------------|----------------------------

---------|-/-12--12--12-/-15--12--12-/-15-\-14--X|-/-12--12-/-15--17---
---------|---------------------------------------|---------------------
-12--11-\-|---------------------------------------|---------------------
---------|---------------------------------------|---------------------
---------|---------------------------------------|---------------------
---------|---------------------------------------|---------------------

then the rest is right....guess i shoulda checked my work :smiley:
