吉他小練習 - Green Day - 21 Guns

前陣子無意間又被人抖出以前學過吉他這件往事，其實當時還在豐原上班的時候，只有學一點點，之後沒空就沒學了，現在也老早就不會彈了... 不過最近有點小悶，就想說找個簡單的來練練看，也許可以回想起一點點，於是前幾天放假就玩了一下這首 Green Day 的 21 Guns
雖然彈得有點糟糕，但基於有圖有真相的原則，還是錄了一段影片作為紀念：

我個人還滿喜歡這首歌的，歌詞也很有意思，我尤其喜歡第一句：
"Do you know what's worth fighting for
When it's not worth dying for?"
至於這首歌的歌詞，原作者想表達的到底是什麼，則是很多人有截然不同的解讀方式。

我練習的譜從這裡來的 (只有 solo 部份)：

他這個彈法滿順手的，不過和原曲並不一樣，我又簡化了一點點跟他略有不同。參照了 youtube 上找得到的現場演唱影片，其實 solo 那段的後面應該是使用低把位才對，因為偷懶所以被我省略了...

這是網路上找到的完整歌詞
Do you know what's worth fighting for
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?
Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins...

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I

When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul
Your faith walks on broken glass
And the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I

Did you try to live on your own
When you burned down the house and home?
Did you stand too close to the fire?
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone

When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms
Give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky
You and I

在壓力繁重偶爾煩悶的生活中，有時候真的覺得，有這些興趣可以調劑，實在是很不錯呢！
