Let It Happen

Tame Impala - Let It Happen 


INTRO 

A  F#m G#sus4    x4 


verse 1 0:27 
A             F#m                G#sus4      
 It's always around me, all this noise but 
A              F#m       G#sus4 
 Not nearly as loud as a voice singing 
A              F#m          G#sus4 
 Let it happen, let it happen (It's gonna feel so good) 
A                   F#m          G#sus4      
 Just let it happen, let it happen 



D#m       B  
 All this running around 
C#         F# 
 Trying to cover my shadow 
D#m       B 
 An ocean growing inside 
C#           F# 
 Now all the others seem shallow 
D#m       B 
 All this running around 
C#       F# 
 Bearing down on my shoulders 
D#m    B 
 I can hear an alarm 
C#       C#sus4 
 Must be morning 


POST-Chorus 1:27 

A  F#m G#sus4    x4 


verse 2 1:44 
A                     F#m                 G#sus4 
 I heard about a whirlwind that's coming around 
A                     F#m            G#sus4 
 It's gonna carry off all that isn't bound, and 
A                F#m             G#sus4 
 When it happens, when it happens (I'll be holding on) 
A                 F#m           
 So let it happen, let it happen 



D#m       B 
 All this running around 
C#       F# 
 I can't fight it much longer 
D#m          B 
 Something's trying to get out 
C#        F# 
 And it's never been closer 
D#m    B 
 If my ticker fails 
C#       F# 
 Make up some other story 
D#m       B 
 But if I never come back 
C#       F# 
 Tell my mother I'm sorry 


SOLO (this continues until around 4:04, where the synth comes in) 



*: this note is the first of each subsequent sentence, so it replaces the first 10 played on the B-string 
   and sometimes he plays a 7 here 


SYNTH INTERMEZZO  4:04

BACK TO FIRST PART 5:06  

A  F#m G#sus4    x4 


verse 3 5:29 
A                 F#m 
 And it means, we move on ice giving 
 G#sus4 
Trying to get dreaming 

 A 
Trying to pose living 
    F#m                         G#sus4 
You knew I'm not thinking that I would let you in 

A 
Any other silver 
     F#m 
And I would just do it 
 G#sus4 
Get the meshed thinking 

 A 
Get the meshed dreaming 
 F#m 
Why would I do it 
 G#sus4 
Anyone'd think that  

 A                    F#m 
I could not do it, we move on ice giving 
 G#sus4 
Trying to get dreaming 

A 
Trying to pose living 
    F#m                         G#sus4 
You knew I'm not thinking that I would let you in 

A 
Any other silver 
     F#m 
And I would just do it 
 G#sus4 
Get the meshed thinking 

 A 
Get the meshed dreaming 
 F#m 
Why would I do it 
 G#sus4 
Anyone'd think that

Anyone'd think that  



A             F#m 
Maybe, I was ready 
      G#sus4 
All along 

   A             F#m 
Oh maybe, I was ready 
      Emaj7 
All along
