Time Bomb

Time Bomb è una canzone che risente molto delle influenze degli Operation Ivy, il gruppo ska-punk in cui militavano il cantante e chitarrista Tim Armstrong ed il bassista Matt Freeman. Sebbene il gruppo non si sia mai interessato molto alle classifiche musicali, si segnala Time Bomb come la hit di maggior successo dei Rancid in tal senso, in quanto conquistò l’ottavo posto della US Modern Rock Chart. Venne estratto dall’album And Out Come The Wolves (1995).
Nella partitura proposta abbiamo anche trascritto l’assolo di organo, scritto da Vic Ruggiero degli Slackers, in forma di tablatura (per una più semplice formattazione).

VERSE:

       Bm                         E
If you wanna make a move then you better come in
              Bm                     E
It's just the ability to reason that wears so thin
Bm                       E
Living and dying and the stories that are true
Bm                      E
Secret to a good life's knowing when you're through

CHORUS:

A                 D                     E               D
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bomb
A                 D                     E               D
Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac, yeah, the boy's a time bomb

VERSE:
           Bm                          E
Well, he's back in the hole where they got him living like a rat
Bm                    E
But he's smarter than that, nine lives like a cat
 Bm                           E
Ten years old? they take him to the youth authority home
Bm                                E
First thing you learn: you got to make it in this world alone

[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes...)

VERSE:

Bm                               E
Now he's gotten out, he's gotten free, he's gotta go, got a car
Bm                      E
He's 21 years old, he's runnin' numbers from the bar
Bm                  E
His pager's beepin', he's gettin' deep in
    Bm                          E
Whatever he can move on in, you know that kid's a creepin' in

[CHORUS] (Black coat, white shoes...)

VERSE:

Bm                                    E
Tears come from the razor that's been tattooed below his eye
Bm                               E
His mother cries, she knows that he is strong enough to die
Bm                      E
He's rollin' in the Cadillac, it's midnight, sunroof is down
Bm                               E
Three shots ring out, the hero's dead, the new king is crowned

[CHORUS] (x2) (Black coat, white shoes...)

 ...Ooh...time bomb
