Chords for JONATHAN DAVIS - Through The Black Labyrinth // BASIC NEEDS (Episode 1)

Lyrically, it's about all the things that I need just basically to survive.
[F] Just having that hope of having someone there to love me or whatever it may [Dbm] be that thing.
It could be love, it could be family, [Ebm] whatever it is.
[Eb] Those are my basic [Db] needs that I need in my heart to really [Gb] just survive.
[Ebm] And I guess it's kind of a [F] love song of sorts if [Bb] I was to write one.
_ [Bbm] _ I don't feel [Bb] _ like a_
I don't [Gb] need _ it_
Let's start in [Ab] my place_
This record is something that [Db] I needed to finish [Ab] when I started.
I knew someday it would see [Bbm] its light.
_ And finally that time has come.
Queen [D] of Damn was the very first time I really did do anything solo.
Once those were done, that just _ lit a fire in my ass.
I had to write those songs on the road.
[N] So that started me down the road of just, you know, I had to keep writing.
Once the movie was over, it didn't stop.
I just kept writing songs and writing songs every night after.
Corner shows, I'd go on the bus and start writing stuff.
So that's when I started.
We always would document everything back [Bb] then.
I wanted people to be able to see it.
I didn't know what it was going to be used for, but we [Ab] did it.
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I mean, everyone loves that song.
I don't get it, but it's a very epic song.
I wanted to mix different [Eb] styles of music together when I was doing that.
We'll just talk about like in the middle part.
[D] Aleut is going through there, Japanese [Eb] mixed with tablas and Indian.
Just [B] different styles of music all mesh together like when you're mixing, DJing.
I wanted to mix the two. _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[Abm] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ I gave Shankar a chance to go off and write and do all kinds of crazy stuff violin-wide. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
And then it bounces back to Ray to be able to do kind of a drum solo thing.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[G] _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ [B] I was not mentally thinking, trying to go, this is going to be a single.
So this song is like five or six minutes long.
It's epic.
I love the world music vibe.
I mean, I love all the instruments.
I love Indian music because it's some alien [Cm] shit, man.
_ _ Call [D] to the aliens.
It's an alien disc.
[Cm] _ _ _
You hear them?
Check _ it out.
_ _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _
There's a whole step in between each half step, which is a half step down in our music.
There's a semitone in between in Indian music.
So there's like way more notes.
They bend stuff that's more minor.
I've always was into that.
And just like _ _ people, they dedicate their lives to playing tablas.
They go to these ragas that are like _ 10 minutes long.
How they view music and how it's played, the way they put notes together and bend notes.
I just am into that.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I don't even remember writing it.
It was so long ago.
It just kind of came [Ab] _ about. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bbm] I love the music. _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _
It's definitely got that dark world music, [Gb] gothic vibe, but that's just for me.
What I was inspired by.
I love the bands like _ Ba'al, I love Peter Murphy, I love [Bb] Dead Can Dance.
I love all these different kinds of bands.
When I was growing up, that's what comes out of me.

[Ab] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I have written happy pop tunes.
I can do it, but _ this is what the vibe I was going for.
And this is what came out.
_ And I'm not going to argue with my subconscious, obviously, is what's right.
So this is how it is.
I love [Bb] the vibe of it.
I _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] _ worked _ _ _ _ _
[Db] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ really hard on it.
[F]
I had to wait a long time and be [Db] patient.
It's something very near and dear to my heart.
_ I'm very happy how it came out.
I just sit there [A] and smile.
I love it.
I'm very proud of it.
