Chords for The Mysterines on Nirvana, Arcade Fire and first tattoos | Firsts

[Eb] I wasn't allowed to give [Ebm] the stick and poke, I wasn't trusted.
[Abm] Yeah, I've got a few random [Eb] ones now.
That's why I wear [Ab] long sleeves all the time.
[Ebm] Just like sleeve.
[Eb] _ _ _
_ _ I wear [Ab] the Mr.
Deans and these are our firsts for [Cm] Enemy.
_ _ _ [Ebm] We were actually speaking about this on the [Eb] train.
I think we agreed.
Yeah, the first artist I fell in love with was Nirvana, I think.
It was like the first band that I felt like I found myself.
I felt like they were like my band.
When you first get into music and people are always showing you stuff and that.
But Nirvana, I think was the first band that I kind of found off my own back.
I was instantly obsessed with them.
Especially Dave Grohl's drumming and stuff.
I think it really connected with me and I'm still trying to play like him now.
But yeah, probably Nirvana.
I agree.
[Em] _ _ [Gbm] _ _ [Em]
My mum and dad had a lot of CDs in the house when I was growing up and stuff.
Even though I didn't buy it, it's not the first CD I bought.
I guess the first CD I remember like holding and going back to quite a lot was the first Strokes record.
My mum's probably, again, probably similar thing.
I don't really remember buying a CD.
But I remember me dad getting funeral by Arche Fire.
I think it must have been for his [Abm] birthday or for Christmas or something.
Me dad's from Glasgow and we were driving to Glasgow and he just had it on repeat the whole time.
I was only dead young.
So I can't remember how old I must have been.
But I remember when I was a bit older and I got into music a bit more and listening to it.
I could like remember all the songs just because I'd hear them in the car so often with me dad.
You sort of remember the track list of like albums don't you?
Yeah. _
_ _ _ [Ebm] First tattoo that I [Abm] got was when I was 18.
And it's on the back of my arm [Ebm] and it says 50 foot Queenie.
It's a PJ Harvey song.
[Abm] So yeah, I just wrote it out on a piece of paper and told [Ebm] the guy to do it.
And he did.
[Abm] Mine was, I've got John Bonham's logo on my arm.
[B] That was probably, well it was the first tattoo I got.
I've given Paul some tattoos though actually.
Yeah, I've got a moon on me.
Well, all these questions where we always just like, oh we were pissed once.
We _ bought like a stick and poke tattoo thing.
And it literally got to the moon on me behind.
Now I've got Death to the Pixies on the top of my arm.
I didn't, I wasn't allowed to give the stick and poke.
I wasn't trusted.
Yeah, I've got a few random [Abm] ones now.
That's why I wear long sleeves all the [Bbm] time.
Just like sleeves.
_ _ _ _ _ _ First job I ever had, I worked in a wedding dress shop where I grew up.
It was pretty interesting.
Characters would come [Fm] in there.
Just where it was situated in the town and stuff.
Yeah, I think I was about 14.
Mine was McDonald's.
Yeah, I was literally there for like two weeks.
And I remember them giving me like my shifts.
I was going to [Gb] Glastonbury and they were like, oh you're working.
I was like, I'm not, I'm going to Glastonbury.
It was like, [Ab] so I just never went back.
So I worked for like, worked at McDonald's for like two weeks.
[N] And then left because I wanted to go to Glastonbury instead. _ _ _ _ _
I used to go to the cabin a lot with my dad.
I think that was like the first gig experience I had.
The first ticketed thing was Paul McCartney, I think.
It was a surprise.
I went to the toilet and I came back and there was Paul McCartney ticket on the table.
Oh, that's pretty sweet.
Nice, don't you?
Yeah.
Yeah.
[A] _ [Gm] _ [G] _ _ We were talking about this before, was that actually?
I was saying that mine was at a school, Battle of the Bands thing.
I was saying to Leah that in my head, it's like, it was like, you know,
like the end of School of [C] Rock where there's like thousands of people.
It definitely wasn't like that.
But in my head, that's what it was like.
[Gm] In reality, there's probably like_
Did you do the stage dive?
No, no.
No.
Should [F] have done.
_ [Am] _ _ [Dm] I [Am] don't think I've ever actually caught one of our songs on the radio.
It's always like family members, like sending you like [G] Facebook messages [F] going,
[N] oh, we've just heard it in the car.
We heard [Am] it the other day when we were in the van.
We were in the van and we were driving back from [Em] London.
So we [Dm] heard it then.
That was Clara Ampo played Dangerous.
So we were all together for that one.
_ I [F] _
think the first thing we're going to do after Reeling is released is go and get a pint.
_ _ _ Yeah, many pints of Guinness.
Yeah, we'll have a party.
Maybe a few whiskeys.
