just messing about by ear and not sure about proper

just repeat those four bars until the end of the verse. 
the first line of the verses/after the bridge always starts with the 0-2-0 bar.
that's really the only thing different. hopefully that makes sense. can't do words. :)

GUITAR 1

D  F#m x4


      D           F#m
i'm a bubble in a sound wave
  D              F#m
a sonic push for energy
  D                F#m
exploding like the sun
  D                    F#v
a flash of clean white hope
        D              F#m
all you scientists can hold your breath
    D           F#m
can i decide to show myself? 

oh oh

D        

F#m                             D                   F#m
(take me to the source of chaos let me be the butterfly
   D  F#m                    D                     F#m
oh my imperfect symmetry has underlying poetry in  rhyme)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/sleater_kinney/one_beat_crd.html ]
       D                 F#m
if you think like thomas edison
      D            F#m
could you invent a world for me
    D                 F#m
now all that's on the surface
    D               F#m
are bloody arms and oil fields
        D               F#m
could i turn this place upside down
    D                  F#m
    shake you and your fossils out

oh oh

D

     F#m                            D                    F#m
(you can't predict everything with newton like certainty why?
  D           F#m                            D                    F#m  (E)
i-i 'cause it floats around all we see with oscillating energy on high


F#m                D7 E7 A9 G#9
and you soothe yourself 
F#m                D7 E7 A9 G#9
with a sound you know
F#m       D7 E7 A9 G#9
you tune out 
F#m            D7 E7 A9 G#9
the hypnotic drone
F#m          D7 E7 A9 G#9 
perfect hexagon 
F#m          D7 E7 A9 G#9
of the honeycomb
F#m                 D7 E7 A9 G#9
and you soothe yourself 
F#m
with the shapes you know

         D                F#m
Should I come outside and run your cars
         D                F#m
Should I run your rockets to the stars
      D            F#m
Could you invent a world for me
  D              F#m
I need to hear a symphony
   D              F#m
If I'm to run the future
       D              F#m
You've got to let the old world go

oh oh

D

F#m                             D                   F#m
(take me to the source of chaos let me be the butterfly
   D  F#m                    D                     F#m
oh my imperfect symmetry has underlying poetry in  rhyme)



F#m                D7 E7 A9 G#9
and you soothe yourself 
F#m                D7 E7 A9 G#9
with a sound you know
F#m       D7 E7 A9 G#9
you tune out 
F#m            D7 E7 A9 G#9
the hypnotic drone
F#m          D7 E7 A9 G#9 
perfect hexagon 
F#m          D7 E7 A9 G#9

and you soothe yourself 
F#m
with the shapes you know

     D              F#m
Your word for me is fusion
       D              F#m
But is real change an illusion
        D                   F#m
Could I turn this place all upside down
    D                  F#m
And shake you and your fossils out

   D              F#m
If I'm to run the future
       D              F#m
You've got to let the old world go
      D            F#m

oh oh
