In the start of the song you can hear a bell like
sound. Try to recreate this with harmonics on the
12th fret of the high e-string.
(Kjartan uses a sort of device to make this sound)
Throughout the whole song the same chords go over
and over, except in the climax.
Play these chords for the basic progression:
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
At first he plays some harmonics over the 7th fret,
and all over the guitar (with his bow).
Just improvise like he does. The intro will
then be like this:
(on the low e-string, as usual)
|E-|-14-|-15-|-14-|-12-| two times
except the second time, it ends on a B note |-19-|
The timing is easy to catch, listening to the record.
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
ég er kominn aftur (á ný) inn í þig
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
(það er) svo gott að vera (hér til) en stoppa stutt við
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
ég flýt um í neðansjávar hýði (á hóteli)
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
beintengdur við rafmagnstöfluna (og nærist)
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
tju tju (two times)
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
en biðin gerir (mig leiðan) brot hættan
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
sparka frá mér (og kall á) verð að fara hjálp
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
tju tju tju tju (8 times)
bm A E
ég spring út og friðurinn í loft upp
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
(baðaður nýju ljosi
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
ég græt og ég græt aftengdur)
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
ónýttur heili settur á brjóst
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
og mataður af svefn-g-englum
E B7/4 C#m7 A9
tju tju tju tju (play it forever)
