Music

I don't have the patience anymore to transcribe Steely Dan songs (although I'd really like to get the chords to "The Fez" if anyone out there knows them). So for fun here's a nice little Stereolab ditty with only 6 chords, and all of them major sevenths. Lyrics and translation courtesy of ultra-high frequency: the unofficial stereolab website.

Chords for Stereolab, "Des Etoiles Electroniques", from Mars Audiac Quintet

Intro:

Amaj7 Gmaj7 Fmaj7
F#maj7 Bmaj7 Amaj7
[repeat]

Verse:

Amaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Les villes vues d'avion sont semblables,

Amaj7 Cmaj7 Fmaj7
Les villes vues d'avion sont semblables

Amaj7 Cmaj7
À des étoiles électroniques

Fmaj7
Ce soir, écrasées

Amaj7 Cmaj7
Au sol pour prendre racine

Fmaj7
Et vivre ainsi étalées

repeat a few times, play the intro again, verse instrumental, intro, verse again

Electronic Stars
Translation
Towns seen from an airplane are similar
Towns seen from an airplane are similar
To electronic stars
Tonight, crashed
to the ground to take root
And live spread out thus
