This is my take on Daft Punk's Something About Us. I play it with my fingers,
(except the solo) but you could play with a pick too, just mute the unused
strings when playing the chords. I think it's pretty close to the recording.
Just repeat the rhythm parts the appropriate amount of times. There are subtle
changes between the chords in the intro, so be wary. Great song to play with a
loop pedal!

The solo just repeats until the song fades out. Here are the lyrics and chord
placements.
 
 
BbM7                Am7
It might not be the right time
 
Dm9                Gm
I might not be the right one
 
            BbM7                 A7
But there's something about us I want to say
 
              Dm11                        Gm7
Cause there's something between us anyway
 
 
BbM7               Am7
I might not be the right one
 
Dm9                 Gm
It might not be the right time
 
            BbM7                    A7
But there's something about us I've got to do
 
Dm11                       Gm7
Some kind of secret I will share with you
 
 
BbM7                    Am7
I need you more than anything in my life
 
Dm9                     Gm
I want you more than anything in my life
 
BbM7                       A7
I'll miss you more than anyone in my life
 
Dm11                    Gm7
I love you more than anyone in my life
