Final update – April 16, 2009.
A little bit embarrasing to get this to you more than a year after the release but hey, better late than never right?
Anyway, what I found out was that the chords were wrong…again. Thanks to Venzael I changed the progression from ”Dm F C Bm” to ”Dm F C Dmaj7″. She was actually right about the last one, but Dm and C is not correct. It’s supposed to be ”BbM7 F Am7 Dmaj7″. I’m changing the whole thing now. Last time, I promise!
———————————-
”You have to burn the rope” keeps spreading. I’ve had some requests about the chords I’m playing. I was going to reply fast but then I realised that I’d forgotten how I played the song…
I thought the end of the verse-progression was Bm. Oh how wrong I was. Thanks to Venzael it’s now correct.
Verse
BbM7 – F – Am7 – Dmaj7
BbM7……..F
Congratulations
Am7………………….Dmaj7
you managed to kill that boss you see
BbM7………………….F
the Grinning Colossus
Am7……………………….Dmaj7
you’re the hero we all wish we could be
BbM7……………………… ………F
You made it through the tunnel
Am7…………………………..Dmaj7
then you grabbed that fire on the wall
BbM7…………………..F
you jumped up above him
Am7…………………………..Dmaj7
then you burned the rope and saved us all
BbM7 – F
Am7……………………Dmaj7
you burned the rope and saved us all
BbM7 – F
Am7……………………Dmaj7
you burned the rope and saved us
Chorus
A……………………G
Now you’re a hero
………………………..D…………………………A
you managed to beat the whole damn game
………………………………G
we’re happy you made it
………………………..D……………………………………A
but how are you gonna spend the rest of this day
E
maybe watch a video
…………………………………………….A
maybe press refresh and start again
Bridge
G…………A
Yes it’s over now
G……………A
we didn’t want to make a longer game
G……..A………………..E
this is it I swear it’s true
oh ohh

I’d like to add some trivia here.
You know the second time I sing ”You burned the rope and saved us all”, that’s when I start to play a string on my keyboard. There’s a construction site right next to my house where they’re building around the clock. This perticular night I was editing the song in Reason when I heard a high pitch tone coming streaming through the window. I thought ”hey, I have to have some strings somewhere in my song.”.
You never know where inspiration will come from.

I loved the music so much. I’ve tried playing it on piano and with help of these chords it’s coming along pretty well!
As for the Bm chord, I think it’s Dmaj7. Also, the sixth (B) sounds great in the bass when you play it :)
Awesome stuff!
I’ve listened to all of your tracks. This particular song starts off with a smooth Deep House kinda sound which I really like. Just curious but what kind of keyboard/controller did you use to make this? It sounds great.
I am really impressed by the music you have produced. I absolutly love this song and thanks for the chords.
Keep up the good work!
Du gör rå skön musik!
Spelet är inte för lätt som många verkar tycka, det är snarare konst. Jag jobbar med flash men mina spel är för dåliga för att få first page på Newgrounds, grattis! :D
@ Venzael: Thanks for the solution.
@ John: What do you mean? The sound at the very beginning?
@ Henrik: Let’s hear you sing it on YouTube :)
@ Jernberg: Tack! Du verkar förstå vad vi vill åstadkomma. Jo första sidan på Newgrounds var helt otroligt. Nu har vi förlorat den men det var kul så länge det varade :)
Love that song. Where i can download it?
@ Albba: Search the site and ye shall find.

great song man, love it. But I’m wondering on what kind of strummming pattern you use in the song when you go in the chorus
I agree with Jernberg, its art, its beutiful!, both the game and the song!

I just dropped in to say THANKS!
HARD ACORDS BUT IN THE END I LEARN THE SONG ON THE GUITAR THANK YOU
Hey, I have been a fan ever since I played You Have to Burn the Rope. The game was good but what made it the best was the song at the end.
Thank you for the chords. Also I think I am going to try and organize a band to cover it just to have fun and confuse people who haven’t heard of you.
Keep being awesome.
Thank you so much!
This is awesome!
@JETSPARKER- Hard Chords? (and yes I know you’re talking about the keyboard part)
Could you maybe make some sheet music for ease and convenience.
Unfortunately not but if someone (you perhaps?) would do that I’d happily post it with proper credits.
