I looked at the other tab for this, and though it is damn close,
I think my way is the correct way....
this is a really cool song when you play it right....
ok, this is the intro/main verse..pay attention to the chords, it
is very important to have the root notes accentuate when playing this.
F E B C
e|------------------|
B|------------------|
G|------------------|
D|-3-x-9-9-9-10-10--|
A|---x-7------------|
E|-1-----7-7-8--8---|
and now for the chorus...just beat the shit out of these chords!!
Notice that these are major barred chords with a fifth added to give it an octave
tone. This is considered a pedal tone....
A G F E
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--9-----------7----------5-----------4-------------------------------------|
D|--7-----------5----------3-----------2-------------------------------------|
A|--7-----------5----------3-----------2-------------------------------------|
E|--5-----------3----------1-----------0-------------------------------------|
And then there is a coda type thing as follows:
Am Bm
E|-|--0--|--2--|-|
B|-|--1--|--3--|-|
G|-|--2--|--4--|-|
D|-|--2--|--4--|-|
A|-|--0--|--2--|-|
e|-|--X--|--X--|-|
MAIN VERSE:
Hey little dreamer's eyes open and staring over me
Oh little lonely eyes open and radiant
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come I'll take your soul
Wait until I come and I will steal you
Wait until I come and I won't go
CHORUS
A G
Darlin' dreamin in the night
F
Shadows on the windows
E
Lead and everyone go
A G
Well leave me on the night
F
I will give you lightning
E
I will not relinquish light
MAIN VERSE:
Oh little dreamer eyes open and raving here
Wait until I come and see you little girl
When we come I'll leave with you too
When we come I'll let you come low
CHORUS:
Hey we'll leave it all behind
Oh and then the nightmares
I'll fill them in good time
Oh they will seat your mind
When the light hits
And you maybe'll ask me
CODA:
Am Bm
Why do you run around here
Am Bm
Why do you come inside of me
Am Bm
Why does it rip me out in dream
Am Bm
Why then why then watch this little fuck
...going away...
CHORUS:
Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely, love
Why this lonely
Why this lonely
Why this lonely, love
Halloween
Carry on
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
Bury all
And in this dream
Tell us are you satisfied with fucking
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
Don't walk away
I'm talking to you
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love is hell
Love this I'll tame you
Love
Love
Love
Love this not me here
Love
Love
Love
Love him up to you
This is a very emotional song to play....it sounds great as just an solo acoustic number.
thanks,
