WHERE'S LIFE?
=============
By Keziah Jones
Written by Paul Orsoni (orsoni@gwsmtp.hec.fr)
Normal Tunning (EADGBE)
CHORDS
Em : 0 2 2 0 0 0
EmVII : 7 7 9 9 8 7
Am : 0 0 2 2 1 0
AmV : 5 7 7 5 5 5
BmVII : 7 9 9 7 7 7
Bm7VII : 7 7 9 7 7 7
To play this song like the master, play Em with your third and fourth
finger on the 4th and 5th string, then slide while continuing to play
the first three strings G, B, E, up to the 14th fret. Then play only
the three first strings with your 1st finger crossing them at the 12th
fret. Come back to Am and then go to BmVII with your fingers sliding
in the Am position... ! It's too complicated to explain in a text.
Just hear the song and try it !
It should look like :
E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-0-0-0-7-7--5-5--0
B|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-1/////7-7--5-5--0
G|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-2/////7-7--5-5--0 and do it again...
D|--2/////////14-----------2/////9-9--7-7--2
A|--2/////////14-----------0-----9-9--7-7--2
E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-----------0-----7-7--5-5--0
//// : means slow and regular slide
Once you've got it, you simply play it again and again and start singing.
PART 1
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)...
Please tell me where... life is ?
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)...
I'm feeling scared... like this
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)...
Why do you ask ?... Sadness
Em (slide etc.) Am BVII AmV Em (slide etc.)...
Why should you care ?... This madness kills
PART 2
EmVII AmV Bm7VII EmVII and do it again
Talking like one of those reasons
Looking like one of those dreams
looking like one of those moments
AmVII AmV (let ring)
You can't fool me
And then on again with the sliding stuff (part 1's rythm):
I'd like to see... Spring
When will you be with... me ?
Why should you care ?... Madness
Why do you ask ?... This sadness kills
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
Moments, dreams and reasons
Moments + dreams make love
Come in seasons
Yeah ! Seasons
With part 1's rythm :
Where do we go... from here ?
These lonely roads... I fear
Wipe your tears
Don't you worry
I'll always be here
For you
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
Look at your face !
You're looking like one of those reasons
(You're cryin')
You're looking like one of those dreams
(Look at your face)
You're looking like one of those moments
You can't fool me...
NOTE
For part 2's rythm, on a 4/4 measure, you play :
EmVII : 4 times
AmV : 3 times
Bm7VII: 1 time
And on again !
In fact this song is a dialog between "Chance" and "Destiny".
Hear the song, you'll recognize who tells what...
