INTRO (with Shenai)

e ------7-7---7----------------------
B ------7-7---7----------------------
G ------9-9---7------7--------9------
D ------9-9---7---7h9----9h11--------
A ------7-7---7----------------------
E ---0-------------------------------

Repeat several times. The little riff at the end is included sometimes,
and left out sometimes.

Then the orchestra joins in:

Dm C E A

(Whether you play barre chords or open chords is up to you)

PRE-VERSE RIFF:

e ------0-------0--------(0)---
B ----3-------3----------------
G --4-------2-------0h2--------

This riff can be played in several different places on the fretboard.
I have no idea how Crispian plays it.

VERSE:

The only guitar chord in the verse is an E. Crispian strikes
it (reverse strum) at the beginning of each line, and lets it ring
while he sings...

e --7--
B --7--
G --9--
D --9--
A --7--
E --0--

(If you want to play other chords in the verse, you might want to
experiment with A and G.)

CHORUS:

The chorus begins after the "wizard in a blizzard" line. It follows this
chord progression: E A G (The G chord is played when you "release" the A)
Listen to the CD if this description was a tad unclear.

e ----(7)----------------------------(0)------(0)------------
B -----7------------------------------5--------5---0---------
G -----9------------------------------6h7p6*---6---0---------
D -----9--7h9p7----7------------------7--------7---0---------
A -----7--------10---10--7--5------0-------------------------
E --0--------------------------------------------------------
|   This is the E chord        |   A chord   |   G chord |
A and G chord

* Every other time or so, the addition to the A chord is played like
this instead:

B --6h7--6h7--7p6--

After the chorus:

C            A            E    Dm
Well you've got to be stronger now

      C             A          E
Than them, Now you got to be strong

C            A          E      Dm
You'll be singing the song of life

       C            A          E
till then you just got to be strong

SOLO

CHORUS AGAIN

Dm C E A

end with the PRE-VERSE RIFF

I'M STILL HERE

by Kula Shaker - found on Peasants, Pigs & Astronauts

Transcribed by Nigel Martin - ma71nm@surrey.ac.uk
(different interpretation below)

On this beautiful song, Crispian uses an Acoustic Guitar but sounds equally good played
delicately on an Electic.

Chords

Bbm7   - 686666
G#     - 466544
BbSus4 - 668866

Intro -

Strum BbSus4 Chord once note by note twice i.e.

   E-|------------6-----------------|-
   B-|----------6-----------6-------|- (x2)
   G-|--------8-----------8---8-----|-
   D-|------8-----------8-------8---|-
   A-|----6-----------6-------------|-
   E-|--6---------------------------|-

BbSus4
I was sure I heard you singing
While my head was broken up
While my world in flames
Was rearranged

Bbm7      Bbsus4
I'm still here

G#      Bbsus4
In a blazing forest fire
in a web of my own desires

G#        Bbm7          Bbsus4
In a place that we are destined to return

Bbm7      Bbsus4
On an ocean I can't fathom
In a truth I can't unravel

Bbm7        Bbsus4
Oh..I'm still here (x2)

Correction to Nigel Martin's tab of "I'm still here":

There's an easier way to play this song. If you use a capo on the first
fret, you can get away with simple Dsus2, C and G chords (open). That's
how I saw Crispian play it live, anyway.

(2:17 on CD)
VERSE

A Dm G
If we stand here together
       F        A
And we see the world as one
Dm     G
We may think there's no future
     F    A
But it's the same for everyone
Dm G
It's like the world has lost its head
      F A
And it's like all the Prophets said
Dm[riff1]
But will we arise to a new world

All Chords repeated for rest of song.

INTRO

e -------0----------0-------0------0----
B -----10-10-----10-10-----8-8----5-----
G ---10----------9--------7------6---6--

Repeat this 3 times, then play:

e -----0-----0-----0-----0-------0-----0-----0-----0----
B ----8-8---8-8---5-6---5-6-----7-7---7-7---7-7---7-7---
G ---7-----7-----6-----6-------7-----7-----7-----7------

e -------0-----0-----0-----0---
B ------6-6---6-6---6-6---6-0--
G -----7-----7-----7-----7-----

Then it's onto this part:

e ---------------
B ---------------
G ---------------
D ---------------
A ---5-5--3--5-5-
E ---------------

Which is repeated several times with some minor
variation.

Then there is yet another riff which MIGHT be something like this:

e ----------------------
B ----------------------
G ---7-----10p7------7--
D ------10------10p7----
A ----------------------
E ----------------------
(and then again, maybe not...)

These chords follow:

Dm G   F   G A

They are all played as barre chords with some embellishments. For instance
lifting a couple of fingers here and there. Listen to the CD...

The final A chord can be tabbed like this:

e ---5-5--6--5--5-5--
B ---5-5--5--5--5-5-- This type of
G ---6-6--5--6--7-6-- "embellishment" or whatyouwannacallit
D ---7-7-----7--5-5-- can also be used in the verse
A ---7-7-----7--7-7--
E ---5-5-----5--5-5--

VERSE

        Dm          G
If we stand here together

        F                A
And we see the world as one

        Dm                G
We may think there's no future

              F              G A
But it's the same for everyone

                Dm                    G
It's like the world has lost its head

               F                A
And it's like all the prophets said

Will we arise [play the first line from the intro]
           A
to a new world

The chord progression Dm G F A continues for the rest of the song.
Sometimes a G is thrown in between the F and the A, especially
when the choir sings along.

BRIDGE:

During the "look for signs and portents" part, a barre A-chord is played.

OUTRO:

After the reprise of two of the intro riffs, this follows:

e -------0----------0-------0------0----
B -----10-10-----10-10-----8-8----5-----
G ---10----------9--------7------6---6--

Play twice, and then:

e ----0------------------------------------
B ---6-------------------------------------
G --7--------------------------------------

Where was the garden of Eden she thought had come true?

She felt like she should have been praying

Her love was a memory fading but what can you do

When you're feeling blue..

All that we said was forgotten now we don't belong

Games for the lost souls of heaven of heaven of heaven of heaven

All that we said was forgotten now we don't belong

Games for the lost souls of heaven that walk on the ground.

Strum something around G and C Chords like this:

F D
Like we may just explode
G C    G C
Oh comfort me with a melody
F     D
Show me that I'm gonna know the answer
F D

INTRO:

The intro uses these chords (low to high):

G XXX787
C XXX555
D XXX577

It goes something like this:

e --7---7---8---8---11--11---8-7-8-7---
B --8--8-8--8--8-8--8--8--8--8---------
G --7-------7-------7--------7---------

This is played a few times. Then Crispian starts singing over
the same chord (G):

e --7---7---8---8---- Play these two
B --8--8-8--8--8-8--- chords over and over
G --7-------7--------
Shower your love on me, don't make it so

======================================

e --5----5---5----5----5----5---5----5---
B --5---5-5--5---5-5---7---7-7--7---7-7--
G --5--5-----5--5------7--7-----7--7-----
hard to cry

Then the guitar really kicks in... Since the timing is a bit strange,
you should listen to the CD to find the exact chord changes.

      G   C
'Cause I

     G        D           G     C
I'm not even half the way there

G             D        G     C
I'm just too stupid to care

    Em
So help me now

      F              D
Im falling through

The next verse uses the intro chords again.

BRIDGE PART:

G
Shower your love on me

Small solo part (slide):

G --10--12--10--4--10--0--

Em          A
Oh I can't wait

      Em     A
I'm losing faith

     C                B
Like we might just explode

     Em    A          Em A
Oh comfort me with a melody
C                     B
Show me that I'm gonna know the answer

C                       B
Show me that I'm gonna know

-----

G           C      G
Shower your love on me

       C          Am         D
Don't make it so hard to cry

And don't make it so hard to cry

G            C      G
Shower your love on me

many times....Just C and G chords.

David (Dainz@aol.com) suggested that the chorus part should be as follows:

G   C
'Cause I

Em            D                  G     C
I'm not even half the way there

Em               D             G       C
I'm just too stupid to care

Em
So help me now

       F              D
