Ben Harper's Glory and Consequence from The Will to Live
This song is tabbed out for a guiter tuned to E (EADGBe),
but Ben tunes his guitars down to D(DGCFAd) and then plays this
tune a tone higher, i.e A, but you can still play along
as if the tune was in G.
Riff 1
Clean
G---2-------0h2p0----------5--------0h2p0-------4--------0h2p0-------4-|
D---3--0--2-------3p2p0----5--0--2-------3p2p0--5--0--2-------3p2p0--5-|
This is both the intro riff and the chorus riff, and the chord
structure also does for the solo.
the verse riff goes like this
there are two guitars playing at this point, with the acoustic playing
the above riff, and an electric just playing the chords.
Lyrics:
i'm more afraid of living than i am scared to die
im more afraid of falling than i am of flying high
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
(repeat the above pattern)
im more afraid of loving than i am of being scorned
but i will keep on trying though i have been forewarned
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
i would rather be lonely and you have someone to hold
im not as scared of dying as i am of growing old
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
Maybe ill get around to tabbing the solo a bit later. till then
