State of Emergency
by Cactus World News
Chords used by lead guitar:
Em(both fret 1 & 7), A(5th), Bm(7th), C(8th)
Guitar riffs:
(∫ indicates slightly arpeggiated chord strum)
E -0-0--0-0-----------7-7-----------5-5-----------| (repeats)
∫ ∫ ∫ ∫
A time of change, a time to rest
Bolt up the windows, dig in hard shoulder
Then come out, to give yourself,
to give yourself a fighting chance
I've seen those eyes, I know that face
So many search for a resting place
Just give me your word, that's all I need
No time to lose, I've wasted too much already
Making plans by the ninety, taking action by the new time
B -8-------10-10-8-8------8-------10-10-8-8s7-7-----0-|
∫ ∫ ∫
The lonely search in the silent halls
Hunters prowl around wounded in the night
By an unknown enemy, who runs them down
By wearing a hundred different masks
With darkness closing all around
Your light is small but let it shine
That much brighter, everytime, everytime
Everytime I look to you
B -8-------10-10-8-8------8-------10-10-8-8s7-7-----0-|
E -8----------------------8-------------------------0-| (repeats)
∫ ∫ ∫
E ------------------------------------------------| (repeats)
G -7-7p9-9-7-7-9-9-|
E -----------------| (repeat a few times before launching into next riff/solo)
G -9s-||------------------------------------------||
E ----||------------------------------------------|| (repeats over chord progression Em G A below)
Urgent embrace and a love that calls
Throw away the old -- and greet the emergency
With all you've got, with all you can give
Greet it with all that you have got
The time has come -- the time is right
The time has come -- the time is right
The time has come -- the time is right
The time has come -- the time is right
Em G A (retard here)
(I took some liberties here to give it a definite ending)
