Thanks for the response to "Bar Line 99". Here's an unsung tune of Ian's
that I really like. I'll try to get "Muddy Jesus" out when I get one of the
riffs down. But anyway, enjoy and tell others about Ian Moore.
Lie - Ian Moore
well distorted, but soft and with a fast chorus on the verses. during the
verses, pick out the three notes of the power chords (D, D#, and E) as you
go. (n/c) means no chord is played here. the intro, fills, and solo are all
in the basic Em pentatonic scale (at bottom) and i encourage you to learn
ian's stuff, but improvise on it.
Morning feels like a drag
When you're all messed up
Ain't got nobody to pick you up
And the phone don't ring like it used to do
All those you thought your friends
well they turned on you
Like a stone you've thrown your life to turns
A E (on the low E string)
of fancy and of flight
It's a liiiiiiiie.
It's a lie.
So you believe what they say
With all their guilded praise
You string up your accolades
They string up your viens
They like to push you up
But they won't let you go
They keep a tight keep a tight hold on you
Just to let you know
That they'll always be your lover
A E (low string)
And you'll never know the crime
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Break me down to blood and grit
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Monkey blood and jinkie spit
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Elevate my pedestal
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(FILL) G G# A A# B C C# D
Touch me baby - does anybody want me
Feel me baby - I still got that same old feeling bruning inside
Her me now - does anybody hear me
D D E (hold)
Remember me - remember me
(solo over main D-D#-E riff)
And you think back to the time
When you could never ever get too high
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Break me down to blood and grit
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Monkey blood and jinkie spit
It's a liiiiiiiiie
(n/c)
Elevate my pedestal
I wanna take you higher...
I wanna take you higher...
E minor pentatonic (in tab)
