Men-an-Tol Lyrics
by Levellers
My favourite levs song,
Its not exactly like the record, but then the levs play it differently every time.
Just play it and see how it sounds.
The open strings and () are mostly incidental and not part of the tune
the 5/4 bar exists in some live performances,
whether it was intentional i don't know,
but i like it. so i play it in everytime

(Use a riff sim to intro for verse)
So I find myself among
The brave Southwestern hills
Running like a madman on the moor
Let the sweet Atlantic rain
Wash away my ill's
Men-An-Tol shone strangely in the storm
picked
I get the strangest feeling
In the air around
It's more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
Something I believe in
But in amongst the city lights
The feeling's not so clear
Faceless signs and neon lights
Hide what I hold dear
It's there to find if you have the mind
G (N.C)
And you don't live in fear of it
I rest among what still remains
Of lives that passed before
Lighting strikes the top of Zennor Tor
I find myself amazed again
At man's pathetic score
Years of knowledge wasted and ignored
There we go. Think thats it.
The electric gtr parts follow along the same lines - with plenty of drive:) .
There's hammers and Pulloffs partic. at the end of lines which are fairly easy to work out.
