Subject: CRD: "Come On Darkness" by Camper Van Beethoven
Here's my attempt at the chords for "Come On Darkness" (from Key Lime
Pie, of course):
Intro:
G F#m B E A D C
Verse:
G
Come on slowhhh
F#m B
Won't you rise and come?
E A
to the top of this hill
D C
where the cool breeze spills
G
Now that it's dusk
F#m B
someone drives them off the street
E A
let the pavements cool
D C
come on now
G
So come on, love
F#m B
and lay your body down, next to mine
E A
'cause what we're longing for
D C
has withered in the light
Chorus:
F#m
Come on darkness
G
Lay your body down on us
E
We've been calling you for so long now
A C
We're weary of your name
F#m
Come on blackness
G
Let me breathe you in
E
Cause with this cluttering and din
A Asus4 A
We are calling you
Verse again, chorus again, then end on "G", fade out with drums.

"It's quite interesting, you know, the number of biscuits that are named after
revolutionaries. You've got your Garibaldi, of course, you've got your
Bourbons, then of course you've got your Peek Freens Trotsky Assortment."
"Revolutionary biscuits of Italy / Rise up out of your box! / You have
nothing to lose but your wafers / Yum yum yum yum yum!" - Alexei Sayle
------John Fail--------------Give me a command line or give me death!------

Anyone have anything else by them? The CVB Web page only has one
mandolin song.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CAMPER VAN BEETHOVEN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
