Tellin' Stories
=========-The Charlatans
Another great single from the album of the same name. Dead easy
this one - its just an acoustic banging out the chords with a bit of
electric work during the chorus.

My sweet angel's everlasing true love ways,

I'll wait I'll sow the seed I set the

scene, and I'll watch the world go by.
Csus4 C (x2)
Verse 2
See me go through changes, revelations to blank pages,
I'll find a brighter guide to see me through.
While leaves fall to the ground - turn to brown through the day,
Just like you.
This is the part of the song where the electric comes in. It's disorted
and plays just the F chords.

Verse 3
I'll be there in the mornin'
Can't you see I'm tellin' stories,
My sweet angels everlasting true love ways,
While others turn to others, introduce yopu and walk right on through.
It's just about knowing where you come from being you,
And singing love songs can't begin to fill your day.
I could lead you to the top,
Don't Stop,
I could lead you there still.
Repeat chorus.

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 CHARLATANS 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.
