DEF LEPPARD - "two steps behind2" Tablature
Official DEF LEPPARD Tablature & Sheet Music »
Song: 2 steps behind (Retroactive)
--------------
by: Def Leppard
tabbed by: Keiju (bunga_anciano@yahoo.com)
...Normal Tune...
...This file is better read with Courier (size 10)...
Here´s my idea of a total guitar tab of this song. I´ve used previous tabs of the song, modified them, organized them and put all in a only tab. This tab was requested by Justin Minnick.
The solo is based on the simpler solo tabbed by "unknown" (burrowpimp13@yahoo.com)
The Chords were originally tabbed by Scott Hagberg (hagbergs@stolaf.edu)
And Sharaf Hameed gave me the idea about the Intro
I want to thank all of them.
By the way the original song uses violin backup... it isn´t tabbed, of course :)
The Violin starts playing in the first verse very light but it´s better heard after the first chorus.

- Verse:
[A] [D] [G] [D]
Walk away, if you want to.
[A] [D] [G] [D]
It's okay if you need to.
[A] [D] [E] [D]
You can run, but you can never hide
[A] [D] [E] [D]
From the shadow that's creepin up beside you.
- Chorus:
[F#m] [D]
There's a magic runnin' through your soul
[G] [E] [Silence]
But you can't have it all. (What ever you do)
[A] [D] [E] [D]
I'll be two steps behind you (Where ever you go)
[A] [D] [E] [D]
And I'll be there to remind you
[A] [D] [E] [G] [Bass Drops and gets up again]
That it only takes a minute of your precious time
[D] [Silence]
To turn around, I'll be two steps behind.
[A] [D] [G] [D] (x2)
- 2nd Verse (play a bit softer):
[A] [D] [G] [D]
Take the time to think about it.
[A] [D] [G] [D]
Just walk the line, you know you just can't fight it.
[A] [D] [E] [D]
Take a look around, you'll see what you can find
[A] [D] [E] [D]
Like the fire that's burnin' up inside me.

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 DEF LEPPARD 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.
