Woman As Salvation
by JACKOPIERCE
Em D C Em D C
______
G D C G D C
Em D C C9 C
Talking girlfriend as religion
Em D C C9 C
Of faith lost and new found
Em D
Of disillusion with the system
C C9 C
Of justice and redemption
Em D C C9 C
Of blind faith and let me downs
(Chorus)
G D C C9 C
Talking 'bout my lady of good hope
Woman as savior, my salvation
A mighty queen who arrives on the edge of town
To salvage the cause and save my dying nation
And I was just a citizen of the city
Making wages in the bakery in the square
Kneading dough and thinking revolution
When my lady, she appeared
Conversion on the spot to her
Woman as religion - time for holy war
I raise a fist above my head and to her I swore
My allegiance
(Chorus)
And there was revolution in the streets
Barricades at the parliament house
Strong victories and hard defeats
In the battle to win my own crown
And save my dying nation
Talking 'bout woman as salvation
(Intro)
And Gregory Steele <steele@zebra.seas.smu.edu> adds the final touches:
During the four strums of D, it is actually three chords:
L H
E E
000232 This is standard D (1)
000233 This is D add 9 (I think) (2)
000230 And this is D something or other (3)
The rapidly strummed chords are 1,2,1,3
The C is a C add 9 and looks like:
L H
E E
032030
The strum is C, C+9, C.
For both of these, hold the original chords as you normally do, and add
the new notes w/ the pinky.
That's It! Have fun.

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 JACKOPIERCE 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.
