Subject: CRD: "So you'd like to save the world" by Lloyd Cole
Here's my attempt at "So You'd Like To Save The World" by Lloyd
Cole off his "Bad Vibes" album. Lloyd wrote this wondering what it
would be like to go out with Natalie Merchant.
Listen to the song to get the muting and accents that Lloyd puts on
individual chords (ie the muting on the G and the accents on the
C in the verses)
Capo at 4th - chords written like they are played at first position
(ie G=B)
Chords
G 320033 G/B x20033
C* x32013 D xx0232
C x32010 Am7 x02010
Intro G
G C* G
So you'd like to save the world
G C*
I suggest you start one person at a time
G/B Am7 G
and start with me
G C* G
Not an ordinary girl
G C*
Not some that I should hit upon
G/B Am7 G
and ask "Hey what's your sign babe"
*Prechorus*
Am7 D
Have you been reading my mind (what did you find)
Am7 D
Nothing more or less terestrial
G C
Could I keep you in mind
*Chorus*
C G D C
Did you really cry
C G D C
When you saw the hole in the sky
C G/B Am7 G
Did you really hold your head high
C D C
That's alright you might call it ultraviolet radiation
Its only sunlight
G C G C G
*same as other verse*
So you'd like to save my world
If you could free my inner child then
I could free your inhibitions babe
Or would you like to mother me
I love the way you wear that montrola(?) robe
Generation chic mama
Pre chorus
Chorus - same as other except instead of G C G C G go into
following over chorus chords
Aw yes it is
Aw yes it is
Aw yes you might call it ultraviolet radiation
Its only sunglight
(Noodling around on C)
*over chorus chords *
So you'd like to save the world
I'd really like to help you
I'd really like to free you
Is that alright
I could call it ultraviolet radiation
But its only sunlight
Its only sunlight
Its only sunlight
You could call it ultrviolet radiation
fade on C
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 LLOYD COLE 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.
