2000 LIGHT YEARS FROM HOME [A start]
(Jagger/Richards)
The "breaks" in this tune are, in my opinion, the coolest part of
the song. I only wish I knew what they were; too much for me,
especially stuck with a mere acoustic! Please, somebody, HELP!
Fm
Sun turning 'round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bbm
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
Ab
It's so very lonely
Bb C Fm
You're a hundred light years from home
Freezing red deserts turn to dark
Energy here in every part
It's so very lonely
you're six hundred light years from home
[Break: Instrumental for first two verse lines, then "it's so
very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home. Then the
two-bars worth of music that normally ends the stanza; then
repeating "it's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years
from home." Back to Intro-type music.]
Bell flight fourteen you can now land
See you on Alpha (?) Boran
Safe on the green desert sand
It's so very lonely
you're two thousand light years from home
[Some music pretty much like the break, but mutating into other
stuff to a beautifully messy end.]

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 ROLLING STONES 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.
