One Step Ahead - Split Enz
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From 'Waiata' and 'Enz of an Era'.
Transcribed by John Kean (keanj@agresearch.cri.nz).
INTRO: (bass line only: no chords)
G F# D C# C G C C#
VERSE 1:
Em/G D/F# Bm/D Em/C#
One step ahead of you
C G C Em/C#
Stay in motion, keep an open mind
Em/G D/F# Bm/D Em/C#
Love is a race run by two
C G C Em/C#
Your emotion, my solitude
A Dm/A A
If I stop I could lose my head
G C A
So I'm losing you instead
Dm/A Dm
Either way I'm confused
C Asus2
You slow me down - what can I do?
Dm C Em/G A
There's one particular way I have to choose
VERSE 2:
One step ahead of you
Always someone makes it hard to move
She says: "Boy, I want you to stay"
But I save it all for another day
If I stop I could lose my head
But I'm ready for romance
Either way I'm confused
I don't know what I'm s'posed to do
I can only stay one step ahead of you
VERSE 3:
La da-de-da-dah (etc)
Stop! I confess sometimes
I don't know where I'm going
Part of me stays with you
I'm slowing down, what can I do?
It's hard to stay one step ahead of you
VERSE 4:
One step ahead of you
Time is running out, catching up with you
One step ahead of you
When I hold you close can I really lose?
One step ahead, only one step ahead
She's one step ahead of you...

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 SPLIT ENZ 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.
