Hey, write me if you disagree.
Okay, the song consists of a riff over the verses and then
a simple chord progression for the chorus. Here's the riff:
-------------------------------------------
------3---------3---------3-------3--------
----0---0-----0---0-----0---0--------------
--------------------------------0-------0--
--0-------0-2-------2-3-------3-----0h1----
-------------------------------------------
it's basically a C chord with a walking bass note.
Play the riff over the verses.
[verse]
we sing the the nightingale song alive
streets never border further than my sight
we sing the nightingale song alive
we might be different but our hearts won't lie
[chorus]
F
And little ever changes
Am
If anything at all
G C G
But the song sings loudly through these halls
[verse]
we sing the nightingale song alive
we might be different but our hearts won't lie
[chorus]
F
And little ever changes when you
Am
View it from the sky
G
The damage we encounter
C
The earth just passes by
F
And little ever changes
Am
If anything at all
G C G
And we remind ourselves how small we are
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 TOAD THE WET SPROCKET 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.
