SHOT OF LOVE by KING'S X

from Out Of The Silent Planet

Transcribed/Deciphered by Brian King

Notes: I have made this transcription for one guitar.

If you listen closely you will hear an acoustic buried in the

mix, but I have left this out. Ther is also a sitar at end,

after the solo; this is also omitted. If I have missed any

notes, they are so minor that Ty probably does not even play

them himself live - so don't worry about it. I have included

timing notes above the staff, using the standard system of

1e&a 2e&a 3e&a 4e&a, where each one is a sixteenth note (or rest.)

Therefore, 1&2&3&4& means straight eighth notes, and 1234 means

straight quarter notes. The numbers coincide with the onset of

a note or rest. Triplets are noted by: 1 b c, 2 b c... where each

note is a third of a beat. The time signature for Shot Of Love is

4/4, noted at the beginning of each staff. NOTE: TUNE YOUR 6TH

STRING DOWN TO D! Have fun. My Internet address is:

gt6851a@prism.gatech.edu. Call me if you need help. Does anyone

want a BASS TRANSCRIPTION for this song? If so, let me know...

LYRICS:

See the bread, see the wine, see the graft into the vine

This is what is to be; it always made sense to me

Send us a shot of love (across the mountains to the sea)

>From the poles of north and south (wherever we may be)

Send us a shot of love (across the mountains to the sea)

>From the poles of north and south (wherever we may be)

Sometimes my cup is empty; my wish- that it stayed full

'Cause I am always thirsty. I can't get enough of you.

REPEAT CHORUS

There is nowhere else to go (there is nothing else to do)

There is nowhere else to turn (the first and last is you)
