This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Song

From: ericb@julimar5.ecr.mu.oz.au (Enrico_Giuseppe BETTIO)

Subject: TAB: 10,000 Years - +Live+

Here is how I think 10,000 Years goes, there shouldn't be too many mistakes.

I don't have the CD, just a copy so the lyrics are my best guess.

To play along with the cd, tune down half a step first

10,000 Years - by +Live+

------------ from the album "Mental Jewelry"

intro:

something like:

A F G

E-||-----------------------------------------||
B-||------2h3-0h2--------------1-------3-----||
G-||o-----2---2----------------2-------4----o||
D-||o---2------------2-0-------3-0-----5-0--o||
A-||--0----------------------3-------5-------||
E-||-----------------------1-------3---------||

and that repeats over most of the verses, an electric plays something

similar, maybe just the first three notes per chord.

the bridge is: (listen to the album for a better idea of the rythm)

A G A A G A F G

E-||-----5-3-5-----5-3-5---|---1---1-1-1-1-/3---3-3-3-3-3--||
B-||--xx-5-3-5--xx-5-3-5---|-x-1-x-1-1-1-1-/3-x-3-3-3-3-3--||
G-||o-xx-6-4-6--xx-6-4-6---|-x-2-x-2-2-2-2-/4-x-4-4-4-4-4-o||

the guitar cuts out a bit after the first bridge leaving the bass.. then

comes in slowly:

verse 1:

The world is burning down, cant you smell the smoke in the air?

War, disease and famine, this demon she is everywhere.

Poets and preachers and politicians, they've all had their say.

We got 10,000 years devoted to nothing but tomorrow and yesterday.

10,000 years... woah..

chorus:

Fmaj7/C A

If all the ignorance in the world passed a second ago.

F G A

What would you say?

F G A F G

Who would you obey?

Fmaj7/C

I am here to say that

A (continue progression)

Peace is now

Peace is now

bridge:

verse 2:

Mr President I .... of all your sins, for they are just as much mine

Selfishness and separation have led me to believe that the world is not my

problem.

The world is not my problem

I am the world

And you are the world

And I.. I, yes I am the world

And you are the world

chorus:

bridge:

peace is now.... etc

ending: G A repeat
