"Lead Of Love" by Caedmon's Call
From "Caedmon's Call", Warner Alliance 1997
Words and music by Aaron Tate
Copyright 1997 Cumbee Road Music ASCAP
II Samuel 7:18-19


Capo 2 in E (F#), standard-tuned six-string acoustic.  Quick tempo in 4.  This
also sounds great on a 12-string.


     This is a simple song that can work well with a single guitar and even with
a single voice.  It's all strumming, except for some optionial flat-picking for
the intro.  Cliff sings lead, the lyrics in ALL CAPS.  Derek echoes or
harmonizes on the parts marked with (parentheses).  Danielle joins for the parts
in {braces}.

   Opening to "Lead of Love"
   Written by Aaron Tate
   Arranged by Caedmon's Call
   Transcribed by Alex. =)

   Here's the opening of "Lead of Love." Just capo on 2, it's all on    the highest three strings (G, B, E). The highest two strings (B, E)
   are always open (no fingers, just play the capoed note), so basically
   you just move up and down the G string. Just make sure your finger doesn't
   hit the open strings, to keep them ringing.

   Since the highest two strings are always open, I numbered them as 0,
   (even though they're technically 2nd fret because of the capo), but
   for the G string I've named the fret by the ACTUAL number, so it's easier
   to figure out where you are that way.

   And as in all tab, make sure you're reading this in a font that gives
   equal spaces for each character (ex. courier), or else the lines won't
   line up.

     Normally Alex's version of the intro is better, but on a 12-string use this
version on just the bottom two "courses" (pairs of strings), b and e.  I run
through the intro lick--Alex's unless I'm on a 12-string--once, and then I start
strumming the full chords.

     Once you go to strumming full chords, the easiest way is to use the basic E
and A9 fingerings.  This way your hand is always in the same position at the
second fret.  You can also add the hammer to the E and the optional notes to the
A9 with your pinky finger.  This puts part of the intro lick within the chords
and spices things up a bit.  But here's an even better way that's not much more
difficult:

e|---0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----0---
b|---0-----0---------0-----0---------0-----7---------0-----0---
g|---9-----8---------6-----1---------9-----9---------6-----2---
d|---9-----9---------7-----2---------9-----9---------7-----2---
a|---7-----9---------7-----2---------0-----0---------0-----0---
e|---0-----0---------0-----0---------x-----x---------x-----x---
     E   Emaj7     Esus6   E         A9  Asus6      A(9)   A9

     These chords also contain the intro lick and sound much better than just
the basic E and A9.  I use these in the intro, after the first chorus, and in
the outro, though I use the basic E and A9 for about half of the outro to keep
these from getting monotonous.  Note that you can play all this keeping your
ring finger on the 4th string.
