R.E.M. - Half A World Away gitaar chord
Je score:
# From: Scott A. Yanoff HALF A WORLD AWAY {intro: Am G D Em } {on this song, Peter plays pretty much straight chords. On the Am chord, you can hear the note being hammered on to the D string (second fret) in rhythm with the song. If you don't know what I'm talking about, just play Am} A D7sus2 looks like this: (E) -0- I could have called it an Am(add D) since the low A (B) -1- is in the bass note I believe. However, It leads into (G) -2- a G chord, and musically, a D is what you'd want to (D) -0- call it. (A) -0- (E) --- > {notice that the majority of this song follows the pattern: G / D / Em / Am D7sus2 It's really cool how the progression starts out on Am but in the middle of the song, the verse starts pretty much on G.} Am G > This could be the saddest dusk D Em > I've ever seen Am > Turn to the miracle G D > I alive Em Am > My mind is racing G D > As it always will Em Am > My hand is tired my heart aches G D > >From half a world away Em > Hear my head swarm F > To go it alone > And hold it alone D > Haul it alone Dsus4 D > And hold it F > Go it alone > Hold it alone > D7 G D > Oh lonely deeps and hollows Em > Half a world Am D7sus2 G > Half the world away D > My shoes are gone Em Am D7sus2 > And life spent G D > I had too much to drink Em > I didn't think Am D7sus2 G > I didn't think of you D Em > I guess that's all I needed F > To go it alone > And hold it alone D > Haul it alone > And hold it F D7 > Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall > D7 G D > Oh this lonely world is wasted Em Am D7sus2 G > Pathetic eyes high life D Em Am > The blinded tide is turned to sea G D > The storm it came up strong Em > And it shook the trees Am D7sus2 G > And blew away our fear D Em > I couldn't need to hear > {same as before} > To go it alone > And hold it alone > Haul it alone > And hold it > To go it alone > And hold it alone > Haul it along > To go it alone > And hold it alone > Haul it along > And hold it > Blackbirds backwards forwards and fall > > This could be the saddest dusk > I've ever seen > Turn to the miracle > I alive > My mind is racing > As it always will > My hand is tired my heart aches > From half a world away From: csb1@engr.engr.uark.edu (Chris Bray) HALF A WORLD AWAY (by REM) Intro: | Am | G | D Dsus4 D Dsus2 | Em | Am G D Dsus4 D Dsus2 Em This could be the saddest dusk I've ever seen Am G D Dsus4 D Dsus2 turn to a miracle, high alive.
