"Wings" from Nektar's album _Sounds Like This_ Written by Nektar, transcribed by Christopher C Heckman. This is a personal interpretation of that song and is in no way are connected with the actual music, other than the fact that it may bear a striking resemblance (at some future point) to the contents of these files. Also, all songs are for private study alone; making money off of them would violate various copyright laws. ******************************************************************************** This has some neat bits in it, and some chords I can't make up my mind about. To start out, the introduction/verses start out as: Am Em Am C (?) E:---------|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|-------------| B:---------|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|-------------| G:---------|-----------------|---------------|-----------------|-------------| D:---------|-----------0--2--|---------------|-----------------|-------------| A:---------|--0-----3--------|---------------|--0-----0--2--3--|-------------| E:--0-2-3--|-----------------|--0-----0-2-3--|-----------------|-------------| Where the C might actually be correct. When this part is repeated following itself, the first measure is modified as follows: (Am) Am E:-----------------|--------- B:-----------------|--------- G:-----------------|--------- D:-----------0--2--|--------- A:-(0)----3--------|--0------ E:-----------------|--------- which continues as in the original Am - Em - Am - C (?) sequence. During the pauses (between the runs, that is), you can fingerpick the appropriate chord, which is about all Roye does. (Nothing real fancy; he also sings the lyrics!) Then the song goes as: [Intro: original bit, then the modified bit. The lyrics begin at this point.] [VERSE 1] Am Em Am C(?) Never needed time, love, 'cos it's the only way, Am Em Am C(?) My feet are on the ground, my head is all around. [CHORUS 1] Dm(?) Am Dm Am Em Don't need no wings to fly away, don't need no love, ah__ today. [VERSE 2] Am Dm Am C(?) Watching all the world, floating in the sky, Am Dm Am C(?) Waiting for the word to pass the others by. [CHORUS 2] Dm(?) Am Dm Am Em Don't need no wings to fly away, don't need no love, ah__ some sweet day. [Play the sequence over an empty verse, i.e. singing:] La-la la-la la ... [then repeat CHORUS 2, there's a nice bit at the end in Am.] transcribed by checkman@math.gatech.edu
