I only wish I knew what they were; too much for me, especially stuck with a mere acoustic! Please, somebody, HELP! Fm Sun turning 'round with graceful motion We're setting off with soft explosion Bbm Bound for a star with fiery oceans Ab It's so very lonely Bb C Fm You're a hundred light years from home Freezing red deserts turn to dark Energy here in every part It's so very lonely you're six hundred light years from home [Break: Instrumental for first two verse lines, then "it's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home. Then the two-bars worth of music that normally ends the stanza; then repeating "it's so very lonely, you're a thousand light years from home." Back to Intro-type music.] Bell flight fourteen you can now land See you on Alpha (?) Boran Safe on the green desert sand It's so very lonely you're two thousand light years from home [Some music pretty much like the break, but mutating into other stuff to a beautifully messy end.] submittted by: Ted Hermary czth@musica.mcgill.ca  The Rolling Stones 2000 Light Years From Home (Mick Jagger and Keith Richards) The song starts with ad lib piano and reverse effects Part 1 (right hand palm muted) |--------------------------|--------------------------| |--------------------------|--------------------------| |--------------------------|--------------------------| |--------5---------4-------|--------2---------4-------| |-----2-----2----2----2----|-----2-----2----2----2----| |--0-----------0--------0--|--0-----------0--------0--| Part 2 |--------------------------| |--------------------------| |--------------------------| |-----------2-----0--------| |--------------------------| |--0--0--0-------------h3--| (h=hammer on) Part 3 |--------------------------| |-------2------------------| |-------2---------0--------| |-----------------------2--| |--0-----------------------| |--------------------------| Part 4 |--------------------------| |-----------2--------------| |-----------2-----0--------| |-----------------------2--| |--0--0--0-----------------| |--------------------------| Chorus G5 / / / / / / / / / / It's so ve - ry lone-ly A5 B5 / / / / / / / / / / / / Youre a hundred light years from home Interlude Part 1 |--------------------------|--------------------------| |------------------3-3-3-3-|------------------3-3-3---| |------------------1-1-1-1-|------------------1-1-1---| |------------------2-2-2-2-|------------------2-2-2---| |-2--2-2-----------2-2-2-2-|-2--2-2-----------2-2-2---| |-0--0-0-------------------|-0--0-0-------------------| Interlude Part 2 |--------------------------| |--------------3-3-3-3-3-3-| |--------------1-1-1-1-1-1-| |--------------2-2-2-2-2-2-| |-2--2-2-------2-2-2-2-2-2-| |-0--0-0-------------------| Interlude Part 3 |--------------------------| |--------------------------| |--------------------------| |--------------------------| |-2--2-2---2--2-2-2-2-2--2-| |-0--0-0---0--0-0-0-0-0--0-| Final Chorus G5 / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / It's so ve - ry lone-ly A5 B5 E7 / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / / Youre two thousand light years from home Chords (Low to High) EADGBe G1 XXX003 G2 3200XX G5 355XXX A5 X022XX B5 X244XX E5 022XXX E7 022130 Order to play = ad lib piano and reverse effects(not included) Part 1 2 times followed by a G1 Part 2 8 times Part 3 2 times Part 2 2 times (second time don't play the last hammer on) Chorus Part 2 8 times Part 4 2 times Part 2 2 times Chorus Part 2 4 times Interlude Part 1 2 times Interlude Part 2 3 times Interlude Part 3 1 time Chorus Part 2 4 times Chorus followed by a E7 more effects(not included) Part 1 2 times followed by a G2 Part 2 8 times Part 3 2 times Part 2 2 times (second time don't play the last hammer on) Chorus Part 2 4 times Final Chorus strings and effects(not included) 7 E5 chords sound effects(not included)
