Ben Harper - Glory And Consequence guitar tab

From: Jim and Sheryll Keane

Ben Harper's Glory and Consequence from The Will to Live

This song is tabbed out for a guiter tuned to E (EADGBe),

but Ben tunes his guitars down to D(DGCFAd) and then plays this

tune a tone higher, i.e A, but you can still play along

as if the tune was in G.

This is both the intro riff and the chorus riff, and the chord

structure also does for the solo.

there are two guitars playing at this point, with the acoustic playing

the above riff, and an electric just playing the chords.

Lyrics:

C F G C F G

i'm more afraid of living than i am scared to die

C F G C F G

im more afraid of falling than i am of flying high

F C G F C G

every moral has a story and every story has an end

F C G F C G

every battle has its glory and its consequence

(repeat the above pattern)

im more afraid of loving than i am of being scorned

but i will keep on trying though i have been forewarned

every moral has a story and every story has an end

every battle has its glory and its consequence

i would rather be lonely and you have someone to hold

im not as scared of dying as i am of growing old

every moral has a story and every story has an end

every battle has its glory and its consequence

Maybe ill get around to tabbing the solo a bit later. till then
