Subject: TAB: world i know by collective soul
World I know-
by Collective Soul
off the self-titled album
tabbed by:
Scott, the guitar freak (scottf@scs.unr.edu)
-and- Chad Hanley (chanle51@maine.main.edu)
**NOTE: in the verses, use barre chords.. in the chorus, use the open
fingerings... that's how it sounded when i heard it.. i'll also give you
a more powerful-sounding chorus...
***NOTE: if no symphony is available for your rendition, keyboards work
nicely... :)
VERSE I
D A Bm
Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the kindness gone?
Hope still lingers on.
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sitting alone in New York City.
And I don't know why.
Verse II
D A Bm
Are we listening?
Hymns of offering
Have we eyes to see
That love is gathering?
A
All the words that I've been reading
Have now started the act of bleeding
G
Into one....Into one.
CHORUS
D A
So I walk upon high
G
And I step to the edge
D
To see my world below.
A
And I laugh at myself
C
While the tears roll down.
G
'Cause it's the world I know.
D
It's the world I know.
VERSE III (look at end of Verse I)
I drink myself of newfound pity
Sittin alone in New York City.
And I don't know why.
Don't know why.
CHORUS (check out the first chorus)
So I walk upon high
And I step to the edge
to see my world below.
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.
Yeah, I walk upon high
And I step to the edge
To see my world below
And I laugh at myself
While the tears roll down.
'Cause it's the world I know.
It's the world I know.
at the end when the symphony kicks in, Childress (i think) is
arpeggiating a D, and throwing in the 4th sometimes (Dsus4)
and the song ends on a Dsus4...
(i've only heard the song twice on MTV, and at the time i didn't have my
guitar.. i had to get home and play from memory... )
