Subject: Still...You Turn Me On (CORRECTED)
NOTE TO THE ARCHIVIST : You have sent me back this file because it did
not include the lyrics. Indeed, I had just forgotten to put them. So
here they are at the end of my first file.
Band : EMERSON, LAKE AND PALMER
Song : STILL YOU TURN ME ON ...
Album : Brain salad surgery, Live at the Royal Albert Hall
Tabbed by : Raphaël Chaize, student in Nice, France
As I have promised it to you, here is the tabbed "Still you turn me on",
a song written by Greg Lake for ELP. I have transcripted here the
version of the album "Live at the Royal Albert Hall" for it was easier
to transcribe since Greg sang it only with the guitar, whereas the
guitar is not easily audible in "Brain Salad Surgery", due to Emerson's
surrounding organs.
The guitar is tuned as following : D-A-D-G-B-E

Still...You Turn Me On
Written by Greg Lake
Do you want to be an angel,
Do you wanna be an angel
Do you wanna be a star
Do you wanna play some magic on my guitar
Do you wanna be a poet
Do you wanna be my string
You could be anything
Do you wanna be the lover of another undercover
You could even be the Man on the Moon
Do you wanna be the player
Do you wanna be the string
Let me tell you something
It just don't mean a thing
You see it really doesn't matter
When you're buried in disguise
By the dark glass on your eyes
Though your flesh has crystallised
(CHORUS)
Still...you turn me on
Still...you turn me on
Do you wanna be the pillow
Where I lay my head
Do you wanna be the feathers
Lying on my bed
Do you wanna be the cover
Of a magazine
Create a scene
Every day a little sadder
A little madder
Someone get me a ladder
Do you wanna be the singer
Do you wanna be the song
Let me tell you something
You just couldn't be more wrong
You see I really have to tell you
That it all gets so intense
>From my experience
It just doesn't seem to make sense
(CHORUS)
Still...you turn me on
Still...you turn me on
