Halo by Texas

-------------

Tabbed by Frederic Maquet

Hello! This is quite a hard song to play, from the

Texas "White on Blonde" album...I've put the easy way

of playing it at the bottom, if you can't be asked

playing it the hard way...it sounds pretty good too.

For the Gmaj7, you'll need to use your thumb (i.e: have

big hands)...if you can't reach the E bass string...

just forget the bass!

Enjoy....email corrections/questions/etc... to Frederic Maquet

Verse 1: (play chords once, lots of echo)

--------

G Gmaj7

Bright lights city, your heart religion,

G

Superstars in their own private movie,

Csus2 C

they play just like children

G Gmaj7

Lies that take her, places she's never seen,

G

The kiss and tell of it all,

Csus2 C

to her it seems so obscene

Bridge:

-------

Am D Dsus4 D

She's so pretty, her hair is a mess,

Am Cadd9 riff

We all love her, to that we confess

Chorus:

-------

Gmaj7 G x2 D6 D x2

She had the halo, we really do adore her

Am? Am x2 Cadd9 riff

She had the halo, and we touch her

Verse 2: (same chords as verse 1)

--------

From their blindness, she seems much further,

Like on the wide screen viewing,

Going down on her...

Play bridge then chorus

------------------------

Chorus 2:

---------

G D

She.........believes with everything

Am Cadd9 riff

Sheeehee....believes in nothing and everything

Break:

------
