functioning.

Faith in Something Bigger, by the Who

from Odds n' Sods

Intro: Hold the 5th fret of the B-string to get an E drone. The notes

go on the E-string to make different voicings of the E chord:

4 4-5-sl-7 7-5-4 4-2-0 0-2-4

Verse chords should be on the G,B,e strings:

E xxx454

F#m xxx675

D xx0775

The A at the end of each line of the chorus can be played as xxx9109

Melody:

By fingering the verse as above, you can incorporate the melody into

the guitar playing. The verse chords are played with the E string

playing:

4 4-5-4-2-4

5 5-7-5-4-5

5

By playing the same notes two octaves down, you get the short solo. I

start on the D string, 6th fret.

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

It may be [E] warm,

But the snow is going to [F#m] fall

Enough to cover us [D] all.

We've gotta be [B] strong men (na-na-na-na)

And follow a [G] path again. (na-na-na-na)

We've got to have

A A E D D A

Faith in something bigger,

Faith in something bigger,

Faith in something big inside [E] ourselves

It might be [E] cold,

But the heat of our love will [F#m] melt

The snow we've never [D] felt.

We're young and [B] hardy again

We bow to [G] weaker men.

We've got to have

chorus

[G] The more we learn, [D] the less we begin to be true.

[G] The more we prove, [A] the more remains to be proved [Asus4/A].

Solo over verse

We've gotta be [B] strong men

And follow a [G] path again.

We've got to have

chorus

Inside our[B7]selves.

[B7] Faith in something bigger (repeat and fadeout)
