                        Where's life ?
                        **************
By Keziah Jones
Normal Tunning (EADGBE)
chords :
------
      Em: 022000
EmVII   : 779987
      Am: 002210
AmV     : 577555
BmVII   : 799777
Bm7VII  : 779777
To play this song like the master, play Em with your third and fourth finger
on the 4th and 5th string, then slide while continuing to play the first three
strings G, B, E, up to the 14th fret. Then play only the three first strings
with your 1st finger crossing them at the 12th fret. Come back to Am and then
go to BmVII with your fingers sliding in the Am position... !
It's too complicated to explain in a text. Just hear the song and try it !
It should look like :
E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-0-0-0-7-7--5-5--0---------------------..
B|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-1/////7-7--5-5--0---------------------..
G|--0--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-12-12-2/////7-7--5-5--0   and do it again.--..
D|--2/////////14-----------2/////9-9--7-7--2---------------------..
A|--2/////////14-----------0-----9-9--7-7--2---------------------..
E|--0--0-0-0-0-0-----------0-----7-7--5-5--0---------------------..
//// : means slow and regular slide
Once you've got it, you simply play it again and again and start singing :
Part 1
------
Em (slide etc.)        Am BVII AmV  Em (slide etc.)...
 Please tell me where...             life is ?
Em (slide etc.)        Am BVII AmV  Em (slide etc.)...
 I'm feeling scared...               like this
Em (slide etc.)        Am BVII AmV  Em (slide etc.)...
 Why do you ask ?...                 Sadness
Em (slide etc.)        Am BVII AmV  Em (slide etc.)...
 Why should you care ?...            This madness kills
Part 2 :
------
EmVII  AmV              Bm7VII       EmVII and do it again
           Talking like one of those reasons
           Looking like one of those dreams
           looking like one of those moments
AmVII  AmV (let ring)
           You can't fool me
And then on again with the sliding stuff (part 1's rythm):
I'd like to see...       Spring
When will you be with... me ?
Why should you care ?... Madness
Why do you ask ?...      This sadness kills
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
Moments, dreams and reasons
Moments + dreams make love
Come in seasons
Yeah ! Seasons
With part 1's rythm :
Where do we go...        from here ?
These lonely roads...    I fear
Wipe your tears
Don't you worry
I'll always be here
For you
With part 2's rythm :
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
You're lyin'
Look at your face !
You're looking like one of those reasons
(You're cryin')
You're looking like one of those dreams
(Look at your face)
You're looking like one of those moments
You can't fool me...
Note :
----
For part 2's rythm, on a 4/4 measure, you play :
EmVII : 4 times
AmV   : 3 times
Bm7VII: 1 time
And on again !
In fact this song is a dialog between "Chance" and "Destiny". Hear the song,
you'll recognize who tells what...
This file is of course an approximation, from what I hear.
Any corrections, please E-mail me.
