Love You Til

Love You 'Til the Day I Die

(N. Finn)

NOTES:

-- Listening to this song, the guitar work sounds very complex. I

was pleasantly surprised to find out that the verses are constructed

on two chords. However, Neil is adding a lot of other little licks

and "side chords" in between to make things interesting. (for exam-

ple, one of his faves is an Em form like this: X7978[10].) I would

suggest you do your own goofing around and figure out what works.

-- The bridge ("Frost on the window pane...") is particularly tricky

in this song, but once you get the fingerings down, it flows beauti-

fully.

INTRO: B7* Em* B7 Em B7 Em

There's closets in my head where dirty things are kept

That never see the light of day

I want to drag them out, go for a walk

Just to see the look that's on your face

Sometimes I can't be straight I don't want to hurt you

So forgive me if I tell a lie

Sometimes I come on cold but don't believe it

I will love you till the day I die

I believe in doing things backwards

Take heed, start doing things in reverse

Here comes trouble, there's nothing wrong when I relax

I'm talking to myself you're coming with me

Teaching you how to distort the facts

Sometimes I can't be straight I don't want to hurt you

So forgive me if I tell a lie

Sometimes I come on cold but don't believe it

I will love you till the day I die

I believe in doing things backwards

Take heed, start doing things in reverse

Em B*

Frost on the window pane, the sound of pouring rain

G/B* G(11)/B*

All makes me glad of you

Though I am far away I am always with you

Know the answer before you know the question

Pull yourself together, baby, push with all your might

Em B G/B G(11)/B

I'm all alone, always alone

Though I am far away

C B(VII)

I am always with you
