Flood Of Sunshine

"FLOOD OF SUNSHINE" By The Posies

From the album, "Dear 23"

From: 'PopLlama' K. G. Giambrone (popllama@u.washington.edu)

This song requires a drop D tuning. So instead of the standard EBGDAE

tuning, you will have to drop the low E to a D, thus EBGDAD. The easiest

way to do this is to pluck the low E string and the D string at the same

time and lower the pitch of the low E until it is a D. And pray that you

don't have a tremelo which will screw that up. :)

This song's chord progression may seem difficult at first, but realize that

most of the changes require the movement of only one finger.

Opening Riff:

D----0h2p0------- h=hammer on

A-0h2-----2p0---- p=pull off

D------------2^p0 ^=bend

We Could Walk All Night, Still I'd See Sunshine

Its The Calling Of Your Name

All sounds combine into the Same

C C/D, C, Cmaj7, C, D, Dsus4

And I hear you

When its overcast I'm not there will you still (love me)

When the clouds have passed and I return will you still (love me)

Its the calling of your voice

Your eyes are crying and your lips

are moist

To where are all my castles and cathedrals (to ruin)

They crumbled just like sand in front of us

Like ripples in the water

Your hands reached out to me

And all the things they taught us

Floated out to sea.

SOLO (yeah... dream on buddy. You think I could tab *THAT* out!?)

We could drown ourselves in a flood of sunshine

And we could walk all night till I see sunshine

And now... the chords!!
