Everybody Wants To Rule

This is one in a list of Tears For Fears chords that was sent to me by

Keith <SEIFERTK@NCCCOT2.AGR.CA>, who took the time out to figure them

out. I figured I'll go ahead and post/archive them if anyone's

interested. I made a tiny suggestion and came up with a mock solo on

this one.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World

transcribed by Keith <seifertk@ncccot2.agr.ca>

Intro: 4 times |A/D G/D- -| |

(Keith suggests tuning the E bass string down to a 'D' to get the bass

rhythm to the song)

(I like to use (xx022x) for A/D and (xx000x) for G/D)

Welcome to your life, there's no turning back,

Even while we sleep, we will find you

Acting on your best behavior

Turn your back on mother nature,

Everybody wants to rule the world

It's my own design, it's my own remorse,

Help me to decide, help me make the most

Of freedom and of pleasure,

Nothing ever lasts forever,

Everybody wants to rule the world

There's a room where the light won't find you

Holding hands while the walls come tumbling down

When they do, I'll be right behind you

So glad we've almost made it

So sad they had to fade it

Em F#m G A D G|D A|G |D A|

Everybody wants to rule the world

Pseudotab Solo:

e-----10-9-7---------------| | |

B--10--------10-7-8-10-----| (repeat 3x) then end with | |

G----------------------7---| | |

D--------------------------| | D--9-7-- |

I can't stand this indecision

Married with a lack of vision

Everybody wants to rule the world

Instrumental bit: |Bm |C |Bm |C |G |A |A/D G/D| |A/D G/D| |

Say that you'll never, never, never, never need it.

One headline, why believe it?

Everybody wants to rule the world.

All for freedom and for pleasure,

nothing ever lasts forever,

Everybody wants to rule the world

Outro: |A/D G/D | | repeat and fade
