Gold To Me
----------
Artist: Ben Harper
Album: Fight For Your Ming
Transcribtion & Tab: Briac PILPRE
Tuning: DADDAD (from high to low, or low to high, as you want!)
Okay for this one I'll use a chord-like presentation, but when
you see the chord name, you'll have to do a slide up to the chord
(i.e. if it's a G chord, you'll have to slide from F# to G). It's
only for the verse...
For the chorus the strumming technique is really weird. You've got
to rest your guitar on your lap, strum in dead note and lay your slide
on every start of measure (I don't know if I'm very clear, but, anyway,
listen to the record to catch the rythm)
Also, I know there's some mistakes in this transcribtion, so any
comment/ correction/ help in any way would be appreciated!)
so here's the chords for this song:
D A D D A D
F 3 3 3 3 3 3
G 5 5 5 5 5 5
D XII 121212121212
A 7 7 7 7 7 7
G
you look like gold to me
F
and I'm not to blind to see
D
you look like gold
you make me want to say
with all the joy you bring
you look like gold
Like the rays down from the sun
when a new day has just begun
you look like gold
A F
I've been fooled before
A G
but now I know
A F
I've made the mistake in the past
A G
but now I know the difference
A D
from gold and brass
not the kind of gold that you wear
but the kind that can feel my care
you look like gold
some shine when the day is new
but fade when the day is through
but you look like gold
I've been wrong before
but now I know
I've made mistakes in the past
but now I know the difference
from gold and brass
solo:
(You really need to play on an high action guitar with heavy strings
in order to avoid pull-of buzzes with the slide...)
