"Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"
Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream
Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me
You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

Subject: TAB: Just Like Heaven (solo's too)
Measurements of time
====================
' = 1/32
^ = 1/16
. = 1/8
! = 1/4
o/ = half note
o = whole note
Other notation
==============
a+b (where a and b are measurements of time) =
add 'a' plus 'b' more time on that note
(e.g.) !+. means a quarter note + an eighth of a note time
******************
.__. = means that the previous note connects over
(in other words, don't play the other note)
******************
As everyone knows by now, the chords to this song are:
A E Bm D
-0- -0- -2- -2-
-2- -0- -3- -3-
-2- -1- -4- -2-
-2- -2- -4- -0-
-0- -2- -2- -x-
-x- -0- -x- -x-
If you already know the timing to the notes, then you can just look at
the notes and 'feel' your way through. If you don't know the timing,
you can try to figure out what the timing is by looking at the time
I put at the bottom of each TAB. It may be confusing at first, but you'll
get used looking at it. I tried using music notation as close as possible.
I'm pretty sure the notes and time are correct, though I may be wrong.
Remember, if you don't like this version, there other versions of JLH in
ftp sites.
Corrections, additions, and/or distributions are encouraged, but please
give credit where credit is due.
Comments are also welcome. :)
