SONG:   Horizontal Lines
ARTIST: LoveLikeFire
ALBUM:  (none; MySpace-released demo)
YEAR:   2007
TUNING: GDAE (standard)


This is a pretty simple song -- literally just two notes in the whole thing -- but it's not
as straightforward as it looks in the tab. Rhythm and cadence in bass is really important for
this song, and the pace shifts frequently. Listen closely.

I've tabbed the basic line; you can hear him throw in some higher octaves occasionally, and
other minor embellishments like that. Whether you use those as well is up to you.




  Tell me the perfect color
  Show me the ways and numbers
  Don't give it away

  What's the certainty?
  There's a known complication
  I don't want to know

  There's a long conversation hitting deep within your bosom
  And you've held onto nothing for way too long
  There are words long unspoken
  And a heart which hasn't broken
  But the time keeps on growing on and on

  On and on
  On and on


  See what you need
  Then you'll see there's no other way to be
  Take your time, don't be shy
  It's your time to shine

  Tell me the perfect color

  Show me the constellation
  Don't give it away
