Ben Harper's Glory and Consequence from The Will to Live
This song is tabbed out for a guiter tuned to E (EADGBe),
but Ben tunes his guitars down to D(DGCFAd) and then plays this
tune a tone higher, i.e A, but you can still play along
as if the tune was in G.
Riff 1
Clean
[F] [C] [G]
e---1----------------------3--------------------3--------------------3-| B---1----------------------5--------------------3--------------------3-| G---2-------0h2p0----------5--------0h2p0-------4--------0h2p0-------4-| D---3--0--2-------3p2p0----5--0--2-------3p2p0--5--0--2-------3p2p0--5-| A---3----------------------3--------------------5--------------------5-| E---1-------------------------------------------3--------------------3-|
This is both the intro riff and the chorus riff, and the chord
structure also does for the solo.
the verse riff goes like this
[C] [F] [G]
e----3---------------1-------------------------------------| B----5---------------1-------------------------------------| G----5---------------2-------------------------------------| D----5---------------3--------5----------------------------| A----3---------------3--------5----------------------1--1--| E--------------------1--------3--1--3--1--3--1--3--1-------|
there are two guitars playing at this point, with the acoustic playing
the above riff, and an electric just playing the chords.
Lyrics:
[C]i'm more af[F]raid of li[G]ving [C]than i a[F]m scared to d[G]ie
[C]im more afr[F]aid of fal[G]ling [C]than i a[F]m of flying h[G]igh
[F]every mo[C]ral has a s[G]tory [F]and every st[C]ory has an [G]end
[F]every ba[C]ttle has its g[G]lory [F]and its c[C]onsequ[G]ence
(repeat the above pattern)
im more afraid of loving than i am of being scorned
but i will keep on trying though i have been forewarned
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
i would rather be lonely and you have someone to hold
im not as scared of dying as i am of growing old
every moral has a story and every story has an end
every battle has its glory and its consequence
Maybe ill get around to tabbing the solo a bit later. till then
