The last intro bar looks like this: Guitar 1: Guitar 2: --------------| |--------------- --------------| |--------------- --------------| |--------------- --5-5-4---7---| |---9-9-7------- --------5-----| |---------7-0--- --------------| |--------------- Guitar tacet, drums by the one and only Brian Downey! (one bar or something..) *Verse 1: Tacet Am Don't believe me if I tell you Dm (C) G Not a word of this is true Am G F Don't believe me if I tell you.. 'Specially if I tell you Dm C G I'm in love with you The guitar playing in the verses are power/barre chords (Ex: Am G F progression). Where a chord is played for a "long" time, play this figure instead of the chord: Over Dm: Over Am: Over Em -----------------------| |-------------------- +2 compared to Dm -----------------------| |-------------------- -------(8)-(7)-(8)-----| |--------(6)-(5)--(6)- --------10--8---10-----| |---------8---6----8--- -----------------------| |-------------------- --8--8-----------------| |---5--5------------ Both guitars play bass tones, then Git1 "parenthesised" notes, Git2 the others. *Verse 2: Don't believe me if I tell you That I wrote this song for you That's just not for some other silly pretty girl (alt: "pretty silly",live I'm singing to version) *Bridge (or is this the chorus.. never mind): Em Dm Don't believe a word, the words are so easily spoken Am And your heart is just like that promise.. made to be broken *Solo Same chord progression as the verses, play it twice. My suggestion: A pentatonic, harmonic minor or "blues scale". Scott Gorham (I guess its him) plays with wah-wah and Les Paul guitar. *Bridge again Em Dm Don't believe a word, 'cause word's can tell (them) lies Am But them lies ain't no comfort, when there's tears in your eyes. *Verse 3: Repeat first verse.. *Outro (slight, barely audible wah fills..) G Am G F Don't believe a word G Am G F No don't believe a word G Am G F Don't believe it, don't believe it G Am G F Not a single word Hey don't!!
