Gud Lyrics

[smuffy]

During my enforced break last week, I got bored enough to work out some of the chords to a couple of GUD songs. Anyone else done the same? I've so far worked out:
-Ivan Milat
-Chopper Reid
-Snowtown (still in progress)
-Transcended
-Centre of Faith (troubles with lyrics but, anyone know them???)
The first three are almost identical, lazy boys!
*I have a very good memory*

[Beckslee]

Me, Me, Me, Me Me!!!

I know the first couple are almost the same.

I've also done a couple, mostly cam's little ditties, but I've also started working on Ruby. with a bit on encouragement I'd probably finish it.

[smuffy]

Beckslee, pretty please finish Ruby! A little tip - if you're a Crowded House fan, tune your guitar to 'Weather With You', and you'll have the same tuning as Mick!!!
My next big project - the Saddam Medley, and I'm determined NOT to cheat!
*Goes to tutorial singning An An An Anthrax! You mixed the batch George wants it back Anthrax!*
On Paul/Mick related songs, I have also worked out 'Mercy'.

*points* zinja!!! there it is. after that night trying to remember the words there they are!!!

On Paul/Mick related songs, I have also worked out 'Mercy'.

I've had the chords for that for ages.

Let me know what other songs you may want, I have a folder full of paul related charts as well as one or two tripod songs

[Amey]

Would you be able to post the tabs for Trancended?? i would be forever greatful!!

[smuffy]

OK! I stuck them up after last year's show, and provoked a discussion on the lyrics. I need to point out that I had never had a guitar lesson in my life (or piano lessons since my Mum, who was teaching me, died fifteen years ago), so my musical theory is non-existent (to the point that I can never remember the names of the strings). The trickier chords I've written may seem a bit wierd. Thanks to Crowded House, the masters of the bizarre chords!!! I'm open to any suggestions / corrections.
Transcended.
Intro.
G Em C D D* D
G Em
You float, you float across the sea
C D D* D
They say you guarantee, you've transcended
G Em
And you fly, you fly across the sky
C D D* D
Your arms are open wide, you've transcended
G G*
You've transcended
C D G G*
Go, child, go and find the arms that warm you
C D G G*
Know, child, know no arm would ever harm you
C D G G*
Run, wild, finally found the thoughts that calm you
C D
Waiting, for silence to call
G Em
In space, you can barely breathe
C D D* D
I'll tell you what you'll need, to transcend it
G Em
If you hope, to another soul
C D D* D
Then when they let you go, you'll transcend it
G G*
You'll transcend it
C D G G*
Go, child, go and find the arms that warm you
C D G G*
Know, child, know no arm will ever harm you
C D G G*
Run, wild, finally found the thoughts that calm you
C D D7
So stretch out, stretch out and smile
G Em C D D* (x2)
Ohh la la (x8) (4 for each of the previous chord sequences)
G Em
With faith, you can barely speak
C D D* D
I'll tell you what you need, to transcend it
G Em
And the night, the night is dawn again
C D D* D
We didn't understand, transcended
G Em
If you hope, to another soul
C D D* D
Then when they let you go, you'll transcend it
G Em
And in space, you can barely breathe

C D D* D
I'll tell you what you need, to transcend it
G Em
In space, you can barely breathe
C D
You can barely breathe, you can barely breathe

G* 323002

Has any one got the lyrics to the 'so you want to change the world...' song? It's name excapes me at present!
Cheers

[smuffy]

Oh I love my computer! The song is called 'Peace of Man', according to the set list my friend nicked after one of the Fringe Festival gigs (ahh, the memories. 40 people in the room and the boys on stage for over two hours, Paul with glitter in his hair from the WoE curtain call).
This was before Paul decided to fuck it up with his weird Catholic stuff (it used to be at a different point). This is written on my flat door. Give me 48 hours and I might even have the chords up!

PEACE OF MAN.

So you want to change the world today
Fill the earth with laughter so you say
With anything you can imagine
Don't you know you can make it happen
But you just sit there, you just sit there

Yeah go out and hug a tree
Try and free the refugees
Global warming heating up
Ozone layer heavy stuff
But you just sit there, you just sit there
Sit there like a piece of shit
For that's exactly what you are (pure human excrement)
That's exactly what you are,
Fecal matter with a mouth
People don't even know your real name anymore
They just call you Mr Stinky.

So you want to dream out loud
Save the whales surf the crowd
Stop all wars make love find peace
Get the terrorists released
And feed the children, feed the children
Feed the children to the priests

You say the world won't change alone
Until it does you'll stay at home
Well let me introduce my fist
To you You half-arsed activist
Cos you just sit there, you just sit there
Sit there like a piece of shit
For that's exactly what you are (kick the bludgers off the dole)
That's exactly what you are,
Fecal matter with a mouth (ignore Kyoto protocol)
People don't even know your real name anymore
They just call you Mr Howard.

*giggles and reminisces*

[kali]

Thank you thank you thank you!

*runs in have circles singing*

Smuffy you are so excellent!

[smuffy]

Aww, shucks.
Was it just my computer that showed up all the apostophies as bizarre number / punctuation combinations? If not, sorry about that. I've fixed it now. It was fine when I posted it.

[Munchkin]

I really like the Catholic stuff

[kali]

woohoo....
* mmm wonders what else she would find on smuffy's computer *

[smuffy]

I really like the Catholic stuff too, especially the moving tents bit. I just don't like it in the song because I absolutely love the song (one of my all time favourites).
