Arid - Me And My Melody 

This is a correction of my previous 'me & my melody'-tab, the main difference is just a change of chord settings.


Lyrics: Jasper Steverlinck
Music: David Du Pré & Jasper Steverlinck

Tabbed by Jeroen Schepens (Jeroen.Schepens@rug.ac.be)

Chords: 

   Fmaj7 Am*  Dm*   E*  

e   0     0    0    0
B   1    10    6    0
G   2     9    7    9
D   3    10    7    9
A   3     0    5    7
E   1     x    x    0

If you should think these settings stink (which I don't think, since I've seen Jasper and David play it in a similar way), just use the basic Fmaj7, Am, Dm and E chords.


Intro: (the intro tab isn't correct, but that's the best I can do)

Guitar 1 
     (high F)
B ----------13--
G -------14-----
D ----15--------    (repeat several times, listen to cd for correct timing)
A -15-----------

Guitar 2 

e -8-7-------8-7----  (after several times, changed by: -8-10----
B -----10--------10-                                    ------10-
G ------------------
D ------------------

Guitar 3 (acoustic - played on electric guitar during live appearances)
starts strumming chord progression Fmaj7 - Am - Dm - E 
while guitars 1 & 2 play arpeggio's based on chords (not very difficult to find out, just listen to the song)

Verse 1:

Fmaj7                     Am*
Oh lord, pulling me down
                            Dm*
Oh darling, how weak this crown
                       E*
do you fail to understand

what's heartily now what's in your hand
Fmaj7              Am*   
Oh creature, oh love, strained now
                    Dm*                 E*
till we get enough I ain't afraid no more

as they batter down the door

Repeat same chords till end 

Who you are and what you say
you've built it up some other way
isn't that a crime, these tears divine
love you tear me up sometimes and
Oh darling you and me, stuck on time as we see
the outside world slip away till the dark,
the dark of the day
And who you are and what you say
What does it mean now anyway
throw off your crown, tread me down
oh bay stop all feelings now
And we're worlds apart
helpless as we are you and I walk on by
our little love will die
Still walking the bridge to God thinking things
that I cannot relate this to, what you say
bricks are falling down this day
Oh darling, the weeks to come ain't nothing
but the sound of your drum
you can stay or walk away
As I, I long to say
Who you are and what you say
babe we've lost now anyway isn't that a crime
these tears divine
a river 'round your waist sometimes.
Stuck in tears as we've gone too far
babe you've built a wall that's hard
getting through, getting through to you
Who you are and what you say
held down anyway Darling fear brought us here
Ooh, hey, Hold hands she don't want me tied
her hand still stuck in mine Baby I long to see
Hey you, my tears won't mend
Until the end
