Gillison tgilliso@risc.usi.edu or Saila@webtv.net Tune Down 1/2 step (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, eb) Notes: These rhythms are hard to tab, so you'll have to listen to the CD and get the number of strums down. That is hard to notate....Also, learn to use your pinky...Other- wise, you won't be able to play this song. It's pretty easy, once you learn the stretches, and the rhythms. Also, to my knowledge, Jeff or Emerson do *not* tune down 1/2 step, but I always do when I play most of their songs. They use a capo, which will raise the pitch, but not the key. Trust me, this is as close as you will get...Maybe just lower in pitch. Also, the lead is *not* transcribed...Only the rhythm. Sorry. Lastly, there a lot of individual notes that are simply picked within the chord structure....Hard to notate.... Again, listen to the CD....Please e-mail me with any corrections.

Verse riff again For the reasons out of our control You try to make it roll Like a dice away But you say that you're all empowered here This is obviously not clear enough To me Pre-chorus (A) You can bend...But you can't break.... You can't break Chorus (G) (A) (Dsus2) (A) Hey, little girl, keep dancin'....Hey, little girl.... (G) Keep dancin' alone, 'cause there's not enough time in (A) (C) your day to keep you here....
