SONG: Horizontal Lines
ARTIST: LoveLikeFire
ALBUM: (none; MySpace-released demo)
YEAR: 2007
TUNING: GDAE (standard)
This is a pretty simple song -- literally just two notes in the whole thing -- but it's not
as straightforward as it looks in the tab. Rhythm and cadence in bass is really important for
this song, and the pace shifts frequently. Listen closely.
I've tabbed the basic line; you can hear him throw in some higher octaves occasionally, and
other minor embellishments like that. Whether you use those as well is up to you.
Tell me the perfect color
Show me the ways and numbers
Don't give it away

What's the certainty?
There's a known complication
I don't want to know

There's a long conversation hitting deep within your bosom
And you've held onto nothing for way too long
There are words long unspoken
And a heart which hasn't broken
But the time keeps on growing on and on

On and on
On and on
See what you need
Then you'll see there's no other way to be
Take your time, don't be shy
It's your time to shine

Tell me the perfect color
Show me the ways and numbers
Tell me the thoughts you think of
Show me the constellation
Don't give it away
(2:34) (Now, it becomes more standard, uniform strumming.)
