Love You Til

Love You 'Til the Day I Die
(N. Finn)

NOTES:
-- Listening to this song, the 

-|guitar work sounds very complex.  I 

was pleasantly surprised to find out
 that the verses are constructed
on two chords.  However, Neil is 
adding a lot of other little licks
and "side chords" in between to make
 things interesting.  (for exam-
ple, one of his faves is an Em form 
like this:  X7978[10].)  I would
suggest you do your own goofing 
around and figure out what works.
-- The bridge ("Frost on the 

-|window pane...") is particularly 

tricky 

in this song, but once you get the 
fingerings down, it flows beauti-
fully.


INTRO:   B7*  Em*  B7  Em  B7  Em

B7
There's closets in my head where 
dirty things are kept
     Em
That never see the light of day
B7
I want to drag them out, go for a 
walk
        Em
Just to see the look that's on your 
face
B7
Sometimes I can't be straight I 
don't want to hurt you
      Em
So forgive me if I tell a lie
Continues after the ad
B7
Sometimes I come on cold but don't 
believe it
       Em
I will love you till the day I die

[*** NOTE:  See below for guitar tab
 for this chorus]
Em  G        F#m           A   
I believe in doing things 
     Em  G  F#m  A
backwards
Em   G           F#m             
Take heed, start doing things in 
  A      Em  G  F#m  A
reverse


Here comes trouble, there's nothing 
wrong when I relax
I'm talking to myself you're coming 
with me
Teaching you how to distort the 
facts
Sometimes I can't be straight I 
don't want to hurt you
So forgive me if I tell a lie
Sometimes I come on cold but don't 
believe it
I will love you till the day I die

I believe in doing things backwards
Take heed, start doing things in 
reverse

Em                       B*
Frost on the window pane, the sound 
of pouring rain
G/B*                 G(11)/B*
All makes me glad of you
C                B          C   
Though I am far away I am always
           Em  G  F#m  A
 with you

Em       G        F#m           
Know the answer before you know 
    A
the question
Em
Pull yourself together, baby, push 
with all your might
Em      B     G/B      G(11)/B
I'm all alone, always alone
C                B
Though I am far away
       C         B(VII)
I am always with you
