Galileo

GALILEO (Emily Saliers)

[Amy plays this in E, capoed up 1 to
 F.  Emily plays it in C with a
 capo on the fifth fret and her 
guitar tuned to DADGBC.  I'm going 
to
 write down Emily's chords, because 
they're easier and more interesting.
 If you want to play Amy's chords, 
you can figure them out; since it's
 in E, there are a lot of barre 
chords.]
[Actually, when I play this, I 
usually just play Emily's chords, 
but
 in standard tuning so I don't put 
my high E in danger of breaking when
 I tune back up.  If you play in 
standard tuning, play the verse as
 C G F G7-G6; it's pretty easy to 
play the G7 - G6 part, as long as
 you play G as 320003 with your 
pinky on the high E string.  Just 
play
 Em(C)/B as Em, and play D13 as D or
 D11.  The guitar solo needs no
 adjustment for standard tuning, 
because it uses the middle 4 
strings.]


[Each chord is half a measure, 
except "G7 - G6" is half a measure 
_total_.]

C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6   
[intro]
   C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6


C      Gsus           F6(9)      
  G7 - G6
C                Gsus        
   The crime was looking up the 
     F6(9)  G7 - G6
truth
C              Gsus              
   And as the bombshells of my 
F6(9)         G7 - G6
daily fears explode
         Am         Em(C)/B   
I try to trace them to my 
F6(9)   Gsus
youth

And then you had to bring up 
reincarnation
Over a couple of beers the other 
night
And now I'm serving time for 
mistakes
Made by another in another lifetime

    C            Gsus          
How long till my soul gets it 
F6(9)       Gsus
right?   Can any human
 C          Gsus               
being ever reach that kind of 
F6(9)     Gsus
light?  I call on the
Am       Em(C)/B   D13    D13
         F6(9)       Gsus   
King of night vision, king of 
   C      Gsus   F6(9)   Gsus
insight

Then I think about my fear of motion
Which I never could explain

Some other fool across the ocean 
years ago
Must have crashed his little 
airplane

How long till my soul gets it right?
Can any human being ever reach that 
kind of light?
         F6(9)       Gsus   
King of night vision, king of 
   C      C
insight

Am          Am       F/A        
   I'm not making a joke, you 
    F/A
know me
        F#dim/A  F#dim/A   F/A   
I take every - thing  so  
   F/A
seriously
      Am            Am         
If we wait for the time till all 
   F/A          F/A
souls get it right
        Gsus                  
Then at least I know there'll 
F6(9)      Gsus      F6(9)
be no nuclear annihilation
      C        Gsus            
in my lifetime; I'm still not 
F6(9)   Gsus
right

C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6   
[guitar solo]
   C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6

C    Gsus    F6(9)    G7 - G6   
[guitar solo]
   Am    Em(C)/B    D13    D13

F6(9)   Gsus      C   Gsus   
[guitar solo]
F6(9)   Gsus      C   Gsus   

F6(9)   Gsus


I offer thanks to those before me
That's all I've got to say
'Cause maybe you squandered big 
bucks in your lifetime
Now I have to pay

But then again it feels like some 
sort of inspiration
To let the next life off the hook
She'll say, "look what I had to 
overcome from my last life
I think I'll write a book"

How long till my soul gets it right?
Can any human being ever reach the 
highest light?
Except for the resting soul... (God 
rest his soul)
         F6(9)       Gsus   
King of night vision, king of 
   C      Gsus   F6(9)   Gsus
insight

     C            Gsus      
How long till my soul gets it 
   F6(9)   Gsus
right...
     C          Gsus            
How long till I meet that highest 
   F6(9)   Gsus
light...
     C   Gsus   F6(9)   Gsus   C.
How long?


CHORDS (tuning is DADGBC):

C: x32010    Gsus: 5x0030    F6(9): 
3x0010    G7: 5x0035    G6: 5x0034
Am: x02210   Em(C)/B: x22000*   D13:
 002200   F/A: x03210   F#dim/A: 
x04210

*this should probably be called 
Cmaj7/B, but in the context, it 
sounds more
 like E minor, so I'm calling it "E 
minor with an added C (and B bass)."



GUITAR SOLO TAB:

* The ^.^. marks are timing markers 
(each ^ is a quarter note).
* "tri" denotes a cluster of 
16th-note triplets.
* Any consecutive sixteenth notes 
that are on the same string are 
hammer-ons
 or pull-offs (or both).
* ~~ is a bend; \ is a slide down.
* Sorry it's kinda hard to read; I 
recommend buying the songbook 
anyway.
