Barcelona

[kjm030584]

Okay, there are seriously no good tabs for this song. But I want Bobby and Kiera, or anybody else who plays, to try this one and tell me if it's alright. This is the way I've always played it:

Barcelona - Jewel
Drop D tuning DADGBe

D (000232)
E (2221xx)
A (7776xx)
F#(444xxx)
G (5554xx)


D(upward strum) E
Barcelona where the winds all blew
D
the churches don't have windows
E
but the graveyards do
D E
me and my shadow are wrestling again
D E
look out stranger, there's a dark cloud movin in


A
but if you could hear the voice in my heart
E
it would tell you
A E
i'm afraid i'm alone
F#
won't someboy please hold me
E
release me show me the meaning of mercy let me loose
A G F# E
flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
A G F# E
let me flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
D
let me fly
-----------------------------------------

*repeat chords*
super paranoid
i'm blending i'm blurring i'm bleeding
into the scenery
loving someone else is always so much easier
i hold myself hostage in the mirror

but if you could hear the voice in my heart
it would tell you
i'm tired of feeling this way
god won't you please hold me release me
show me the meaning of mercy let me loose
flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
let me flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
--------------------------------------

G F#
and i won't be held down
E G
i won't be held back
F# E
i will lead with my faith

D(upward strum) E
the red light has been floowing me
D E
but don't worry mother, it's no longer my gravity
F# E
hold me release me show me
A G F# E
the meaning of mercy let me flyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
A G F# E
let me flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
A G F# E D
let me flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy


you need to listen to the song to get the strumming rhythm and it sounds good if you slide to the A chord from the E chord in the part: "and if you could hear the voice in my heart"

Anyhoo, enjoy and tell me what you think.

I'v always loved the guitar sound on this song, its nice and mellow all the way through...well i think so if any others dont!!!
..err although i cant actualy play guitar....last time i ever went near anything guitar based was a bass guitar and that was like 4-5 years ago now and that was easy riffs from the likes of Slayer etc

Kyle:

Those tabs work well for me BUT I do like the F#M instead of the F# in this song. I also like the progression A,G,D,E in the 'let me fly' part.

I am in the process of re-tabbing the song Emily. The ones on the net are not correct at all. There is a vid out there of her playing it for an interviewer and I can see some of her fingering. From there it's been a matter of singing it and placing the fingerpicking to go with it. I am 99% there. Just tweaking. When I am done, I will post it.
