------------------------------------------------------------ BY THIS RIVER - Brian Eno ------------------------------------------------------------ Tabbed and arranged for guitar by: Matteo Tognela Email: [email protected] Tuning: Eb Ab D G B e This weird tuning is the only way I've come up with to play the song in its original key. Except for the bass note, shifting from Bb -> G -> Eb -> G the melody repeats itself through the 4 sections. The chord progression is Bb Gm Eb Gm. Listen to the original song to catch the timing. Maybe I'll put something for the solo in Ver.2, for now just hum ;-) Enjoy =) e |-6-5-----|----------|---------|--------| B |-----6---|-6--------|---------|--3====-| G |-------7-|-----6--8-|--5---5--|--0====-| D |---------|---8------|--3---5--|--------| Bb|-0======-|-========-|-0-------|--0====-| Eb|---------|----------|---------|--------| IV--------- e |-6-5-----|----------|---------|--------| B |-----6---|-6--------|---------|--3====-| G |-------7-|-----6--8-|--5---5--|--0====-| D |---------|---8------|--3---5--|--------| Bb|---------|----------|---------|--------| Eb|-4======-|-=--------|-4-------|--4====-| e |-6-5-----|----------|---------|--------| B |-----6---|-6--------|---------|--3====-| G |-------7-|-----6--8-|--5---5--|--0====-| D |---------|---8------|--3---5--|--------| Bb|---------|----------|---------|--------| Eb|-0======-|-========-|-0-------|--0====-| IV--------- e |-6-5-----|----------|---------|--------| B |-----6---|-6--------|---------|--3====-| G |-------7-|-----6--8-|--5---5--|--0====-| D |---------|---8------|--3---5--|--------| Bb|---------|----------|---------|--------| Eb|-4======-|-=--------|-4-------|--4====-| Lyrics: Here we are Stuck by this river, You and I Underneath a sky that's ever falling down, down, down Ever falling down. Through the day As if on an ocean Waiting here, Always failing to remember why we came, came, came: I wonder why we came. You talk to me as if from a distance And I reply With impressions chosen from another time, time, time, From another time.
