Sting - Valparaiso Guitar Tabs I tabbed this myself from the violin sheet music. It is only the melody and is fairly simple, but in the original song, sting sings acapella with only a violin and guitar doubling the exact melody line. I have the tab for all the parts except the bridge, which is noted in the lyrics. -------------------------------------2---3-------| ---------------------5-------3-------------------| ---------------------------------------------4---| ----2-----4--5-----------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------| ---------3--2--------0---2--3---0-------------------| ----2------------2---------------------0-----4------| ----------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------| ----------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------2----3--------| ---------------------5----3------------------| ------------------------------------------4--| ----2------4---5-----------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------------------| --------------------5--3--5-3-1----0--------------------| ---------------0---------------------------2-----0------| --2-----4-----------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------------------| --------------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------------| ---------------------5----3------0-----------------| ----------------------------------------2----0-----| ----2------4--5---------------------------------2--| ---------------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------------| -----7---7---5----5---3---3---2---2---0---0------| -------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| -------------------------------------------------| Ending: --8---8---7---7---5---5---3---3---2---2---0--| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| ---------------------------------------------| Lyrics: Chase the dog star Over the sea Home where my true love is waiting for me Rope the south wind Canvas the stars Harness the moonlight So she can safely go Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso Red the port light Starboard the green How will she know of the devils I've seen Cross in the sky, star of the sea Under the moonlight, there she can safely go Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso Valparaiso And every road I walked would take me down to the sea With every broken promise in my sack And every love would always send the ship of my heart Over the rolling sea If I should die And water's my grave She'll never know if I'm damned or I'm saved See the ghost fly over the sea Under the moonlight, there she can safely go Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso Valparaiso Valparaiso Valparaiso
