Title: I Want To Be Brave...
Post by Thom_E_Yorke on Feb 15th, 2002, 8:53am
I've already post a message like this one... Few months later, i didn't find any tablature of sarah's songs...
So I try to do it myself using my powerful ears... ( Powerful ears ??? lol )

Here it is my first very own Tab ...  ;D
Standard tuning: EAGDBE
Capo: 3rd Fret


Am         ( Maybe a Kind of D/Dm )      
Madeleine, Shall her story end ?

F                     ( Maybe a Kind of D/Dm )
With this aftermath music, my broken french ?

Am        ( Maybe a Kind of D/Dm )      
Heal her, if you can

F                         ( Maybe a Kind of D/Dm )
Pray the lions aren't waiting, take her hand

F                G
I want to be brave, I want to be brave

C                  Am      
But the night goes up in flames

F                 G            
The courage we need, a fury to tame

Am            F      Em
This madness, madness


It seems to be fine ( not good or very good, just "fine" )... I have to re-listen the song again and again... until ... Sarah ( or maybe Steve ) tells me what are the right chords  :P

After re-listening and playing this song again and again, the "D/Dm" seems to be a "Em7" chord... It works better than the D/Dm chord...  ::)

Capo At The 1st Fret is better :D ( and of course Standard Tuning )

Everything became clear when I put the capo at the first fret like you did  ! :o
And, as a miracle, the "D" chord re-appears !!  ;D
Try it menagerie and say what you think about the few corrections :)

Bm: X13321
E:   022100
G:   32001X  or X55433 ( try it at different place... )
A:   002220  or 577655 ( idem... it's nice to hear the 6th string sometimes  )
D:   XX0232
D4: XX0233
F#: 244322

Bm            E
Madeliene, shall her story end?

Heal her, if you can

       G
Pray the lions aren't waiting

  E

        G                    A

I think my

    Bm               G
Madeliene, can I escape again?

       D                              A
Out of a dragonfly jar, am I safe yet?

at the end works, and the everything else you did sounds good.  But I am a bit unsure about our verses.  Your

Bm            E
Madeliene, shall her story end?
               
     G
With this aftermath music

     E
My broken French?

Doesn't quite sound right.  Nor does my Bm, G, D, A progression.  Of course, my ear isn't the best.  I'm always flat for some reason.  I wish Sarah or Hayden could clarify!

I chord, I don't tab because I dabble in piano more than guitar but you send me something of yours and I'll try to tab it.   Chord it.   I chorded johnxxiii but I dropped it a few keys because my voice is more Nico than Sarah.
