This majesticly hypnotic song (Texts of songs ) is probably my favorite from
this album. It's not too hard to play, either, I'm surprised
no one else has tabbed it yet. Here goes...
It opens with an acoustic guitar:
e|-0-----0---0-----0----0-------0-------0-------0-------0--------|
B|-3--3--3/5-5--5--5/6--6--6\5--5--5\3--3--3/5--5--5/6--6--------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
The main riff for the verse is this:
e|-------0---------------------0------------0---------|
B|----------3---------------------3------------3------|
G|----2------------%--------2------------2------------|(repeat)
D|-0--------------------------------------------------|
A|-----------------------1------------3---------------|
E|----------------------------------------------------|
And the "zero, zero, zero, zero, zero.." melody fades in&out:
e|--14---12------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------15---14------12---12------15---14------12-------|
G|-----------------------------------------------------------10--|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
** The chorus:
D F# G
She gave me a call...
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------|
G|--7----7-7-7\----------3----3-3-3------------4----4-4-4--------|
D|--7----7-7-7\----------4----4-4-4------------5----5-5-5--------|
A|--5----5-5-5\----------4----4-4-4------------5----5-5-5--------|
E|-----------------------2----2-2-2------------3----3-3-3--------|
A# A# C

Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As a world falls openwide
Like a wounded soldier falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
My lost awakening
I've found the same as life before
When after me another lonely wounded soldier falls
like light fantastic
that falls around my shoulder
fall
don't fall upon my shoulder
She gave me a call
So I gave her a smile
When I asked for her love
And what should I dial
...she said 'Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero'
Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As a world falls openwide
Like a wounded soldier falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
I gave her a car
So she gave me a smile
When I asked for her love
And what should I dial
