WAITING:Kevin Gilbert. www.kevingilbert.com Tanscribed for acoustic guitar by John Morrell. ( www.johnmorrell.de) All corrections welcome. Please listen to how it´s played on the album ´THUD´.or elsewhere. My tablature skills are poor and there are slight variations. This is based on various versions i´ve heard. This is the main riff: Tuning : E A D G B C# Although , on the live ´record store ´video he´s playing straight tuning. It´s all played on this chord and shape.: x46600 | | | | | | | | | |--------0---------------|--------0---------------|--------0---------------| |--------0---------------|--------0---------------|--------0---------------| |--------6-------6-------|--------6---------------|--------6---------------| |----------------6-------|5-----------5---4-------|----------4-------------| |4-----------4-----------|------------------------|6-----------6---5-------| |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| | | | | | | | | | |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| |4-----------------------|------------------------|------------------------| |------------------------|------------------------|------------------------| I'm waiting for the apple, I'm waiting for the fall I'm waiting for a renaissance to electrify us all I'm waiting for the mailman to bring me news of friends I'm waiting through the middle just to see how it will end, how it wil end Chords used in chorus: Gm9 - 355336 B flat 6 - 686766 E flat M7 - 668786 E flat 7 - 668686 I am waiting for love to come I'm waiting for you to run C#m and I'm waiting for wonder to return.( go straight in to riff ) I'm waiting for the confidential files to be released I'm waiting for the index on my fear to be increased I'm waiting for the judgment of the living and the dead I'm waiting for the Pagan times that surely are ahead I'm waiting for the show to start, the one I paid to see I'm waiting for the good things that are coming back to me, comin´back to me...
