The Nightingale Song by Toad the Wet Sprocket (off the Fear album) contributed by Ryan Houlette Revised by: Walter Tien Scott Josselyn (sjosselyn@aol.com) Okay, the song consists of a riff over the verses and then a simple chord progression for the chorus. Here's the riff: ------------------------------------------- ------3---------3---------3---------------- ----0---0-----0---0-----0---0-----0-------- ----------0---------0---------0---------0-- --0---------2---------3-------------0h2---- --------------------------------3---------- --------------------------3---------------- ------3---------3-----------0-------------- ----0---0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-------- ----------0---------0-------------------0-- --0---------2---------3-------------0h2---- --------------------------------3---------- it's basically a C chord with a walking bass note. Play the riff over the verses. [verse] we sing the the nightingale song alive streets never border further than my sight we sing the nightingale song alive we might be different but our hearts won't lie [chorus] F And little ever changes Am If anything at all D C G But the song sings loudly through these halls [verse] we sing the nightingale song alive we might be different but our hearts won't lie [chorus] F And little ever changes when you Am View it from the sky D The damage we encounter C G The earth just passes by F And little ever changes Am If anything at all D C G And we remind ourselves how small we are Play G with walking bass like intro A
