Matt Schofield Trio (http://www.mattschofield.net/index.html)
from Heads, Tails & Aces
*This "tab" combines some of the chords Matt plays with the organ
parts, for a little more structure and the sake of ease, since
he improvises variations of these chords most of the time.

==VERSE 1==
Could you want me, do you care?
Is it my imagination, or is the feeling really there?
Could you need me, is it true?
I know it's love I'm feeling, but I don't know bout you
==CHORUS 1==
All those words that you say, do they mean anything
Or is it just... what I wanna hear?
==VERSE 2==
Should I tell you, or let it go?
It's keeping me on the edge, I'm waiting just to know
I'm going crazy, My body's shaking
I need a cure for this fever to stop my head from aching
1==
==SOLO in F==
*Solo is over one progression of the verse and chorus each
*Schofield improvises in a variety of scales that fit in the key of F,
and gets a very bluesish/jazzy fusion... try to get this by combining
major and minor pentatonic licks, chromatic runs, and the Dorian mode
*Lots of legato... his tone is very smooth with plenty of slides,
hammer-ons and pull-offs
*Traverses the fretboard up and down very quickly, and often doesn't
stay in the same position for more than a couple of riffs... so try
soloing "diagonally"
==VERSE 3==
Maybe I'm missing those hidden signs
So I look into your eyes and try to read your mind
If I told you would you believe
And take away my misery, make my dreams reality
==OUTRO CHORUS==
All those words that you say,
All those words that you say,
All those words that you say, do they mean anything
Or is it just... what I wanna hear?
==OUTRO SOLO==
