Tabbed by Fred Lidskog

This is another one of my favorites by Oasis, truly an epic song and

another where our lads are accompanied by a string and horn section.

There's alot of weird chords used in this song, and the chords and

fills are sort of hard to hear (especially in the intro) because of the

string section, so keep an open mind when you see this transcription on

paper, because if you play the song, you'll hear these chords are pretty

much the right ones.

Chords used:

EADGBe

Am (x02210)

A7sus4 (x02030) or try (x05430)

Fmaj7/A (x03210)

C/B (x2x010)

C (x32010)

D (xx0232)

E (022100)

E7 (020100)

F (x33211)

G (3x0033)

Tab Key:

b = bend (7b8 means bend string at 7th fret to make approximately the note

the string would make if played at the 8th fret with no bend

r = release bend

h = hammer on

s = slide (a quick slide, sounds like one note)

/ = a slide where you play the first note, THEN slide to the second

() = harmonics, lightly touch the string directly above the fret listed

and then pick the string

Intro:

-----

Chords used in intro:

Am (x07500)

Am/G# (x06500)

Am7 (x05500)

Am/F# (x04500)

Fmaj7/A (x03500)

Am/D (x00500)

E7 (020100)

So here it goes:

THEN: Repeat intro chords one more time through, with the second guitar

picking notes from the chords in a kind of random pattern, but which can

basically played like this:

D-7----------------7--7--6----------------6--6--5--etc.---|

Verse 1

-------

Take the time to make some sense

of what you want to say

and cast your words away upon the waves

Sail them home with acquiesce

On a ship of hope today

And as they land upon the shore

Tell them not to fear no more

Say it loud, and sing it proud today And then

Chorus:

-------

Dance if you wanna dance

Please brother take a chance

You know they're gonna go

Which way they wanna go

All we know is that we don't

Know how it's gonna be

Please brother let it be

Life on the other hand

won't make you understand

We're all part of the masterplan

NOTE: This little musical interlude has a guitar solo part being played

backwards. The following is that part tabbed as it sounds backwards.

Say it loud and sing it proud today

Verse 2

-------

I'm not saying right is wrong

It's up to us to make

The best of all the things that come our way

'Cos everything that's been has passed

The answer's in the looking glass

There's four and twenty million doors

Down life's endless corridor

Say it loud and sing it proud today

And then

[CHORUS same]

Musical Interlude

OUTRO (same as INTRO)
