Vortex Surfer

intro:      Bm-A-Em7-Em7


Bm-A-Em7-Em-7
And if she said so, I would believe it all.
And if she said so, I would cushion her fall.
And if it felt right, she’d let me know the plan and take my hand,
and explain to me so I could understand --- why she said so.


guitar-solo:   G-A-Bm-Bm-G-A-H5 ...slide into next verse...


Bm-A-Em7-Em7
Cause if she said so, it would be too much like death.
Cause if she said so, I would eat her breath.
Cause if she said so, I’d know all the lies but I’d wipe out wide,
and never even ask the reason why --- she said so.


G-A-Bm-Bm - G-A ...slide into the first loud part...
And never stop, go back to start.
And never say, when I fall apart.
And never stoop to complain --- about the pain.

...haven't been bothered to transcribe the quiet guitar part yet...

G-A-Bm-Bm - G-A-  |: Bb-Bm :|
And never stop, go back to start.
And never say, when I fall apart.
And never stoop to complain ---  about the pain
               about the pain
               about the pain
               about the pain.


end: Bb-G5-D

First tune your guitar like this : DADGAD 

then play these chords for the intro/verse:

B    A    E
0    0    0
0    0    0
4    2    9
4    2    9
2    0    7

Note: I`m not sure about the last chord. Get the rhythm right.

Lame attempt at the solo:

5 th string: 5 7 9 12   5 7 9 4  5 7 9 2  4 5 7 9 bend and release
                           12
             5 7 9 12   12    14^12 10 12 bend    10 12 bend


            D     E      B      A  
and never stop

D

I`m at the library and my time`s up but I`ll try to mail you the rest 
later.
