Grant Lee Buffalo Storm Hymnal - Gems From The Vault Of Grant Lee Buffalo - 2001 Disk I: Takes CHORDS Please e-mail your corrections, questions and suggestions: vladimirroman@hotmail.com Vladimir Roman Tune guitar down half a step to play along: Eb Bb Gb Db Ab Eb. 11. HOMESPUN ----- Comments: 1. The last E in the 2nd and the 3rd Choruses start the Solo and the Outtro/Solo. 2. In the Chorus there's surely no A and F#m. I think my variant is closer to the original. 3. Piano chords Bass Chord E (here) E b - e - g# Esus4 (here) E b - e - a 4. Guitar chords Esus4 F#sus4 F#sus4/7 e[0] e[x] e[0] b[0] b[x] b[0] g[2] g[x] g[4] d[2] d[4] d[4] a[2] a[4] a[4] e[0] e[2] e[2] 5. By playing F#sus4 don't touch the high 'e' and 'b' strings. In F#sus4/7 sound all strings. 'Special stress' is laid on e and b strings. ----- Intro: E Esus4 E Esus4 B5 Bm A x2 Verse 1: E Bm A E Faithless on the skids hung out to dry oh seen better days Bm A E With the sunlight fading like a tabloid and I I have found Bm A E All those double-barreled freedom fighters are in for themselves Bm A F#sus4 And a call to arms has never been about anything else Chorus: F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Fire one more round F#sus4/7 F#sus4 But hate is not a lone assailant F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Hear the drummers pound E Bm Listen to the homespun violent sound Verse 2: E Bm A E Hatred on the prowl underneath an oh new guise garb and gown Bm A E And he's so persuasive when you look in his eyes all dumbfound Bm A E And the double-talkin' politicians expose their intimate lives Bm A F#sus4 While the sheep are lowing for the shepherd to show he never arrives Chorus: F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Fire one more round F#sus4/7 F#sus4 But hate is not a lone assailant F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Hear the drummers pound E Bm Listen to the homespun violent sound E Bm Sound E Bm Sound Middle part: D Ooh I'll tell you how it A Pains to say this E D Ugliness is ours A 'Cause I would better lay in bed and G Maybe even sleep all day F#m7 Maybe sleep some more E Some more Solo: E Bm A e[--------------------------------11------------------------> b[----------9-b(12)11-9-b(12)11-9----9-b(10)9-8-8-----------> (bend) (bend) (bend) E Bm A e[----------------------11-----------11---------------------> b[----------9-b(12)11-9----b(12)11-9----9-b(10)9-8-8--------> (bend) (bend) (bend) Too E Bm A e[--11-9-11-9-9-11-9-11-9-11-9-b(12)11-9-16-9-b(12)11-9-9---> b[----------------------------------------------------------> (bend) (bend) E Bm A e[--11-9-11-9-9-11-9-11-9-11-9-b(12)11-9-16-9-b(10)9-7-7----] b[----------------------------------------------------------] (bend) (bend) Yeah now Verse 3: E Bm A E Suspicion is a powerful religion when it leads to the force on these shores Bm A E In the jungles of the Midwest dwarf militia train for war right on course Bm A E Unlike the famous fable revolution won't yield a firework show Bm A F#sus4 Unlike the famous fable revolution won't end on July the Fourth Chorus: F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Fire one more round F#sus4/7 F#sus4 But hate is not a lone assailant F#sus4/7 F#sus4 Hear the drummers pound E Bm Listen to the homespun violent sound E Bm Sound E Bm Sound E D Sound E Yeah sound Outtro/Solo: E Bm A x3 E Bm A E Yeah the homespun sound Bm A I hear the sound E Yeah the homespun sound E Bm A F#sus4/7 F#sus4 ----- P.S. How to play Homespun's Chorus on the piano: 1. Use the following chord: Bass Chord F#sus4(7) F# f# - b - c# - e 2. F#sus4(7) Play it in the end of the Verse (For example: '...anything else...') and press the pedal to let it sound longer. Instead of F#sus4/7 chord mentioned in the guitar transcription above play just the 'E' bass note, while this F#sus4(7) sounds. This 'E' bass should be located HIGHER then the 'F#' bass note of the F#sus4(7) chord. ***** F#sus4(7)------(still sounds)-------------------- anything else ---------------------'E'-'E'-'E'--F#sus4(7))---------------- Fire one more round ----------------------------------'E'-'E'-''EE'--F#sus4(7)-- But hate is not a lone assailant ----------------------------------'E'-'E'-''EE'--F#sus4(7)-- Hear the drummers pound ------------------------------ E Bm Listen to the homespun violent sound ***** 3. Let the pedal go up before 'refreshing' the F#sus4(7) chord and pressing it again. -----
