Love is Blindness - In The Name of Love Version

I just heard the absolutely HAUNTING version of "LIB" from the "In The Name of Love" Africa tribute album.... wow.

Can anybody tab these chords out?

Everyone should have some GibsonGirl in their music collection.

Those all sound awful, though... I really should get back into the habit of recording again, now that I actually have a good guitar and a real bass.

As for LIB...I don't really have the time at the moment to tab all of the fingerpicking variations out, or the second guitar in the background. I can give you the basic chords for the first guitar, though.

With Capo on 1st Fret:

Code:
Verses:

|---|  |---|  |---|  |---|  |---|  |---|  |---|
|-1-|  |-0-|  |-0-|  |-0-|  |-1-|  |-0-|  |-1-|
|-2-|  |-2-|  |-2-|  |-2-|  |-2-|  |-1-|  |-2-|
|-2-|  |-2-|  |-3-|  |-3-|  |-2-|  |-0-|  |-2-|
|-0-|  |-x-|  |-x-|  |-x-|  |-0-|  |-2-|  |-0-|
|---|  |-3-|  |-1-|  |-1-|  |---|  |-0-|  |---|

Note - there is usually a hammer-on during the first Am chord:

e|--------------|
B|-0h1----1-----|
G|------2----2--|
D|----2-----2---|
A|-0------0-----|
E|--------------|


"A little death..."

|-1-|  |-0-|  |---|  |---|  |-0-|  |-0-|  |---|
|-3-|  |-1-|  |-0-|  |-1-|  |-3-|  |-1-|  |-0-|
|-3-|  |-2-|  |-1-|  |-2-|  |-3-|  |-2-|  |-1-|
|-3-|  |-2-|  |-0-|  |-2-|  |-3-|  |-2-|  |-0-|
|-1-|  |-0-|  |-2-|  |-0-|  |-1-|  |-0-|  |-2-|
|---|  |---|  |-0-|  |---|  |---|  |---|  |-0-|
With the verses, I find that it's easier if I keep my second and third fingers in that A minor position, then use my pinky/index finger to add in the bass notes.

Hope that helps, at least until I have the time to give it a closer listen.
