From P.GERRARD@lse.ac.uk Fri Aug 1 11:44:16 1997 Date: Fri, 01 Aug 97 13:46:14 GMT From: P.GERRARD@lse.ac.uk To: mamster@u.washington.edu Subject: Chords for 'Regenisraen' If you're going to play along with the GT recording of 'Regenisraen' you should note that the guitars should be tuned down a half-step - I would guess that this is to make the 12-string acoustic easier to handle, but I could be wrong. The chorus posed a bit of a problem as far as transcription went. What I've done is written out the chords for the two times that the word 'Regenisraen' is sung in the foreground in full. (Does that make sense? If not, just change when the band changes and you should figure it out eventually.) Oh, and please be considerate of family, neighbours and housemates: although the Game Theory rendering of this song is heart-breakingly pretty, on a bad day any one of us could turn it into a sound-painting of a certain popular operation for tom-cats...
