Ice On The Road

from Fear Of Girls Tabbed by: Ben Gladdle ([email protected]) Really quite simple (the way I play it!) but an utterly amazing song. Intro: ----- E---4--5-----12-11--------5--4----12-11--------- B---4--5-----------10-----5--4----------9------- G---4--6------------------6--4------------------ D---6--7------------------7--6------------------ A---6--7------------------7--6------------------ E---4--5------------------5--4------------------ The verse is just the same but without the high notes. verse: This is the season of confession and I'll listen to all of this There's no tokenism I'm all ears to truth because my duty's all too clear When you can't see the light for the tears She's left you for the dawn And dawn don't forget A young man with an old heart, And mind full of fear It's not that there's no connection She's not your mother just a candle burning bright Burning right on through You've taken on a trust and now she'll undo And this ain't the last time that it happens to you Who knows what time is or to be blind is? That's for you to choose It's dark in this neck of the woods But it's the woods that you choose intro: verse: Every word is a gesture On her part to you But it's slicing your soul and soon you'll get old The ice on the road Is be your destination right though So am I getting through to you friend? You can share all the night Or the wine that you like But there's no use now hoping or weeping or moping 'cause chorus: You've given her your trust and now she'll undo And this ain't the last time that it happens to you Who knows what time is or to be blind is? That's for you to choose It's dark in this neck of the woods But that's the woods that you choose Bridge: ------ In time you've grown older and no less unglued You're gonna smoulder until someone loves you And I'll be that true friend but that just won't do You've got to go through this because it's eating you It's eating you What's eating you? What's eating you? What's eating you? Someone'll change all of that It's true (other words I can't quite pick out) etc. Repeat with chorus chords with solo etc and then feedback. End on an E and then mess around with it and the intro riff.
