Earlier this week I posted a request for Peter Gabriel`s "Solsbury Hill",
and a number of folks either sent the "nevada" version or directed me
there. (Thanks everyone!) It turns out that though the chords on "nevada"
are basically right, the tab for the instrumental bits weren`t even close.
Also, the display of the chords over the lyrics was misleading. So, I
worked on it in order to improve the tab. The lyrics come from
`/pub/music/lyrics/g/gabriel.peter/volume.1`....I made some real minor
modifications. I`ll send this to nevada after I`ve posted it.

The song IS in the key of B, but the capo should be on the FOURTH fret
rather than the second. It makes it sound a lot better! The chords of the
instrumental bits tend to be rapidly arpeggiated (perhaps they`re
finger-picked, but I do better flat-picking quickly...), and the chords of
the verses are strummed, with some light appregiation prior to each vocal
phrase. [The vertical bars represent phrases, not actual measures].

Instrumental: Section A (1X), then Section B (1X)

When illusion spin her net
I`m never where I want to be

Today I don`t need a replacement
I`ll tell them what the smile on my face meant
My heart going boom boom boom
"Hey" I said "You can keep my things,
they`ve come to take me home."
